I would take a serious look at those Used Fyne Audio speakers that were suggested, they work well with tubes. Firing down the long end at the 8.65 foot wall. At least the first several 6.5 feet on each side of the speakers is symmetrical so you will get a consistent soundstage. If the piano is going to sit behind you you will be forced to be nearfield to your speakers to listen and some room reactions can be ignored. Good luck!
Speaker for 11x12 room
Hi guys !
Im in process of building my stereo room there is a sketch of my room
My budget is somewhere around 2.5k Usd
there will be a piano in the 8.53 wall.
what do you think will work the best for me and where is the best placement.
I don’t listen in high volumes. Don’t have measurements for db atm.
my Amplifier is ARC75se .
im considering either floorstands or monitors leaning towards monitors unless I can get a really interesting deal that still will work in this room with floor stand.
thank your for your help!

@daviddas Thank you for the intro to Philharmonic Audio!! Added to the list ...
@fthompson251 ... concur, the Fyne's are worth every penny!!
Some good info OP!! |
1st I would move piano to bedroom. Then I would start with putting speakers along the 12.1 ft wall. Left speaker spaced 3' from the glass door wall with curtain. The right speaker having about 6ft space between it and left speaker. Position the back of speakers at a distance different than that of the distance from side walls. If possible place a low profile equipment rack along the wall shared with bathroom, not at point of 1st reflection, treat that wall with sound panel at 1st reflection point. Place listening chair about 6ft from front plane of speakers.Treat the wall behind chair with absorption panel. Make adjustments from there. You have received many good recommendation for speakers. I will only state that I use Fritz carbon 7s in a similar sized room. Sold direct with 60 day trial period. Very tube friendly.
