Placement of AMP and Turntable in-between speakers

After months of denial, I bit the bullet and moved my MA352/SACD85 and Project Classic turntable to the side wall of my music room instead of placement in-between the Dynaudio Contour 20s and subs.   I was encouraged by "Get Better Sound" to do so, but had already purchased shorter speaker wire lengths. 

Set up is visible in my profile at the newly added photos (before/after).  My conclusion was immediate; it does provide a better sound stage.  More depth, more realism.  I didn't think it would make that significant an impact, but for my situation it's one of the best room treatments to date.

While it is a bit dependent on the speakers… yeah, it can make a really big difference. After experimenting I realized the place to, make the break was between the preamp and amp… leaving the amp close to the speakers and getting the rest of the stuff out of the way. Biting the bullet and spending a lot of money on the preamp / amp interconnects.

 

FYI, there was not nearly as big a difference with my ribbon speakers.
