pS to op put dynamat on the horn body inside cabinet
LaScala speakers
I know there are some members here who own LaScala or have experience with them. I have LaScala AL5 speakers and absolutely love them for their sound and looks. I think i have them dialed in properly but I was recently told the horns should cross roughly 1–2 feet in front of your head for a wider stage, deeper layering and reduced horn glare. My room is 14.5' wide x 20' long x 9.5' high. The front of the spkrs are 4' from the front wall and I'm sitting 13' away from them. They are 9' apart Center to Center.

+1. Also interested in the isoacoustic idea. Where did you place them? I have the AL5 also. I don’t find the midrange glaring at all. I have the middle of the speaker aimed at each respective ear. Each speaker is about 2 feet from the wall behind them. They are closer to the sidewalls than I’d like, but at two feet wide each I run out of room. I sit about 8 feet away from them as well. Probably should be further away but they are sort-of-shoehorned into my room. Havent found a better speaker for my musical tastes! |
@kingdeezie if you are ever tempted, DO NOT replace the factory metal strips with expensive terminal jumpers - waste of money and time! I thought those beautiful Furutech JumperFlux-S jumpers would improve SQ but instead they masked HF resolution and introduced MF saturation. After 400 hours I reverted back to the cheap factory strips and couldn't be happier. That said the terminals themselves are rather cheap and need an upgrade. Furutech makes some incredible terminals. But after my experience with the jumpers I'm hesitant which is unfair because Furutech makes great products in general like my custom Furutech power chord for my Innuos Pulsar Streamer which has made a huge difference. |
