Most of the placement advice in this thread is accurate. What I found out with my 2.5s was that I had to keep them fairly close together and just toed in a hare. Actually I always thought the sweet spot was pretty narrow, and I was always a little disappointed in the imaging. I moved on to Vandersteens, and am much happier. They were great in their day though. Fortunately my electric bill was included in my rent. Good luck.
Infinity RS 2.5 speaker placement
Hello all,
I've been trying to find the perfect spot for these old behemoths. I have tried the Cardas website, but the formula doesn't seem to work perfectly for these, maybe because they are a mix of cone woofers and the mylar? mids and tweets. He suggest toe in for all speakers while the infinity set up manual says to keep them parallel. Room is approximately 11'x20'x8' rectangle. Big window in front that has been covered and also some crochet blankets on the walls to try and soften things up a bit. I'm looking for the best imaging and soundstage I can get out of these. Any help is greatly appreciated. Btw, it's not bad by any means, just trying to find the best way to set up these speakers.
