Speaker Width?

Hello all,

Currently my speakers are 12' apart and each speaker is about 10' from my listening position. Picture here: https://imgur.com/a/etiV2q8

Would it make sense for me to move them closer together? (switching with my amp and subwoofer on each side). Curious on thoughts and how people typically space their speakers!

Mine are about six feet apart center to center, about two feet from rear wall, listening at about nine feet from speakers, cabinets tilted so that I cannot see either side of the cabinet at listening position. It works for me. Plus nobody else is here to not like how they are

Although I agree with most of the advice you're getting, it's really no wonder this hobby dying off (LOL / Kind of)

I also highly recommend the Jim Smith book, as others have above. It is one of the best values available in getting the best sound you can from your room and equipment. His book deals with your issues and puts them in order of significance for sound quality.

Really strongly recommend either:

1 - Ditch the cabinet
2 - Get cabinet top speakers, maybe even horn loaded like the small Hsu or Klipsch units.

Best,
