Tweaking Your Speaker Placement

"Depending on the speakers an 1/8” move in the right way can have a significant impact."

What I am curious about is how one can verifiably move a speaker exactly 1/8th of an inch? My speakers on stands weigh about 60 pounds each and being bookshelf speakers, they are a little top heavy. They are also on IsoAcoustic Gaia's, which don't really slide too well.

How do you do it?

I am certainly no expert. Based on your follow up comments, I assume, you must be attempting to tweak the speaker’s position. In other words, you have found the sweet spot. You are hearing a difference in sound that you have never heard before and like what you’re hearing. If not, I would only use a 1/8 inch adjustment on the tilt not changing the distance from the wall, toe in etc in the beginning. Hope you are making progress.

As you know, this is only one process. There are a number of processes available. Some of them are fairly simple and others are much more time consuming. Personally, I would try more than one over an extended period of time. I have not read the book.
