HOW TO POSITION 2 PAIRS OF SPEAKER FOR ALTERNATE LISTENING

HOW TO POSITION 2 PAIRS OF SPEAKER FOR ALTERNATE LISTENING

Is there a way we can position 2 pairs of speakers next to, or close to each other for alternate listening (without having to move anything over and over) but not compensate the sound qualities / acoustic benefits too much?

Did you try reversing positions?
Do all the permutations, if possible.

According to Jim smith, you never want more than 1 pair of speakers in a room. The driven pair will start to move the cones of the standby pair

@rbstehno  +1  The effect will be a slight "smearing" of the sound of the speakers that are playing.

@rbstehno @hifiman5 Have you heard an audible impact?  It makes sense and functioning as resonators, but many showrooms have multiple sets.  I think the effect has to be slight...at least I hope so.
