Hey Grannyring, this is Booboo's den saying sorry for the late response. I have the Sound lab M1s and love them!My room is very simular to yours in layout. It is 24 x 17 feet in dimensions and 7.5 feet tall. The speakers are on the long wall. They are about 5 feet from the back wall and 5 feet from the sides. You can see pictures on the virtual systems section on the all out asault page. My handle is BooBoo's den.The toe is about 25 degrees.From the center of the panel to my ears is about 7 feet.This is a nearfield setup but it is NOT in your face because this is a nice thing about the Sound Labs, never in your face.Diffusors will make them sound very open and make use of the rear energy without compeeting with the center image.The M1's are the 90 degree faced panels. I hope this gives you some new options!
Soundlab owners - room placement question
Next week I am getting some newly updated M3's from Soundlab. This is the first time I have tried an ESL and I am looking for some advice.
Where should I start for room placement? I understand it will take some time to move them around from this starting point for best results, but love to hear what other Soundlab owners are doing.
My room;
18.5 feet wide
24 feet long
8 foot ceilings
Carpet over concrete floor
No window to deal with
My room so anything goes!
Not open to any other room
300 watt SS amps combined with tube preamp
Listening position is flexible - again my room!
No sub right now - that could change if needed
Appreciate your thoughts.
