BEST SPEAKER TO MATCH..

Hi Rox,
I hope you are after best possible sound, not just some good looking boxes.
90% of sound is made by your room and the speakers!!!
Please describe your room shape and size, the position of your furniture. I might be able to help.

My room is about 15 ft by 25 ft and about 10ft high and I have a sofa and love seat in which it accomodate almost third of my listening area and my floor is carpeted, I have my speaker placed about a foot away from the wall and I have it toe out about 8 inches on the side.
Your advise will be rewarded by good smile and a wink of my hazel eyes...how about that!!!!!!(my boyfriend is right here beside me breathing like a dragon..he..he..he...he)

Rox, check out the Cardas site http://www.cardas.com/insights/roomsetup.html for speaker positioning, follow the suggested formula and see how your set up sounds. I'd suggest trying this before you change any gear. Winks are cool, Jeff

Hello Jeffloistarca and all you audiogon member,

I did go to the website(www.cardas.com) and try those speaker placement ,distance of calculation and measurement that the site recommend, and it does work so good and it seems like it is new a system,but the biggest problem is I have to re-arranged my listening room due to the movement of the furniture and so far I am happy and my boyfriend is also happy,

Thanks

I owe you one.......

roxbury, i'd hazard a guess that yer speakers are now a bit further out from the wall than 1'? ;~) unless yer present speakers are specifically optimized by the mfr for near-wall placement, most are significantly improved by being moved out into a room. i was gettin' ready to suggest a couple brands that do well against-the wall, but ya seem ok, now! :>)
