RE: Great !!




Stu,

Many thanks for this remarkable tweak and your help.

Found that the best configuration for the channel separators with my Vienna Acoustic Maestro Grands and room layout is at an angle of about 105 degrees 18 inches to the inside front of each speaker as depicted in the attached photograph.

I share your experience of the vertically expanded sound-stage (that happily also makes the widescreen sound behind more authentic) and the enhanced image definition that makes all sounds dense and even the smallest sounds stand out. What's even more important and takes me by surprise is the striking and highly desirable increase in the purity of sound; had always heard improvements of that nature in the past after removing a layer of digital corruption...

As you can see, made my own 12" x 48" channel separators with plywood base, each covered with cork and front-faced with a panel of acrylic P-99 non-glare plastic to reflect the sound waves to the listener. Lot of work but permanent fixtures deserve it.
