How do I get the best sound?


I have a new work shop I have just built and have it equipped with BOSE 301 speakers. I have three sets along with a KLIPSCH 12" sub, to power this I am using a YAMAHA 7.2 receiver. I have placed the speakers in all four corners and two in the center. I am looking to get the best sound out of this system and need some advice. I am having trouble with to many echoes and the bose speakers are fighting each other. What can I do short of putting foan all over the walls to absorb the waves?

Although I aggree with some of the above I do like the Bose for what they are. try getting the fround out of the cornors that will help alot, by putting them in the cornors you create more first order reflections. You can also put small pieces of acustic open cell foam off the 45 of the speeakers to help kill that reflection a bit. ALso look at the room do you ahve a rug? Currtins? or is it all hard?

I would really recomend getting someone in there that knows this stuff to look at your set up or else you can just wind up chaseing your tail and never really know what the system can do.
