Making speakers “disappear”…..

Thanks guys, I will keep experimenting in the coming weeks. One thing I noticed when I got the speakers to disappear was the sound seemed to come from the amp etc straight in front of me….sounds crazy but I need to move that so there is nothing that distracts my perception.

Oh, one thing….because my room is only 8feet wide I have the speakers closer to the wall than I would like, or if I brought them in two feet each I’m only left with four feet between the speakers !

Anyway, I’ll keep playing around with the limitations I have.

The equilateral triangle should be considered a guide or a starting point. What works for some users in some rooms with some speakers may or may not work for you. The experimental process should be fun and not a chore. When you discover a placement you like, mark it with tape on the floor or document the dimensions and see if you can make any further improvements from small adjustments. If not, go back to your preferred positioning. The stereo image coming from your amp between the speakers is actually what you are striving for. If this bothers you, move the amp as you said or even better listen in the dark.

If possible, some treatment usually helps. At least first reflection areas on sidewalls 

Cheers iseland…..yes, I bought thick curtains for three walls, a pair per side so I can open to various degrees in the event of the curtains deadening the room too much. Still got work to do on room treatment/experimenting.
