Dunlavy SC-IVa Set up help

I have been playing with various speaker placements for the last several months and just can't seem to get the speakers to sound right. The frequency response bouncing all over. When I get the midrange to sound good, the bass sounds weak. When the bass sounds good, the midrange is lacking. The room size is 12x21 with the speakers on the short wall. Seeting possition is about 17feet from the front wall. I have to use the short wall because the room is also used for HT. My pre amp is an aragon soundstage and my amp is a pass labs x350. CD Player is an Anthem CD-1

Anyone in North Jersey (Rockaway) care to give me a hand ? I will supply the beer and load the grill with dogs & burgers.

Thanks,
Mike

Dunlavy's like to be seperated by a fairly large margin. Keep this in mind, along w/Newbee's advice.

"Somehow, I don't think John Dunlavy cared much about cosmetic appeal. That's one reason Dunlavy is out of business."

Hate to jump into the fray here, but I know why John's out of business, and it had nothing to do with the cosmetic appeal of his speakers.

If Dunlavy's are not setup properly, they suffer like any speaker. They can yield stupendous bass- or suffer from an anemic low end- all based on their placement.
