RE: Trying Limage Speaker Placement

Happy to see you found a solution.

If you have not yet fine tuned the gap to the wall and the distance to the front wall then you should still do so (without the EQ engaged - and then fix the optimal result with the EQ).

The tonal balance of the 3A is warmer and more bass heavy than the later models so that wall loading can make the midrange sound anemic relative to the deep bass. EQ is a solution if it is sufficiently high quality to be transparent. Your piece obviously works. You can try to get a picture of what the tonal balance is with your SPL meter and a test CD to do a FR sweep. No setup required, no software to learn. Look up the generic calibration curve to see where your results are "legit" as the response falls off at the top and bottom octaves.

The results you got are appropriate to the Limage setup and are to be expected, your EQ fixes the nits the rest of us have to live with if we don't multiamp. It provides a bigger and more resolved soundstage, wider sweet spot, warmer tonal balance with real deep bass, and stronger dynamics.
