I would like to remind you that there is no EASY answer to this question and Much of any answer must include the design of the speaker. Your speakers design is a Major factor in what treatment is needed in your room. I was just discussing with a friend last evening how my own favorite design has the woofers up off of the floor quite a distance so that the emissions from the bottom of the speaker are not absorbed or reflected by the Floor/carpet. This would be opposed to manufacturers that put the woofer as close to the floor as possible for their own reasons. I am not discussing the validity of where speaker components as place but how it effects the reflective nature of the resultant sound.
Making speakers “disappear”…..
So I’m just setting up my new system and dial it in-
Benchmark AHB2
Benxhmark DAC 3
Totem1 speakers
all trial and error here but…..when you guys are dialing in speaker placement do you move them around, closer and further away until the sound doesn’t actually seem that it’s coming from the speakers? So far I’ve found that sitting in a “triangle” - equal distance from the listening position that the speakers are placed apart and so far so good - do you guys do this or have any tips for me on this?
