How far away from your speakers are you?

To say my listening room is less than ideal, is an understatement.

However, we do the best we can!

Speakers are set up in a 11X18 room using the Fibonacci Progression method, as outlined on Cardas site.

I'm sitting approx 6' from my Cornwalls.

They are elevated by 2" (On street hockey balls)

Toed in and tilted back by 1 degree.

Might as well be wearing headphones I know, but it does sound fantastic :)

Cornwall's were never meant to be used as near field listening I suspect...

They have had extensive internal bracing done, some added poly and bass port mods and some damping of the horns which have been coated with spray foam insulation.

Far enough away from all of y'all that I can play whatever whenever as soft or as loud as I may care to at this time of night. *S*

Since I'm diy'ing speakers, I occasionally on purpose see if I can break them.

Large enough space that things may clip and go into thermal shutdown....
I'm usually wearing hearing protection when doing this because I'm not stupid....

(...and I heard that, too.....back atcha'...)

I don’t sit down to listen to music because I feel couch potatoes take more ambulance rides then anybody in the long run I place my speakers high enough to have the correct sonic level of the speakers
My speakers have horns and drivers in them to find the correct location I close my eyes listen carefully and position my body slowly where I am hearing the most out of the music Then I take a soundbath
That is my way of doing it and I know there’s many different ways to achieve this
Everyone  has their own idea
Whatever works for you after sifting through all of this is probably best for you Thank you for reading my posts and considering a new way

It's a good question, but it begs for another question.
Do you have near, mid or farfield speakers?
How large is your room.
I have nearfield speakers in a small room.
(Barfoot sound MM27)
What annoys me inspite of room tuning (acoustic material) is that i still would like to move my rear wall 2 meters further.
A close position would be a benefit talking side reflexions (floor, roof and side walls).
You want direct sound and not reflextions.
Anyway, this is all a can of worms....

Focal aria 936’s:   room: 19x42    2 10” diy subs. Set just high enough to add support without obvious bass boost/boom
speakers are 5’ from curtained front wall 7’ 7” apart and 9’ 5” from listening pos.
Which leaves just over 5’ from side walls.   Very slight toe inImaging is outstanding. With maybe just a touch too little center fill. 
Toe in more?  936’s by most recc’s  do best firing straight forward, but I’m not finding that in my room.   Time to play a bit with position but I’ll have to mark current carefully. Hate to loose what I’ve got and not get it back.
