One speaker observation from the New York Hifi show.

I was just at the New York Hifi show, and perhaps because of the size of the rooms, all speakers were toed in, and most were toed in severely. The result was very little effective imaging.  Most sound appeared to come from one central spot between the speakers.  I realize hotel rooms are not ideal, but even in the larger rooms, noticible toe ins were prevalent  I don’t believe this positioning shows systems off to their best advantage.  To me, speakers pointing straight ahead produces the best imaging.

How does one compensate for the seating position being slightly closer to the left speaker from the ideal equilateral triangle. That is an amp without balance controls? I have been trying to figure this one for a few days now.

The reason for my predicament is that I have a small system in my new office with 7 computer monitors. Only 2 of these really effect the sound coming from the speakers. Even those 2 are off to the side. My seating position is sideways closer to the left speaker.

If this is off topic I will create a new thread.
