Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners Trade off question

See here we go again ...... I was logged on today as you see, with the temp password that was done yesterday. After that email from Serenity, I went to preferences and I changed it. I know it worked, because I logged out and I logged back on. I know what the passwrd was because I set it to my hometown with a capital B. I come home and tonight using Edge it did not work, I went into Firefox and still did not work. Why does it change, this is constantly for the past two years. Anyways, I just did another reset, so now I have a wierd one.

Anyways thanks guys and yes Serenity I am nutz, cause all this is driving me nuts. If I could have a day at axiom I would have the M80v3 and 4's and HP and the 60's and the m22's and the EP500s and I would check them all out and know what I want. But, I can't
Thanks for that diagram, currently I am making some treatments, the room will be treated when completed. Currently I am upstairs in my living room which is about the same size. I have to wait 1yr 6 months before that room gets a redo. Daughter is off to University and I am claiming that room and her big bedroom I just built lol. But, that diagram is so close to what I have setup now. My M80s though are 31" from the wall to the front and I sit 13 ft. A little bit further than I want but, my dual movie chair would look so out of place 3/4 of the way in the room lol.
The M80's are 31" to the inside edges from the side walls. so close to your diagram.

I plan on selling in a few years, no need to pay outrages in town taxes and when I get the next house there will be atleast an addition put on. The room will be as Of now I have drawn out 15x23x9I have me sitting about 14'6" from the front wall about 11'6" from the speakers. the speakers about 9' apart and about 3' in from the walls. Again it gives me some wiggle and play room.
I thnk I am just keeping my 80's and 180 and get the subs. Exlab, I priced it out and it would cost me $6500 for a M22, VP160 and 4-ep500's. or I can keep what I got and spend $3200 on two factory Outlet subs or $4600 for two SVS Sealed Ultra's. I think thats good enough. Then I can grab a new Pre/Pro ( AVM60 ) and add a ADA 1250 3ch and a 4 ch ADA1000 for the rears. I have a MCA50 for my height and 2 ATMOS if I go that route. I am thinking more so Front heights and wides

Actually, while we are having that snowstorm this weekend Serenity I am going to move the stereo down stairs and take over the room for the weekend lol

The dimensions described are to the front center of the baffle. Sorry if that wasnt clear. I have already cheated your seating position back as much as I can while keeping a good listener to speaker ratio. If you move back further you may hear 2 speakers and not a transparent soundstage. If you treat the sidewalls you will definitely have to move forward. The apparent width of the soundstage will decrease dramatically, as you lose those strong lateral reflections.

I'm not sure about the space you are, or will be in, as you mentioned a couple, but you can reverse engineer my math and make it work for your next room. This only took me roughly a 1/2 hour, so no biggie. It was fun.

Couple meaning in a couple years, I am selling the house and when I buy another I will have a room or addition added on for that size.

Yes, what I was saying was with your diagram, my setup is pretty well on what you have in the diagram, save a few inches here and there. Right now I have no option to move my seating position. My speakers are a bit farther apart but toed in. I do not hear two speakers, I can actually use 2ch and one would think the centre channel is on.
I think, ( I cannot go back as I will lose this writing ) but you have the M80 37" to the front from the wall. I am 31" I go closer, because I do not have a sub and I get a bit more bottom end.
Thanks for your time on that diagram

Troy as opposed to 4 Ep500s you would get far lower frequencies with the EP600 or EP800 as they are both tuned lower.
I'm just stepping up to my first 500, I'm in an old apartment with basically the same dimensions 15x19x7.5. though the back of my room is open to bedrooms and washroom, and one side is open to an equal sized kitchen. I find my small subs ineffective with my M80s, SVS PB1000 and a cheap 150 watt 12.
If you have a large opening on either side try facing your speakers away from it so you don't end up needing to pressurize another area of your house.

And there it goes again ;(
I was logged on this afternoon as we see and just had to reset that password again ???????

Anyways, phones are dead at Axiom.

Brendo, yeh only way I was doing 4 subs was with the M22. I am only going with two now , unless I hear something more from Craigsub and that EP800 lol
