Speaker placement

What does Bob charge?

Maybe BOB can teach the OP.

Some folks learn BETTER with a hands on approach. I do.

Show me, then I know. 

Now ALL the stuff you should be reading will make sense because BOB will be nice enough to explain it and show you a few tricks to fine tune the system to your taste..

If Bob has a reasonable fee and YOU have the money to spend AND want to learn Bobs way... Why Not.. Then share if BOB is a good teacher, or LOL, Robbed your silly a$$ for hiring BOB fresh out of Local State Pin. He learned a trade INSIDE..:-)

Enjoy in any case.. Lot of help right here IF you really want to do it.. Your call..

Regards

That is exactly what I was originally thinking. Use his listening skills and knowledge to teach me. If my room was more “normal” if you will I would be more confident. I am going to try the advice I’ve received here first and go from there. Bob’s fee varies with the size of the speakers etc. His website is informative. He wanted $750 plus a small drive fee. One thing that is nice is if I don’t hear an improvement I only pay the drive fee. Seems very fair. 

You could buy a framing square, tape measure, and string and hear an improvement for a fraction of the drive fee. Seriously. The setup I described works so well one year at CES the Talon Audio guy spent a couple hours tearing his hair out trying to get the sound he wanted. What's wrong, I asked? It's just not imaging like I know it could. 

The room was one of these cockeyed convention center rooms with walls that move and wind up staggered, a real mess. I said well can we dig up a framing square, tape, and string? We did, and 15 minutes later he was smiling.  

It just ain't that hard. Once you understand what is going on.

I’m now looking forward to trying it myself with all the help I have received here. Thanks again everyone !
