A little more toe-in on the M60s, so that the tweeters point at your ears, should be tried, rather than moving them closer together.




Thanks John. I will try that. I have angled the M60s a bit toward the the middle of the listening area. I'll try to angle it a bit more and see if it result in any better sound or not.

Looks fantastic! But I would ditch the clock. Why would you want to remind yourself how much time you're "wasting" in front of your system?

Hey Edwin. I know I'm in the minority here, but I like the clock. By the way, everything else looks terrific as well.

The clock made me chuckle. A few weeks ago I got in trouble keeping the kids up too late watching some movie. "We lost track of time," I said. "Maybe you need a BIG CLOCK in there with you!"

I didn't have a clock in there before and I got into some trouble for getting lost in time . I would have just ignored a smaller clock, that's why I put a big a** clock in there now :P Beside, I have the ability to mentally block the clock from my view when I'm watching a movie or listening to music (which kinda beat the purpose of having the clock there in the first place LOL)

I usually keep an old digital alarm clock (with bright red numbers) next to the computer while I'm playing WoW. Saves pain.

I have the time displayed on our Motorola set top box display window, and sometimes that's too much.

Edwin, did you give John's toe-in suggestion a try yet? I don't know about you and most other folks here but it sure seems like I'm forever tweaking and playing around with speaker placement and furniture movement only to find most often the original placement was perfectly fine.

I haven't try John's suggestion yet. I'm still at work right now (not sure why even bother coming in to work today with tomorrow being a holiday) I will try it later today when I get home

I've tried John's suggestion. It seems like the sound improved slightly, nothing too dramatic though. It sounded as if I get more seamless soundscape, slightly more focus. Before, I feel that there was a slight gap in the middle area between the two main speakers.

Thanks for the advise, John.
