I hear you and JohnK regarding the major 250 Hz issue. But here's why I'm wondering if changing the toe-in would help:
1) remember, the speakers are horizontal rather than vertical
2) when I measured just a couple of feet away from the (alleged) sweet spot, that 250 Hz dip disappeared completely. (I did not measure the 2.5 Khz response away from the sweet spot)
So I'm assuming, perhaps incorrectly, that since the entire area doesn't exhibit this 250 Hz dip, that I can make the sweet spot better by not having both speakers directed at the sweet spot (and hence concentrating/focusing that 250 Hz killing reflection off the ceiling). I know I'm just moving the problem rather than truly fixing it, but that may need to be the interim solution.
I know that this 250 Hz issue is the key problem to fix. But there is no way I'm going to be able to put 2" - 4" of material on our 7'6" ceiling! Forget WAF, I don't think *I* can deal with that! This is too public of an area, not a dedicated HT/Stereo space.
If I'd stop being so lazy I'd take some photos of the area and speaker locations, and you'd understand the limitations! Again, I really appreciate your efforts on my behalf!
