Focal Sopra 2

I think so, 30" from the side walls would seem to be ok. My room is 17 x 25 and I have mine about 40" from the sides and about 8 feet out into the room. You may have to play around with the toe in a bit. But not a big deal. Perhaps you could also try them on the long wall? I prefer the short wall.
Don't forget the Iso-acoustics Gaia 1 footers.

Hello 

I had my Sopra 2 for about three months and after several attempts in placement I am finally able to snap everything in focus with great imaging and tonal balance.   They are 3.5 ft from rear wall and toe in to cross over approx 3-4 feet behind the listening area.  I am using Gryphon Diablo 300 with Voodoo Definition spk cable.  I am very happy with the result however as you all know the height of the tweeter is measure at approx 35 inches from the floor, with my listening distance at 11 feet away they are not exactly ear level. 

**Any of you tilt the speaker upward a bit to compensate for this issue?  

Leaving them as it is I am more than happy but just thinking if a little fine tuning will further improve the already great sound.

BTW anyone commented that the Sopra being bright or harsh it is very likely because of the placement, they are quite sensitive in this aspect but once it is in place the soundstage will open up and speakers will disappear.

winesome993,
I have my Focal Sopra 2's about 8 feet out into the room. I totally agree that you must move them around to find the best spot in your room. All rooms are different as are all speaker's.

I recently added the IsoAcoustics Gaia ll to my Electra 1038s and cannot believe the improvement! Game changer on this speaker....

Thanks Ozzy.

Regarding tilting the tweeter upward any comment? thanks
