Speaker position in room is important be aware that having the same distance from side to front wall might give problems in response. Bear in mind that your listening position affects amount of perceived bass. So changing both can be a fix for this on top of the required accoustic treatment. Make the room work for you not you against it... Another idea might be to change equipment layout i.e. different front wall (sometimes possible) might do the trick. Regards
Too much bass even in large room...?
I recieved the phone call, from friend of mine, and complaining of "...too much bass in his new room"(boomy and sloppy) The size is 14.5X24X15(catedral ceiling). His "gear" is Canton LR-1(?),(large fl.stander with 2X8"woofer) Plinius 250 mk iii, Muse Model II (pre) and Sony CD (?) $3000 one! The room is consider large. So i don't know why "bass" would act-up? Any idea? Thanks! (he moved from the appartment into the house)
