Superb cheap speaker placement, finding the "sweet spot" tool.


On the new Sound Liaison sampler there are a number of tracks from their One Microphone recordings.

These extremely well recorded tracks are ideal for speaker placement or finding the ideal listening position.
These recordings makes you believe the band is in your listening room. Adjust your listening position or speaker placement simply by viewing the session photo and imagining the band in front of you.
I got the idea from this 5 star review of the recordings:
.....These guys and this recording just rocks. Pace, rhythm, tone and soundstage are just off the charts.
The precise placement of all four of the musicians perfectly matches the photos of the sessions.
The balance of all four instruments is darn near perfect. As you can no doubt tell, I am a huge fan of this recording.
It is one of the best in terms of recording quality I have ever heard. Of course, and as always,
your view of the actual music content may vary quite considerably from mine.
Nonetheless, I think we would all agree that this recording sounds sensational....

Yes, I agree the XLO CD is excellent.
In combination with the completely phase coherent recordings, mentioned in my first post, you have all the tools necessary for a great set up session.
..... new DXD sampler recording engineer Frans de Rond is proving once again that his knowledge of mic placement and use of equipment is in a class of his own.
He is able to create a sound stage, that projects an almost visual image of the musicians.
A sound stage which is intimate but also has depth and space.
The sound on the recordings presented here are like a three dimensional Van Gogh painting, where you can step in and take a look around.
