been aware of and read the Cardas method years ago. Finally decided to
give it a try. Glad I did. I have a better appreciation for my
speakers. The speakers are sealed cabinets, so I don't know what that adds to the equation. There
probably is a little more to be squeezed out, with minor adjustment,
but I'm satisfied for now. I haven't gone the last mile with subtle
tweaking yet.
twoch- pleasantly surprised there's no shortage of low end with the speakers based on the calculator. Speakers are 6' apart(ctr-ctr) and i'm just outside "the triangle" Low end is amazingly strong without turning the subs on. With the subs on, its like "icing in the cake."

WOW- haven't tried this in many years, and certainly not with my current speakers. Using the above setup calculator, and my 12 ft, 4" wide room, my speakers would be 3.4 ft from sidewall. That would mean ONLY 5+ ft apart. Certainly closer together, but I'm gonna give it a go.
