Wow, didn't expect for my wife to be more right than me on this one. I'm happy though. It's a bonus for me, since it boosts WAF and we all know why that's a good thing.

I've read quite a bit on sub positioning and how the dimensions of the room affect bass quality. Now, that certainly doesn't mean I understand any of it yet.

Bridgman, my room dimensions are 15'w x 12'l x 8'h. Probably not the best, but I've run a few of the online calculators to see where the frequencies stack up and it doesn't seem to be too bad. Here's a fairly recent floorplan I drew up to use for another post on these forums (back when I was looking at the M50's ):

Bigger Floorplan

While I was fine tuning the positioning of the sectional, I did notice a rather obvious dead spot very close to the optimal listening position, so I'm definitely going have to move the sub. I'll move it over behind the couch first to see how it works.

As always, thanks for keeping me going in the right direction!
