[QUOTE="AlleyCat, post: 1170085, member: 2194"] A bit of free advice regarding a trade off between imaging & soundstaging versus getting the best bass in the room: “[B]Third, optimal placement for woofers vs. midrange/high frequencies.[/B] If you've taken the time to optimize speaker placement on a full-range loudspeaker, you understand that there is a compromise between the position for best imaging and soundstage, and best bass performance. [I][B]More often than not, the location for best imaging, and soundstage is not the optimal position for even bass reproduction. So a compromise is made for a more even frequency response in the room over most holographic imaging and soundstage.[/B][/I] By creating a speaker whose bass roloff is easier to mate with a fast sub capable of keeping up with the lightning fast Aurai speakers, one can place the subwoofer (s) optimally for the deepest, smoothest bass response and also place the speakers in a location where midbass, midrange and high frequencies are the most holographic.
