Well I tried just about every combination - poles forward, poles backwards, tweeters in, tweeters out, tweeters wired backwards, tweeters wired normally - no luck on broadening the sound stage. Some interesting things - I first wired the tweeters out of phase, and didn't much notice the difference. I put it back, and thought "wow, that's better." did it a couple of times to confirm - I really only notice the difference going one way. Only clear loser was tweeters in. Poles facing the room won out slightly over facing the front wall (sounds louder, so I figure less clipping on the amp since I don't have to turn it up as much, and the sound is more at ear level, vs higher for the poles normal config).
What do you all think - other than some of the peculiarities about JBen's room configuration, what can I do to create the environment for that surround-sound effect?
