Is My Room Large Enough?

i mentioned this as a possibility in a thread on the cable topic (?!?) called *excessive bass*. (?!?) any set-up that places the speakers asymmetrically in a room can be beneficial, especially for small rooms. it doesn't have to be completely diagonal - for example, keeping the listening-triangle-ratio the same, try moving one speaker closer to the back wall, or have one speaker closer to its nearest side-wall than the other, etc. this *will* help break-up standing-waves.

i have my speakers set-up this way, w/the right speaker closer to the right wall than the left speaker is, to the left wall, & my short wall is 25' long...

ps - ewe can go easy, no need to "screw things up" - yust try moving only one speaker, say, ~1' forward, then move the speakers' toe & the listening spot accordingly - should only take a few minutes...

yer right-on in the audio world, but ya lose me when ya say: "...drive an Acura Integra Type-R. what a machine!!..." try an '81-'86 warmed-over alfa gtv6 - 220hp, rwd, handling acuras only dream about, music from that italian powerplant making a car-stereo unnecessary... now *that's* a mmachine! oh yeah, 1/3 to 1/4 the cost, too! ;~)

ps - if ya *gotta* drop the big money on a car, a pantera, at about the same price as an integra, ain't half-bad... :>)
