Here is a great track for front to back layering. Pretty fun in here.

Great tune. It's a whole different layer cake on the actives compared to M2OW. The crappy subs in my M2OW system are ruining the depth.

I tride the M5s tilted up on folding chairs. In this room I had to shim the back legs with CD cases to get them level. Sounded much better to my ears that way. Whatever works though. smile

Admittedly, they were too high to be tilting up and were firing above my head likely from that distance.

I guess the takeaway is the variability with proper setup and tweaking for individual rooms. The guy I had over had never heard a properly set up stereo pair. Really makes a big difference when the speakers are put where they sound best and not look best. I always tell people they will get used to the speakers being out in the room a bit. Easier to vacuum behind ‘em!

Hi Trevor

I don't think a folding chair will help you out there. Try putting them on the floor and putting something under the speaker to tip it up so it's aimed at your seating position.

Interesting, Philip. Where is the soundstage in that set-up. Is it "on the floor"?

Right. Get M100s. In a room like yours, they are incredible!
