Speaker position?
Posted by csuzor on August 7, 2005 at 05:29:24:
Christine, why is the B&W pictured so close to the wall and behind the cabinet? I have the 7xx series, very similar, and I know they sound better with a lot more room behind and to the sides. Also, try to avoid any objects between each speaker, the sound will merge better. B&W make every effort to avoid directivity, which means the sweet spot is large and the sound diffuses very widely, but the constraint is that front neighbouring objects are a problem. Wooden floors are also a big problem, make sure you isolate the speakers correctly, and try to tilt them back slightly to align the drivers.
Nice setup!
