Do whatever sounds best to YOUR ears, mostly based on the distance between your speakers and how far back you are listening to them. My speakers are very far apart, but the sofa isn’t as far back as it needs to be. So, I toed them in 1” and am extremely happy with the sq. The soundstage got a little more coherent while still exhibiting a huge sound stage front to back and side to side and bass response increased.
Is toeing speakers a bad idea?
I was toeing in my speakers and that seemed like a good thing to do. But then I decided to de-toe the speakers. I was hoping that the speakers dispersed things well enough and maybe they don't need to be focused so much to create a so-called sweet spot.
I found the imaging in the room was a lot better and sound improved. The room is a rectangular room and the speakers are placed at one end of the room about 3 feet from the wall. Room sizes 17 x 23 with a 7 ceiling. Maybe someone can share some rationale for this. I feel the sound waves may spread out better and not be so disturbed when they collide in a so called sweet spot near my skull.
