Yes, most loudspeakers today need to be pulled out from the wall. 3 feet is a good starting place. A 12X12 room is big enough to get a great sound stage but you'll have to work to get the best set-up.
room size question.
( wasnt sure what category to put this in ,so figured this one would get more views)
in watching some you tube videos, one from Jays audio lab, and another one from Paul ( ps audio ), they both mention how the speakers should be set up in the room and it seems they bring them out into the room quite a bit. they say that when this happens, you have the soundstage and jay was mentioning that there are layers that one gets to hear when listening.
my question i guess is that can this same thing happen in a smaller room, say 12x12 or is one just limited to say center imaging due to room size ?
room is treated
this is the ps audio video
