In Reply to: I found the rule of thirds to work well for Maggies fwiw my two cents... posted by PhilJ on May 29, 2015 at 16:07:17:
My 3.7s never quite made it there, but I got very close (approximate Limage arrangement was the final maneuver) - about a foot shy in a greater than 30' long room. I'm not sure which impressed me more, the tonal balance or the imaging.Now, I have my hot-rodded MMGs in that room, but in the 'bedroom' half (which includes the half bath, but only recently was invaded by the bed). They face the back wall and are nearly two-thirds of the way into the room. That also lands them beyond the 15' mark, which is where the reflected sound will be delayed by 30ms and we'll cease hearing combing effects. I rather like sleeping with Maggie ;-).
