Here is the general setup:
(All connected to Denon AVR-2805, Panasonic DVD-S35)
Listening seat approx 10' from VP150.
'150 is on top of TV, with wedges underneath to point it at listening position.
M22's on 16" stands approx. 12" from side walls, back of cabinets 12" from rear wall, approx 9' apart. They sound great w/wo sub.
EP350 inboard of LF speaker, back of cabinet is 12" or so from rear wall.
QS8's on QSS stands beside and slightly behind listening position.
The '150 just sounds a little boxy, a little "forward in the mid-range." The individual speakers sound clear, and I can hear no crackle or fuzz in them at all. Phase is correct (as I double-check again). I'm hoping to get some ideas on how to get a little better sound out of it.
Today marks one week since arrival/setup. I have enjoyed the
system immensely. Just this one last little sticking point with the '150. Also, a buddy is bringing over his HSU VTF-3 MKII (?) tomorrow so we can have a subwoofer showdown. He already envies the M22/QS8/VP150 combo (even with my audio-geek concern over the 150). He has a BIG RETAIL setup other than the HSU. But the HSU is IMPRESSIVE. I want to do a side-by-side, and he wants to hear it with the Axioms.
Thanks,
Mark
