Speaker set up and IRREGULAR rooms.


For some odd reason a closet was built in my living room. It juts out from the right side wall ahead of my listening spot. It actually limits where my listening position can be. Future plans do include removing it but in the mean time I have a question about positioning of my floor standers. Because of the closet it effectively makes it so that if I were to draw an imaginary line from the face of my closet to the back wall I'm at 11.5 ft. room width. Past the closet and to the right of the speaker it opens into the dining room. What does anyone think about placing the right speaker outside the imaginary line effectively in the area leading to the dining room? it is still clearly fully visible though I'm sure I'm getting some of the output bouncing off the side wall of the closet. I ask because it allows me to get a lot more distance between mains. I have Dali Opticon 8s and placed as so they sound pretty fantastic.

It sounds like you’re going to have to start moving the speakers around a bit to find out where they sound best. Or take a sledgehammer and eliminate the problem now. ;)
