How far do you sit from your speakers


How far from your speakers do you sit and how far apart are your speakers (measured center to center of the front baffle) looking for the distance to the actual speaker not the line between them.

Just curious asked this on another forum and it appears my triangle is much bigger then the average.

I'm 9.5' apart and 17' from my speakers

The OHMs are mostly omnidirectional so I can sit pretty much wherever I want and everything holds together quite well.

In my big room with the OHM F-5s, the range is typically from 2 feet in front of the left speaker and a tad to the outside to a good 10-12 feet back in a 25' or so deep room.

In my small room (12X12) with the "Super Walsh 2s"/100s3s, I am generally about 4-5 feet in front of the left speaker which is about 3-4 feet out from the wall. The right speaker is a foot or two out from teh right side wall and about 5-6 feet into the room which makes for a asymetrical placement that works extremely well with a deep and wide soundstage, kind of like sitting in the front 10 rows somewhere at the symphony.
