room setup suggesion needed


Hi everyone,

 

The question is for gurus of room setup.

Question is if anyone can suggest improvement of the situation where there is not much room for adjustment.

So there you go: 

1) Room conditions

room size 30ft x 30ft

audio wall with the location near centerline

rehearsing distance from the wall 9ft

sound focal point with speakers directed 8ft sound cross path directly at rehearsal point  ( not much room to adjust focal point could be pushed back max 3ft, not too happy about that idea)

speakers spread at 10ft center to center ( could be spread possibly to max 12ft with given wires)

speaker face 2ft off the wall less than 1ft space behind ( could be moved forward and tilted)

wall treatments floor dampening as well, floor standing speakers on spikes.

2) SYSTEM SPEC

speakers JBL 4367

speaker wires FURTECH Douglas 7ft be-wire Rhodium spades 

Amp Pass Labs X250.8

Pre amp Pass Labs XP-12

Phono Pass Labs XP-15

Turntable VPI Classic 1 JMW 10.5  Hana ML

Server Mac mini  

DAC Schiid Modius balanced out

inter connector cable Canari XLR 

system fully balanced 

power cables FURTEH 

 

 

Honestly system sounds really good, but better is enemy of good so is there anything I can do better or is there anything that I'm doing wrong ?

 

Thanks for opinions!

It is impossible for me to comment without seeing and hearing the situation. I can say that your system deserves better sources.

@ditusa ok I get the concept but execution could be tricky since they weight 157 lb each,

 

@m-db  well they are bit undersized according to QSF calculation how ever they are the biggest I was willing to deal with, still 157lb is not a Mickey Mouse

- Unless i missed it, i don’t see any indication of a subwoofer. So, that’s a couple of octaves of music (that the artist intended!) that you never heard yet.

- This is the kind of lumpalicious your room would look like (height assumed since you don’t mention it)...Depending on where you sat, depending on where your speakers sat, sbir, etc, there could be some lousy things happening to the sound (that the ears may have just gotten "used" to). There are threads here with material that covers what you could do, if such lousy things are going on. For example, the subwoofer, if implemented correctly is also a crucial "room treatment" device (it can fix things that conventional treatments can’t fix or the quantity becomes impractical, etc.) Have you ever measured your room? On a positive note, the fact that you have a big room is a good thing...lot of problems become easier to fix (big room guys = smaller problems, small room guys = bigger problems).
