I've been listening to my new Source speakers and have noticed a couple of things. I've mostly listened to box speakers so it may explain what I'm hearing.
I've noticed that the vocals on many of my cd's now sound very thin. For example; Chris Isaac has always sounded chesty on my past speakers. This is a sound that I like. I tried absorptive panels against the wall behind the speakers and did not like the results.
While listening to HD Dish TV through the Sources; I get an echo. The speakers sound like PA speakers. I suspect I'm hearing the surround sound programming of HD tv.
These speakers are plain spooky to listen to but the thin sound bugs me.
My listening room is 14' x 20' with vaulted ceilings. The speakers are on the long wall about 7' apart. They are 31" from the front wall to the center of the panels. I sit one foot from the back wall. Walls are single layer drywall with various wall hangings to break up/ absorb waves/reflections. Ceiling corners and two sides are treated with room tunes.
Thanks for any advice.
