Omega Speaker Set up questions


Hello all,

On my second alliteration of Omego Speakers, sold my first pair of Super Monitors because contrary to these forums, I found them, for lack of a better term, sort of thin, tinny and hollowed out especially in vocals.  Later discovered my amp had something to do with that so sold that and currently have a Dennis Had Inspire Fire Bottle KT88 SEP Amp and Dennis Had LP27a preamp.  Lots of Omega love with Dennis Had gear so purchased a pair of closed box Outlaw 1.5's.  Installed yesterday and to my chagrin, hearing that same nasty tone and this time I know it's not the amp.  I had Klipsch RP600M's prior with great success but wanted a larger speaker.  Room is small, 15'6" L x 11' W x 10' H.  Speakers on long wall approx 8' apart....front baffle approx 30" off back wall.  I have found that moving further into the room makes it worse, moving closer to back wall improves it some.  Augmented by two REL R305's crossed over at 60hz.  Looking for suggestions....I'm normally very good with set up but something is off and it may well just be I'm just not in tune with this brand.

Thanks in advance!

My Omega Super monitor 7's are are very full and balanced--nothing thin or tinny about them coupled to a Ray 6L6 SE amp. Quite the contrary.  Your problem lies elsewhere.

@ptrck887   Ah, may be placement then.  Mine are in a second system where they need to be within two feet of the front wall.
