Is it Possible??

Is it possible for speakers to sound better when you hear them while sitting in a different room that the speakers are in or when you stand behind them?  If so why does this occur and what can I do to improve my listening experience while sitting in the same room as the audio gear.

Interesting, I know little about Frequency response so your insight is helpful.  Would another solution be to look for speakers that have a lower frequency response?   What would be the optimal frequency response I should be looking for in a speaker in order to achieve the type of rolled off I am looking for?  Thanks for your insight.

A pair Carrera 7BE Speakers made by Fritz Heiler.  I recently changed them out and tried my old pair of Carbon 7's also mad by Fritz.  I thought they were much smoother.  Could it be the fact that the Carrera's have beryllium tweeters?

Thank you all for your comments and observations.  As they say you have provided me with food for thought.  For those of you interested in the gear I am using it is as follows;
Amp. - Hegel H-160
TT - Rega RP8
Preamp. - Icon Audio PS1
Cart. - Hana ML
Dac - Merason Frerot with a Merason Pow1
Server - Innous Zenith MKII
CD - Primare CD-32
Cables - mostly Wywires and Morrow Audio
Speaker cables - MIT Matrix 28
and Speakers are  Fritz's Carbon 7's

I have toed the speakers out a little and have noticed some improvement.

Thxs for your suggestions, I purchased the Puritan PSM 156 a few months ago, I forgot to list it in my component listing.  Very pleased with it and yes it has made a difference.  Are you suggesting that I upgrade the existing power cord on the Puritan?
