From owning Carrera's for over three years try 8' apart and around 9.5' back. 10' apart is a bit much in my opinion for book shelf speakers. As to any harshness or sibilance give them a while as even soft dome tweeters need break in.
Integrated amplifier for Fritz Speakers
Hi All,
I started a discussion about "Monitors for 14 x 20 Room" back last November. There was a lot of good advice and Fritz Speakers kept being positively mentioned.
At the time, I thought WAF would be low for a larger sized monitor. Now I think I have the stage set for Fritz speakers and am thinking either new Carreras or Carbons.
I would prefer an integrated amp because it is one less piece of equipment io place in in a constrained space.
I would also prefer solid state to solid state, in order to have this system as problem free as possible.
Your ideas and suggestions, please

@dsper - if those Carbons are new and anything like the Carrerra's I have, in a few hundred hours they will sound nothing like they do now. Mine were pretty ratty sounding with the various frequency ranges sounding unacquainted with each other for well over a month - but eventually they get to where they should be and you've got magic! |
You are correct about the sound changing. I am at about 50 hours and it seems like the treble has suddenly gotten more forward and accentuated...less laid back. |
