| B&W dm 620 I have a pair that I use when I listen through a pair of 70-watt mono tubes. I like 'em a lot. Mine are set up just off the floor (4 or 5 inches), toed in slightly and tilted up a few degrees. Depending on my mood, I'm not as concerned with accura... | |
| speaker recommendations for a 12 x 12 room? Oops, I meant "my narrow and deep" room. | |
| speaker recommendations for a 12 x 12 room? Totem might be a good option for your room. I have a pair of Model 1s in my 11-wide room and, with some room treatment, have wonderful sound and deep, deep imaging. I have mine mated with a Totem sub and a Creek amp.I've dedided that a monitor-typ... | |
| Best speakers ever 4 small room? I've just added a pair of Quad 22Ls in my 11 by 21 by 10 foot room and I'm very happy. I put them in place of a Totem Model 1 / Totem Storm combination.After treating the room with Echobusters the soundstage is very deep and the bass tamed quite w... | |
| A series of underperforming setups...Solution? Having just moved in to a similar-sized room (last week in fact), I've found that one of the advantages of a smaller room is being able to get great sound through smaller electronics and speakers. I seriously considered VR4jr's for my new room unt... | |

| A Very Narrow Listening Room Again, thanks to everyone for their help. I have many things to think about. Hopefully I won't go into "audio paralysis".Would it be of help (or interest to anyone) to give regular updates as my project progresses (it should begin late next week),... | |
| A Very Narrow Listening Room I'll be looking into the Triads, Rhljazz. Thanks.It makes sense to shy away from speakers with a wide pattern. My listening position will be more like 6 to 8 feet from the back wall (the one behind the chair). How much, if any, adjustment will I h... | |
| A Very Narrow Listening Room Got it.The toe-in method sounded great with the Totems in my old room. I believe I can make this puppy work. Thanks! | |
| A Very Narrow Listening Room Well, there you go. I'm liking that idea. In your opinion, would something like the VR4-jr's work with that arrangement? And I'm headed to the Rives site today. Thanks for your time and tip. | |
| A Very Narrow Listening Room Brilliant. Thanks to everyone for your help.I've actually plotted my speaker placement with help from the Cardis site. It's looking like 2.5 ft. from the side walls and 4.25 from the back (approx.). My listening chair for critical listening will b... |
