room setup


Hello all
 I'm about to build a system in a small room [11x13] with a window in the center of the short wall. My question is, should the window be in front or back of the listening area?

mc you never cease to amaze.
I’ve been reading these forums for years. Many moons ago you made the statement "everything matters" those 2 words should be at the forefront of every topic.


Followed by, and I mean literally the very next comment:
I don’t think it makes any difference.

Now I am lmao!

Seriously, the reason for the window joke is there’s more to a room than the system. (I know, hard to believe.) Even a dedicated room like mine has a door somewhere, and a shape, and that sets a traffic flow pattern, and that is but one of many practical use factors we cannot ignore. Just maybe the sound in my room would be better with the speakers on the long wall. But not much and that one thing would be so greatly outweighed by everything else I never even bothered to try and find out.

"Everything matters" indeed! Including things that have nothing to do with the sound.

btw, which avatar do you prefer? Madame LeModerateur? Or Einstein? I'm leaning Einstein. Though the other one is not without her rather obvious attractions.
