Lacking Soundstage - Vandersteen 2C


Hello,

I have been trying different placements with Vandersteen 2C speakers, but soundstage and depth have been elusive. The speakers are placed 2ft from the back wall and 2 ft from the side walls. One thing though, only the right speaker hads side wall next to it, the left one has a pillar (next to the entrance). The speakers are about 4 ft apart and about 8 ft from the listening position. The speakers are (now) toe'd in a bit, still cluttered soundstage.

Is there something wrong with the speaker placement?

4'? Unless your using something like the new Tact Ambiphonics thingamajig, you probably don't have enough room for these speakers or you need to reconsider the placement.
My guess is that your room is too small for these minimum baffle wide dispersion speakers that provide deep though not exceptionally tight bass that need room for driver intergration..
