Viridian, I take it you're either not a Wilson/Krell/or Nordost fan or that the "Q" in Q-Sound stands for neverending Quest for sound that will never happen. I heard the CD in an audio showroom, where the Q-Sound worked. The dog was off in the distance to my right. There was another part where the sound of a thunder cloud traveled from behind my seat position and moved toward the front of the room.
Speaker phase and timing
I have a Roger Waters CD that is recorded in Q-Sound. When played, a dog bark is supposed to sound "like it is in the neighbor's yard." However, on my system, it is pegged just left of center between my speakers.
Apparently, my speaker phase and/or timing is wrong. I have tried moving/angling the speakers to little effect. The best I got was sitting three feet from the speakers and the dog bark then came straight from the right speaker. I have fairly decent equipment (Wilson/Krell/Nordost), so perhaps the room is the problem?
Can anyone coach me on how to adjust for proper speaker phase and timing? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
