Some people like Ohm speakers for this reason.
Listening Room
Hello to all,
I think this is a situation many audiophiles find themselves in: That being your listening room is NOT a dedicated room that your expensive audio system resides in. You do NOT have a chair that is perfectly positioned in between speakers to optimize your listening enjoyment. Why? The room simply cannot accommodate a chair in the center or, most likely, your wife and/or significant other will not allow you to place a chair where it's supposed to be when listening.
Having said that, you listen to music from everywhere in the room. How does one go about speaker placement? How do you increase the sound stage? Are some speaker brands better than others when you do not have a dedicated listening room? Thanks for your input.

You want to minimize toe in and look for speakers with wide sweet spots. Also consider satellite/sub configurations or wall mounted speakers as well. Revel is a reasonably affordable brand that fits this description. Some of the mid-small size JBL monitors may also be good candidates here, especially the models with the butt-cheek horns. |
WHAT??? "wife and/or significant other will not allow you" WTH? I'm always amazed when I see men say things like this. We have very comfortable DR chairs which I move in place after puling my recliner back a little. Then when I/we finish listening session, I move it back where it belongs. |
@jgjg123 is a disturbingly familiar sounding screen name. Could it be? Nooo . . . tell me it isn't. . . Anyway, on the outside chance that this is a serious question, I'd say +1 to @erik_squires for recommending a pair of forgiving speakers.
