How tall do you like your images?


Just wondering, when you listen, do you like your stereo image to be at ear level, above, below, or do you like planars thanks to having a steady image no matter if you are standing or sitting?

I prefer the center image height to be at tweeter level which is slightly above my ear level when seated. In terms of width, my room layout isn’t ideal but I have the width to appear contained within the boundaries of the room versus going ’beyond the room’.

 

Basically, the imaging and height I prefer to be believable within my particular room.

@erik_squires Out of those, I haven't done ceiling but I did treat the others mentioned. Thankfully I have vaulted ceilings which helps but my WAF of existing treatment is definitely near or at the limits!

This discussion has been very interesting in terms of provoking thought around what I feel, acoustic treatment wise, is the remaining weak link of my room.

 

My listening room is my living room, so it has double duty of TV and music. I would love to add diffusion between the speakers, but it would have to be removable which eliminates a solid number of wood options given the weight. Would anyone have recommendations of what could be used?
