Description

What I don't seem to have is a lot of soundstage depth. Any ideas?

All 2ch listening done with the analog pass thru. Speakers far apart and in front of the tv. Speakers moved out into the room.

Thanks

Marty

Thanks for the thoughts.

On the first reflections I have a plush couch/love seat placed. Not sure how much this really helps. The floor is carpeted. Behind the TV smack in the middle is a brick fireplace.

I've always said a TV smack in the middle can't help anything. Projector would be the only solution for that, spendy...

Rives, I was going to list everything wrong with the room, but to same time, the only thing not wrong is I don't have a bay window. :) Being that I'm renting, I assume the dedicated lines was pushing things, not really sure how much more I can get away with.

Thanks for the input, I have measured the overall room response via your test cd. It should look like a ekg, right? Guess I should figure out how to straighten that graph out.

Side question: I assume you have gone into a setup with the response all over the graph. How much of a difference did it sound when you did your thing.

Thanks
Marty
