In Reply to: RE: A quote about (against) placement of speakers... posted by wangmr on November 30, 2014 at 04:20:09
"If something does not sound right, you would have no idea if it were in the right place."Your original quote presumes that if a speaker does not sound right, experimenting with placement would never make it sound right. A presumption that I don't agree with.

My assumption was that most of us know where the best positions in our rooms are (I'm talking specifically about speakers). I've gone thorough several pairs of speakers over the last fifteen years and it has always turned out that new speakers sound best within a few inches of where the last speakers were. Bass quality and soundstaging are the two major criteria for me when it comes to placement decisions.Unless the room is a new one, or unless we've made a radical change in speaker type, I think that most of us know where the best positions are. Not that there is never any fine-tuning to be done, position-wise, but I generally know my way around the ballpark.
