There's another great discussion going on about the limage- setup, but since it surely does not work in every room, I would like to start another discussion about other methods for finding the "best" position for Maggies.

My own T-IVa's are not yet up & running, so I don't know if limage would work for me or not. But since my forthcoming listening room will be far away from a "box", I'm quite sure that some more traditional setups might be better.

So, what I would like to hear is your comments on how did you find the best sounding position for your panels (with NO limage setup)? Did you start with some measurements, or do you trust your ears only? If you measure something, what and how? Which kind of a music do you listen when doing setup, and how do you know when it's "there"? What are typical faults in sound, if Maggies are misplaced, etc. etc.

And of course, it would also be nice to hear what is your final setup; what is the distance between:
- speakers and side- and front walls
- left and right speaker
- speakers and listening position
- listening position and back wall

All comments are highly appreciated!
