RE: I am looking for guidance in setting up my Tympanis

Posted by andyr on February 24, 2017 at 23:20:05:
OK, here's my take (last year I helped a mate set up his refurbished T-1Ds).
What model are your Tymps?
What is the performance of your Threshold Stasis 2 into 4 ohms? Over 350w?
B is nearly 3' - that is great. Given the hanging guitars etc, I would suggest you keep that distance but I recommend putting your tweeter panels on the outside. (Maybe you already have this ... I can't make out which are the tweeter panels.)
A at 42" is great - can you get it to 60"?
Put the bass panels flat (or almost flat) to the front wall and just angle the (outside) tweeter panels in. Have them pointing at your knees.
C is not that important - better to position your listening chair so that your ears are 1/3rd into the room. My own listening position (which delivers a wonderful sound stage) is an equilateral triangle from the centre of the 2 tweeters. But, unfortunately I cannot be 1/3rd into the room! :-((
Re. 'vertical' - you will only get an approximation with those pathetic stock 'T' feet ... to get really vertical, you need some Mye stands.
Here's a pic of my setup; my Maggies are basically T-IVas with only 1 bass panel each side:
