I can't figure out at all what the instructions actually mean.
"Have the speakers placed along the lengths of the room, about Ľ to 1/3 from the back wall, and Ľ the breadth roughly."
Which is the lengths of the room? Which wall is the back wall? Which direction are the speakers facing? What is L' and L?
" Then play some vocal music, the hilarious type, the more instruments the better.
Now walk slowly to and fro along the mid-line between the speakers, from one end of the room to the other and then back, may be several times to get the mind set (if the speakers are standing low, you may well have to crawl). Somewhere along the aisle, you would hear the sound getting louder and at the same time it rises above your head, filling the ceiling as if you've entered a Gothic church. Bingo, that is it, the focal point"
Is the "mid-line between the speakers" the line connecting the speakers, or the perpendicular bisecting the line connecting the speakers?
"Mark this focal point and drag your speakers over the lateral line crossing the spot"
What does that mean? Where do I move the speakers to? Do I change where they used to be?
I think I need a picture. Is it clear to everybody else but me?
