Hi Timrhu,

Thanks for the post. Honestly, I've just never felt the need for a sub. The bass is full and clear. I think I've made some progress on the speaker placement, though I still haven't regained the earlier magic. I'm moving in two weeks, though, so I'm not going to put more effort into this room. Let's hope for the best in the new house!

Hi,

Tried some absorption on the glass wall. No change to speak of. I tried moving the speakers out a bit. Imaging became fuzzy, and the tonality was REALLY hollow. What gives? The sad thing is, I haven't been able to find the sweet spot again. Imaging is all over the place, detail has dropped of severely, and the music just isn't engaging anymore. I can't believe there can be this kind of a change based on an inch or two of movement. This is after, with the introduction of my burned in iMod, the system was sounding STUNNING. I want my sweetspot back!

Hi Cytocycle,

Thanks for the suggestions. One huge problem that I failed to mention is that there is no side wall on the right hand side of the system at all. This probably wacks out the whole system.

Stands are sand-filled and blutacked.

Also, I don't think the housemates would appreciate acoustic material on that glass wall :/ Worth a try though, just to see how it changes things...

Thanks, guys. I'm worried that if I move the speakers away from the walls, bass will suffer. And they're already at least 2 ft away. But the bookshelves and records may necessitate moving them even closer towards me. I'll try this and let you know what happens.

Best,
Oliver
