^^good tips, what about placement also? I have a big sliding glass door in my family room and I am starting to wonder if the speaker's sound best halfway in the room. Right now I have them moved pretty far out. I hear you passedPawn, sounds like you have a real difficult acoustic situation there.
Impossible actually. 4 glass french doors, larged arched windows, granite bar... I've even got a large fish tank in that room. Impossible!
When I go into the listening rooms at the high end audio places I'm so enraptured. My kids are all out of the house, and I'd love to make one of those rooms (3 spare bedrooms!) a listening room or home theater, but of course my wife needs to maintain the museums. Ugh.
