Enzo, sounds like you're making progress. Congratulations. I did read above a suggestion to add a carpet to the floor. Have you tried this? I have one and added a second pad underneath it. This reduced floor reflections resulting in a cleaner, more accurate sound. I suppose treating the ceiling would help, though it is not as easy and aesthetics come in, but these two additions may effect soundstage hight.
Is my room doomed? Pic

For a discription of room dimensions and equipment you can click my system's page.
While the system is pretty new, I'm having a hard time getting it to sound anywhere as good as the dealer/distributor using very similar equipment (outside the preamp). Is it my room?
The center image is good but the soundstage height/depth is not what I know these speakers are capable of. The depth of the layers in the soundstage is also shallow. I have no sidewalls, and the speakers are firing into floor to ceiling windows (but I do draw the curtains).
Any suggestions? Pull the speakers out more? Toe in more?
