Hi Jerry, yep it was a bit of a disappointment, but life can be like thatOriginally Posted by jandl100
Interesting comments, Stuart.
... And you must have been seriously disappointed!
You (or at least, I) wouldn't have expected a long thin room like that to work at all well when it comes to soundstage - but you heard just the opposite.:
Hmmm ... I have a long thin one (listening room that is) and I've only ever tried my omni-directional speakers firing across the narrow/width dimension ... Hmmm
I was honestly surprised in the way the room sounded, I've got a feeling there may have been some acoustic damping going on...I think I'm going to have to go back and have a chat with him about his room, it really was a pretty special sound! I initially thought it was just an attribute of the spaekers (Shahinian super elfs).
As it was a dedicated room, the speakers were in a lot of free space about 3-4ft from the rear wall and 2ft from side walls. The settee was also well away from the back wall. I could never do this at my house, as my listening room is also my living room.
regards, Stu
