positioning of a horn speaker


I have a pair of Tyler Acoustics PD 15 speakers that I am having trouble positioning. They have a 15 inch woofer and a flare type horn.I am having trouble with their imaging poor center fill with the image coming from both
R&L speakers. Are there any suggestions on positioning? I have never had a
pair of horn speakers.

I agree with Neville. Move them closer together. This same issue plagued me until I moved my horns a little closer together than the distance to my listening position. For instance, I sit about 11' from the mouth of both horns and they are now about 8' apart from each other. I believe this is due to the more direct radiation of horns.

The toe-in may work for you. It didn't for me. Probably some room interaction here. I find mine sound best when aimed just outside of my position, over each shoulder but not crossed. I'm not one to make a big deal of imaging so I happened upon this setup through experiments to remove other artifacts I was hearing at the time.
Ain't that always the thing?!? First, make sure it is plugged in correctly. :-) If I had a nickel for every time I have done something like this. . .

Glad you found it! Enjoy.
