Oh also , as touched on above about side wall reflections. I rotate a SS amp on the side wall configuration and it really expands the soundstage and of course the volume. At this point the side wall and ceiling reflections appear. Tube amp no problem, SS amp big problem. So the comments above from a couple members are very relevant and being familiar with their shares are meant to enlighten and not offend. I had that to experience that when I rotated in the SS amp. Hilde in particular is very well practiced at room treatment and very helpful to me for getting direction. Hope I’m not overstepping with my thoughts , as we’re here for a good time.

Room Acoustics and Speaker Placement
Hey guys,
I’m moving to a new condo next month. It’s going to be a living room setup and I have two options:
1) speakers will be positioned such that it will only have 1 side wall. The other side will be open (dining area).
2) speakers will have both side walls (not equidistant) but no rear wall (my back will be towards the dining area).
I know that neither setup is ideal but if you were to pick one, which one would it be and why?
let me know if you need more info. Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

@hilde45 you didn't direct at anyone, it just took me some time to digest your relevant and expert quote and I felt stupid :) I directed it at me... |
