I basically toed in my speakers until my wife said that it sounded good. She's usually right about such things, so I left 'em there.

At least with the M50s, there's a place where the sound just clicks into place. I believe the M60s are more forgiving, so you may already have that click.

Nice setup, btw. Love the gloss.

The room is sweet. I like the lights on the floor, very different and cool.

Wow! Great looking system indeed!

But hey!! Those look like my chairs!!

......actually they do! Same color and everything.

That's were the similarity ends however.......I have vinyl. Two different colors.

.....it works out Ok though.

I also like the lights on the floor. My RPCRT puts out so little ambiant light into the room that extra lighting like that would be a major advantage! Easier on the eyes too. Especially when the scene on TV is dark for a while then suddenly turns really really bright! I hate it when my iris' slams to the lower stops!

I wish my Wife WERE right about absolutely everything, cuz that's the way we're goin'! Right or wrong!!

Very cool setup. I will have to agree on the recommendation to reduce the toe-in. Mine are slightly angled, but I came to the final position after trying various angles over a period of weeks. To give you an idea of how little they are angled, the sweet spot is 9 feet from the mains and the toe-in is about 7 degrees.

Hi,

thanks all for the welcome.

i would have replied earlier but i couldnt log in for days?

i have noticed 2 things by reducing the toe in.

the bass from the sub which is behind me slots into the output from the mains better and transitions between speakers are smoother. especially when playing xbox 360 games were you move and spin around a lot.

by not having the tweeters pointed directly at me i have lost some of the top end but some would say it sounds warmer. still adjusting all the time.

I put the sub in the corner behind me because thats where it produces the deepest bass and it vibrates the chairs in time with whats happening on screen which is pretty cool.

The tv is an lg lcos. last i heard its us release was cancelled but i still managed to get one here in oz and its a great tv. as bright and clear as the plasma i had before it. not dull like any projection ive seen before.
