I currently have ML Summits that sound fantastic, but of course there is always that last bit of bliss we all think we can achieve. I am considering used CLXs, but want to know if my room sounds like a good fit. My Summits are dialed in well, but since the CLXs are considerably wider, with the bass panels closer to the side walls, I am concerned. My room is 16'10" wide, 27' long. The current Summits INNER side of the panels are 46.5" from the side walls (outer panels start at 3' from side walls) and 39" (again, the panel, not the woofer box) out from the front wall. So the CLX INNER side of the panel could be no farther into the room than the 46.5" from the side walls. That is about 10ft between the speakers. So does that leave room for the CLX to breath since the bass panel will be considerably closer to the side walls than my Summit's bass drivers are? Any other considerations to keep me from looking into them?
There is nowhere close to me to audition, so I would be buying blind. I love the Summits though, so I cant imagine the CLX isnt better in every way...
Thanks!
