Phase differences do not have a noticable effect on the quality of the sound itself. They do affect the stereo image which can be blurred or cause effect known as 'two islands', you hear nothing but extreme left an right positions.
Sweat spot? Sp. placementt again
I get better sound standing up, rather than sitting, at the listening position. Anyone encountered this? Pls read on before you bash...
The listening position is two feet from the listener's back wall which is damped with wall carpeting.
We pooled resources with my partner (she's from down under: they hear things diffferently there, so she says) reaching an optimum positioning for our Gen Vs, following hints from Redkiwi's ("speaker placement") posts -- thanks everyone!
The room has an asymetrical listener's back wall, with a round fireplace on one corner and a 7ft opening at the other -- 12ft wall in between. The ceiling is 8ft high, room length ~25ft.
We tried listening closer to the speakers -- but, no cigar. Tried a higher chair too! -- ditto.
Any ideas?? Thanks.
