    Absorbtion or some diffusion

    My panels are 15" wide I think the classic are about 9" wide but I have been experimenting with the toe in and it does make a Difference with no0t so much toe in, I used the flashlight method to set them up the first way and that's what I come up with but you just have to keep experimenting with...

    Absorbtion or some diffusion

    Absorbtion or some diffusion

    So are you saying to not toe the speakers in so much and fill in the bare wall behind the speakers with thicker panels and check to see if the panels have any reflective elements

    2 Sets of ESL's for bigger sweet spot

    Brad I am already using the focus C18 so the centre is good, how can you improve that except to go to the illusion but I am using the ReQuests for L & R and I been reading the illusion matches better with the 15A or 13As a costly upgrade and not much of an improvement from ReQuests. May be I'll...

    Thanks Jonathan the fellow that I bought these from replaced them with 13As so I didn't go wrong buying them even though I replaced the panels and didn't really have to at that time just thought they were 27 years old so I did it anyway he was an older fellow like myself and said he never abused...
