Do you have any diffusion between them?
Magnepan Sweet Spot
For the last year, I have been listening to my set of Magnepan Tympani IVs. They are great at creating a wall of sound, and picked up substantial bass and detail when I acquired a Parasound A21. However, I have failed to create the sweet spot I have experienced with other maggies I have owned. Between this failure and the size of the Tympanis, I am considering selling them and looking at other Magnepan models to achieve the sweet spot. I have always loved the Magnepan clarity and detail, and do not need thumping bass.
The current Tympani arrangement has them at one end of a 22x12 room (12' wall behind them). If I change them out, I think I will rotate the setup, so that the listening chair will be at one end of the 12' wall and the speakers 3' - 5' away from the other wall.
Given this setup, which of the Magnepan line should I consider to achieve that sweet spot?? I have MMGs but would probably get the LRS if I chose that size speaker.
Heresy though it may be, if I turned away from the Maggies, what speakers would achieve similar results for about $2500 used?
