Question How well positioned are your loudspeakers?

[Jasonovich]

I make them believe they were the ones who left me and it worked out , and even this summer all together at the beach .
Also age helps not kids anymore and being there when needed , this refering to old relations in the past became friendship with the years, never left in bad terms.

Even if they done you wrong, you forgive. If you let it eat you up, you'll never be able to reconcile the past. Today things are amicable with my ex and my daughter and her kids bring light into my life. And my second wife, coming up to 20 years of marriage (touch wood!), I would have not met her had I not been divorced. It's weird how life seems to work out in the end

I am very lucky, (although a slightly bigger room in all dimensions wouldn't go amiss!) mine are set out in an equilateral triangle with little in or around the speakers. more importantly my nearest neighboring property is more than 15m away. The latter was the best HiFi upgrade i have ever experienced!

Like s*** but I place myself accordingly so not the biggest issue.

yes it´s the truth, and we learn as we live as priorities change with age, one might not be capable to live anymore with our companion but children will always be first , we have to keep a good relation with their mother and always, there were good times , one shouldn´t keep hanging in the worst part of the relation as it is only natural ,no relation is perfect all the time ,my last relation will be forever , when i was 50 i was in a very dark place ,that´s when i met my companion for life, sometimes we have the luck of knowing such a person and the cherry on top ,she loves music as i do and the taste it´s almost the same, Music can heal deep wounds, to me is the same as an adiction but a good one, has i remenber when 11 i started to hear music in a daily basis, and the Beatles were the first band i love to hear ,remenber still playing both red and blue doble Lp´s when my father was working as he couldn´t be home before 4.30 in the afternoon ,he wouldn´t let me touch is stereo so i did it anyway and not too loud as some neighboor could coment with him hearing loud music at work hours.

With less than desirable room dimensions of just over 3m x 3m, I’ve finally settled on no ‘toe in’ and approx 25cm from front wall with 40cm from side wall.

Whether my stand mount Q Acoustics 3030i’s can be judged well positioned I will never know.
However having recently moved them further back to the wall and now with negative toe in, the bass does seem a lot tighter(?) and less boomy.

They are on stands and you have experimented with position, so chances are they are pretty well positioned.

The original post was inspired by seeing so many speakers positioned 100% for the convenience of the other furniture and not for sound. The comments suggest most people do the best they can within their limitations.

I agree I was stretching it a bit with my post, but in terms of limitations my small ‘square’ is generally not ideal for hi fi… unless thinking has changed recently.

However looking at some of these set ups I’m well aware I’ve nothing to complain about.

Perhaps I need to search for a square room self help group

Not too bad. Front ported stand mounts about 2m apart.
Blu-tacked to solid toughened glass stands filled with stone chips. Toe-in to just beyond the normal listening position and with a slight upward angle of about 3 degrees.
