Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Re: RM 40 Sweet Spot

The lateral or horizontal listening window is sufficiently wide for most applications, especially if the toe-in is set to cross about a foot (maybe 2) in front of your face. It's called a crossfire set-up.

Vertical is different. Regardless of how the speaker is set-up, the vertical window is narrow. Of course, the farther you sit from the speaker plane the taller the window is. I sit about 8-10 feet away, and I'd estimate that the vertical window is no more than two or three feet at most. Hence, when you stand up, the highs are gone - completely.

In my opinion, a small price to pay for the quality of the music when sitting down.
