Problem with soundstage up near ceiling.

This is driving me nuts. I have changed everything. The whole system and still have this issue. The room is about 14'x20'x6'8". When seated in the sweat spot, all the highs seem to be comming from where the wall meets the ceiling. I insulated the joists behind the drop ceiling tiles and tried use Owen Corning 703 in more places than I can count.
I you have ever seen this before, give me a clue.

I lowered the monitors to about 16". This seemed to help little. The tow in/out did nothing. I did not tilt the speakers downward.

Does the soundstage height change when you stand up vs. sitting?

Does not appear to change in height. This was observed by several people.

This sounds like a problem with the listening position. Try elevating your chair 4 feet higher on acoustically-dampened cinder blocks and your problem should be solved.

That sounds like a great plan.

Thanks.........
