    Surround sound and movie vs. Stereo and music

    Interesting discussion. I totally prefer multi-channel music. With four of exactly the same speaker for L,R,LS,RS it can be magic. (I have 4 Ethos and a Stage-X.) There are some really good surround mixes out there and I prefer them every time over their 2-channel mix. If mixed with care...

    System #521 (Ethos and StageX)

    Thanks for pointing this out. I too have decreased the rake of the Ethos to nearly vertical, but not quite. This makes for a very good experience while seated. However, when standing you lose the treble. But 90% of my listening is while seated. Like you, though I prefer near vertical in my...

    System #521 (Ethos and StageX)

    A21 for fronts, A51 for center, and surrounds. I cannot truly give you a good comparison of other amps, as I started with the A51 twelve years ago, then added A21. I have no experience with the sound of other amps other than a B&K Components amp I also used. I think the sound of the A21 and...

    Question about center sweetspot being only about 12 inches wide...whats set wrong?

    Thank you both for the info and advice. Reducing the toe in has helped slightly. I don't think that I will be able to place them further apart without changing the room or I will hit the close back wall problem. LOL...not gonna even chance telling my better half "here's your seat....right...

    Question about center sweetspot being only about 12 inches wide...whats set wrong?

    Quick newbie question for the placement experts. When I listen to stereo music and singer is perfectly centered between the speakers, my sweet spot is currently only about 12 inches wide. If I move my head 12 inches to left, then the singer moves into the left speaker, and if I move 12...

    System #521 (Ethos and StageX)

    I moved the carpet and tv stand with center channel about six more inches away from the back wall. This puts the center channel in the same plain as the Left and Right speakers. Now all three panels are 36 inches from the back wall. This did make a small improvement with the center...

    System #521 (Ethos and StageX)

    The stage is fine as long as I keep it as far as possible from the back wall. It is the Ethos that are the most problematic with this room layout. The panels had to be at least three feet from the back wall before they sounded right, which is why you see them sticking out so far in the room...
