General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Great imaging speakers

I think speaker placement and the size and shape of the room make the most difference in imaging and soundstage. The speakers have to be out from walls and a vaulted ceiling also helps tremendously. Unfortunately, when you place the speakers out into a room away from walls, bass performance suffers. Therefore, I prefer a satellite/subwoofer speaker system for best imaging along with full-range bass performance. Furthermore, I like my subwoofer against a wall behind my listening position so that it is no farther away from my head than the satellite speakers in front. The last three houses I've owned contained listening rooms especially selected for good imaging and soundstage, and it paid dividends. I am completely satisfied with my present system's imaging performance with it arranged diagonally in the room.
