Sounds like a great system that is only lacking vinyl! Those happen to be almost the exact dimensions of my room, but because of the layout I have to go on the long wall with my system. As far as the laser tiltback goes, what's your process? I've got both a laser Leica disto that I use for placement and toe and a laser/ bubble level for side tilt. I was just going to use a plumb bob to measure tilt back. Is there a better way? Unless you don't want to give away secrets... Ha!
Thanks Johnny

His turntable will be back in action soon.
We are installing a new head shell and cartridge.
((As far as the laser tilt back goes, what's your process?))
Simple bubble level, adjust front spikes for proper side to side. Get 2 post it notes on the wall behind your listening chair.
Place the laser on top of each Vandersteen speaker aiming toward post it notes, draw a circle with a sharpie pen where the laser lands, adjust each back spike so that each speaker has exact tilt on target.
Then listen at normal height, then slouch lower in chair, and then listen sitting on a pillow.
One of the 3 positions will be
very obvious.
Last part adjust both speakers to you normal seating position.
Cheers JohnnyR

Great trick JohnnyR. I've done something similar, but never quite that precise. I'll give it a try and let you know.
Thanks!

Curtis, I understand now how to adjust the tilt, thanks. Now how do you adjust the toe-in, is it pretty much the same thing, leave the laser light on the center-top of the speaker then slowly turn them in until the light lands on the center of you listening chair or where your head would be?
