Green mountain audio eos hx tweeter distance question

I lost my setup manual for the EOS tweeter distance so was wondering if anyone recalls the recommended tweeter distance to faceplate that Roy recommended if seated approximately 8 feet away.  I believe it stated something like 2 5/8 inches but was wondering if anyone knew.  I just moved my speakers and the tweeters moved so don't recall the distance I had them set at and I preferred the setting that Roy stated in his manual.
I know I should also experiment on what sounds best but was wondering what Roy also recommended for best phase accuracy at 8 feet.

Thanks,
Marcello

Thanks Chris.  I actually found the PDF copy in one of Roy's emails he had sent me from a few years back when I bought the speakers.

I was waiting for the RX ribbon upgrade but unfortunately as you know Roy passed away.

I've just ordered the new Spatial Audio X5 speakers which I should be receiving in a few weeks.  Have listened to another open baffle speaker at a friends that I really liked so looking to try something different.  I've had four different Green Mountain audio speakers for the last fifteen years and love their sound but want to try the open baffle approach and see if I like it or not.  I will have 60 days home audition in case I prefer the Green Mountain Audios, we will see.

How long have you been using Green Mountain Audio Speakers?


Thanks,
Marcello

Hi Marcello,I've been using my Eos HDs for about 12 years, and had also been speaking with Roy about his new RX ribbon upgrade (in addition to the HX crossover upgrade) prior to his untimely passing.  Please keep me posted on your findings with the open baffle, as I have also been very curious about those as I have a Decware amp and it seems open baffle speakers are all the rage on the Decware forum these days.Best,Chris
