Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Room experiments.

The speakers are designed to be coherent over their working frequency range, so room anomalies will upset this more so than they will the presentation of incoherent speakers.

You can do some simple experiments with spare blankets and blue masking tape to see if prominent corners or flat surfaces in your listening area cause the sensitivity to placement and program that you report. Keep in mind that outward wall corners act as virtual line sources, and flat areas act as beaming panels. Glass panes, in windows or cabinets, are especially bad reflectors as they add their own acoustic signatures.

I'm assuming your electronics are properly supported and do not respond to bass from the speakers.
