Speaker placement

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if anyone has heard of Bob Robbins speaker placement system and tried it or actually hired Bob himself. I have a difficult room and instead of fumbling around trying different speaker positions with inexperienced listening skills would I be better off hiring Bob? I would also be open to suggestions on speaker placement from everyone here as well. Thanks!

Thank you for the advice. Unfortunately podiums we’re out of my budget so I got GAIA ll and lll footers for the mains and surrounds and OREA pucks for the subs. They have taken the vibrations out of the floor pretty good. I have heard some good things about the HFT kits and will check them out.

I had the same question about room placement, and did two separate methods: the Sumiko method and Cardas method.  Wouldn't ya know it, both of them had the exact same result!  I now enjoy my Klipsch Belles out in the room (out of the corners- blasphemy!) without worrying about it.

Is your room similar to mine?

Go to the cardas site they have a room formula there all you have to do is plug in the width of the room and it will give you the exact spot from the back wall and the sidewall to put the speaker I tried it and it works beautifully.
