Originally thought that this notch came from my CLSs,but other speakers exhibited the same behaviour with a test CD-Frequencies between 90-125 are sucked out.Is there a solution?Thanks,Raanan

I am not sure how big your room is but I am experimenting now with MY CLS and wide positioning with very near wall set ups. I am noticing as you found with NO toe you can place them closer to the side walls and still retain center image. It actually sounds like a Huge venue when done this way and the bass reinforcement is a welcome factor. The CLS is amazing at imaging. I have put these things as close as 1 foot from the side walls and am moving things as we speak. The corners may need a little trap but I will let you know. What I have found with CLS is toe usually centers the image at the expense of width and airiness. These things throw sound sideways like no other ML design.(Excluding the CLX) . I am actually running them with NO subwoofer and am getting some great bass. Bass how it should sound, tight and snappy, not bloated and boomy.
I really think that with room reinforcement and such these things will do a solid 40 hz. Its not gonna happen in every room but rooms with hard surfaces floors and walls with treatment will help.
The size is 6 meters by 3.5 by 2.8 high,roughly 21 feet by 11.25 by 9 feet high.If I place the speakers too close to the back walls ,bass is greatly reinforced but I lose HF and resolution and imaging.I have been searching for the best placement for about 19 years.
Laughing my ass of hard as I totally under stand. I am constantly moving them a bit hear or there. I should have stock in Blue tape I use so much. Your room is damn near identical to mine. Where are they placed NOW? Mine are currently 137.2cm from the front wall and 53.3 cm from the sides. my chair is about 370.8cm back from the center line of the speakers with NO toe. If you look at my system link you can see I have a knock out behind each speaker where the fireplace sticks out(that is a nightmare in itself for sound) but I have a corner trap I am experimenting with. Do you run stands ? If so I HIGHLY recommend them. It was night and day with clarity and image detail.

Can't find my tape measure but,it seems that we may have the same distance to the front wall,may differ by one centimeter.
Its amazing that we have damn near the same measurements in almost identicle rooms with differing ears. It goes to show that the CLS has common consistency in its sound, and we have good taste ! Try and go wide I have been running mine close to the side walls and get a HUGE stage. NO Toe is the way. What are you using for amplification and upstream gear?
