How far and wide? NSMT speaker placement


Greetings, when I heard the NSMT's at Teajay's place they were like 15 feet or more from the front wall. He played Copeland's Fanfare for the Common man and holy smokes the drums were all the way behind the speaker to the wall which as mentioned was 15 feet or more (lovely post and beam house).  I have been playing with my speakers in my small place and when I got them to 34inches out into the room the depth changed for the good!  It was astounding.  I am going to move so I can have a larger room as this room is limiting my speaker placement ability. 

How far and wide have you found to work in your room?  Love to hear other's experience.

They have powered woofers, right?, so they don't need near-wall reinforcement.

Yes they have powered subs but when I moved them 3 feet from the wall depth appeared like it never had. So yes don't need wall reinforcement and can also turn up or down the bass. Focused on the full range driver sound.

Love this stuff!

Go to the Cardas website they have a very good setup that’s been very good 

I have found straight ahead or slight toe is good but I have my Dynaudios toed almost like a x intersection the apex in the middle and sounds great .

the Omni MBL speakers I want just have to be the same distance front and side wall and are incredible speakers , each speaker has its open preference for each room.
