I think that's far too simple of a definition for "proper placement", particularly when there are many different types of speakers (some of which are designed to be placed tightly in corners to achieve bass performance through room reinforcement), different size rooms (if the room is 10ft wide, "5 feet from all walls" doesn't work), different room boundary interactions depending on the volume at which you play music, etc. Every speaker is different, and every room is different...and barring aesthetic and practical concerns, how speakers get placed in a room starts with some methodology and can be optimized for that situation. I don't see this as a tweak...I see it as proper setup... -- PhilNYC Sonic Spirits Inc. http://www.sonicspirits.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PhilNYC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=837 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33956 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
