how far do you sit from your speakers?


I've found that if I pull my chair about two feet forward from the wall that the soundstage feels more three dimensional. Speakers are about eight feet apart and my earrs are about that far from the tweeters now. anyone have any thoughts on what's ideal. Speakers are Spendor S8es.

I sit about 1 tot 2 feet from the wall about 8 feet from my speakers. My Speakers are about 8 feet apart. This is the maximum I can reach in my room. My listening room is also my living room. The whole room is about 13 feet wide and about 22feet long. Not ideal but Dutch house tend to be (a lot) smaller then houses in the US. I have have furniture between my speakers. I hop to do something about that though.

My ideal would be speaker about 8 feet apart listening position about 10feet from the tweeters. But I all depends on the speaker room and most importantly the all mighty WAF.
