Hi all,
We all know that the back wall plays a major rle in the erformance of the ML range as sound emits from both front and back.
Panels should be placed not too far or to close to the back wall and if possible try some shelving or drapes....
But here where I can nit find any info on, a simple question that is:
- does the back wall need to be exactly identical behind each panel???? Let's say there's a bookshel or AV rack behind one panel, then either nothing/bare wall,some paintings,drapes..... behind the other panel, will that affect the sound coming back from the wall.
I know some will tell me to try it out, but do. T really fancy putting some hole in a wall just for experiment.
Common sense is telling me that yes it does need to be identical, but if somebody can confirm that, it would be great and save me some future headache and probably costly issues.
I also know some of you will ask me why do I need to have no identical walls behind the speakers. The answer is simp,e, it s called a wife...
I kind of made a pact with the devil, if I can say so very lightly ( she s sitting next to me so hopefully she will not know what I am typing.), but the deal with our new house was, I designed it to suit the Local conditions of the block of land, I get my man cave of a theatre room to be equipped and furnished as I need and also get a pair of new ML, (but no sub) to fit in our living/family room, and she gets to interior design it.
Needless to state that She now has a few ideas popping up here and there.
One of them is putting some shelving behind one panel of either books or all my av equipment and some paintings, ornaments behind the other.
Was I mad to do this deal??I guess time will tell. The builder looked astonished when it came to do internal selection and I just pointed towards the wife. He said I was mad...
To be honest, she does a real good job, and she s the one I ve got to thank for styling my old bachelor pad for sale and making a generous profit...
Thanks guys ( for your advice to come and also for those that are married,understanding my deal)
