Toe-in or NOT toe-in ??

Chasis...You are correct. I mis-stated, confusing rule of thirds with a different term I had seen someone use to describe the equilateral triangle configuration.

My apologies too for mis-spelling your name. It's been one of those days!

Trust your ears! Try it both ways (having a helper shift the speakers while you listen with eyes closed). Really depends, IMHO, on the speaker and the room. My Spendor 1/2s in nearfield are pointed right at me. Downstairs, my SP100s sound best straight ahead and sound "off" with any toe-in whatsoever!

Hi Opus, all is well! There is also the Cardas way, using the golden triangle ratio. It's fairly easy to use masking tape on the floor and slide a speaker along the line to see how it sounds. It's an interesting experiment if nothing else.
My listening panel hates toe, even when their own manufacturer uses it. I know, each to their own.
I set my Harbeths up with a good spread and toed directly at me, where I can no longer see the inner sides. Perfect for my room and ears.

part of it depends on if you have a rear port then the angle the port faces can really change the bass. otherwise most of my speakers pointed just outside of the respective ears - the exception is my Audio Note speakers which have the tweeters aim about 3 feet in front of my ears...

the pink things, use em!

just kidding :^D

have fun
