Speaker set up for more than 1 person


I have my system set up perfectly for a single person sweet spot. Near field about 9 feet from my speakers. But if I move even slightly off center the soundstage moves and one of the speakers dominates. If I have a couple friends over how can I arrange my speakers so we can all get a good soundstage with centered imaging? Move my speakers closer together?

My Sweet Spot is about  + - 5 in. on X axis and 3 ft. Y axis. Speakers are Maggie 1.7i s so Y axis SS is much greater. Wife enjoys the sweet spot too, but is usually content sitting to the side out of the range.

For her to best enjoy her favorite songs, my solution is for her to sit in LP and I sit in LP on floor with her legs on my shoulders. What can I say, it works for us. Of course this position wouldnt be best with friends, lol.

 

Had family over last night. Let son sit in sweet spot for a couple songs and he was good with that. Im my case when company is at house there is alot of conversation. Not really critical listening time. 

Grandkids came in, dance music put on and all had a good time.
