Von Schweikert VR4 jr in small room, any success?

Thanks for all of the responses. All good advise. I'm no longer in the 12' x 12' room. The new room is kind of hard to describe. It's not square just small which should give me better results as Jay pointed out. Thanks Alan, the diagonal set up usually does work best in a small room. I was able to get it set up, but I had a girlfriend at the time - so I had to change it back to a regular setup. Now I don't have the girlfriend so I am more flexible lol

The biggest issue is in the small square room was the brightness which I was able to cure with sound treatment.

Rather than hash out what might work in my new room (which has a shape that is hard to describe - it is an open room to other rooms) = I guess I was just looking for motivation to try it. I've been using my Grado RS-1/RA-1 headphones wondering whether I should set the speakers up or wait until I move in 5 months from now.

Thanks for the motivation.

Also make sure that you don't have the rear tweeter cranket up too high.

My VR-4Jr are in the 152" x 280" room.

The rear of the cabinets are parallel with a "toe" to the 152" wall and placed about 30 inches from three walls.

I do not look at the adjustment value of the ambient tweeter, I simply adjust it to taste. Like I adjust the volume control to taste like the amount of cream I add to my coffee for taste...

Typically left and right channel recording levels are not even, so, reffering to a "number" or setting "Q" is not relative to actual SPL.

I suggest to use your ears not a number when listening.
That's is presicely the why many high-end pre-amp manufacturers do not print numbers on the volume control.

Do you have amount of gas into injection levels indicators on your Ducatti? OK. moving on...

The VR-4jr's are very musical, forgiving and revealing at the same time.

If you have speakers for the explicit point of listening to music, a TIVOLI table top will do just fine.

VR4JR. really don't have a "sound" they are simply a natural messenger for quality recordings.

Ryko recordings do not so good with VR-4JR, as result you should love the music on Ryko.

But Ryko recordings are known for music content more so than recording quality. Thus proving my point,the VR-4JRs., are also revealing.

I love them.
