Speaker Positioning


I have a very small listening room. My Mirage bi polar M5's are about 7 feet apart and my head is about 7 feet from them when I'm in my listening chair. Should I toe them in and point towards the chair or point them straight ahead?

Shadorne says: """In essence a biploar is like having a virtual second set of speakers placed behind your rear wall at the same distance as your speakers are from the rear wall => you actually hear four speakers ...really I am serious!! Therefore toe in or out will do very different things compared to a conventional speaker.""" Yes, indeed, I have bi-polar speakers too (Superslim 1800se, from www.ambiencespeakers.com.au) I love that Ribbon Sound but at the same time the back firing wave has to be neutralized. I am getting a few GIK 4" thick Acoustic Panels. I think prety much all bi-polars must deal with the same problem either taking them away from the back walls (as far as possible) or absorbing those waves with some kind of Room Acoustic Treatment.
