Suggestions for optimizing Argent Room Lenses?


My Merlin VSM-SE bBAM speakers are positioned according Merlin's guidelines at one end of a very large, rectangular space (14 ft. W x 30 plus ft. L x 8 ft. H).

Any suggestions for optimizing my 3 Argent Room Lenses, for this (obviously less than optimal) room, and for these speakers?

Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

I have my lenses positioned as I described above, and my system throws a soundstage 4 feet wider than the lens positions. That's 4 feet wider on each side. I don't think that the lenses are limiting your soundstage.

ive had mine placed just as twl explains in his post,the center lens will control the depth of the soundstage,IF that gives your system too much of a wall of sound,try placing 2 lenses about a foot behind an imaginary line,behind & to the outside of the speakers,i found i got less digital glare from my system this way

Room lenses are not designed for use in the corners. If you use anything in the corners they should be bass traps. I have been using 3 lenses for a few years now in a similar fashion as described by Tom (TWL)and they make quite a difference with my Aerial 10Ts.
