What works best will be determined by the type of speakers that you are using and how you end up having to place them due to traffic patterns & furniture. If this is a dedicated audio room, have some fun, do some learning and experiment : ) Sean

Long v. short
I am trying to set up a new room, but cannot decide which wall sounds better for speaker placement. The room is 12.5 x 21 ft, and I've always used the short wall elsewhere by default. However, the long wall placement sounds different, but I have not yet decided if it is "better". I think I am hearing a wider stage, but it may be influenced by reflections immediately behind the sitting position, which must be against the wall due to the short width of the room. Do any of you have any generalized preferred set up for floor-standers, independent of speaker model and manufacturer?
