B&W 705 S3 with bad acoustics


We Recently moved into a new home that has terrible room acoustics, 12' ceilings, tile floors, glass window walls.  Open floor plan with no possibility or room treatment. I've never owned B&W speakers curious if they will glare in a very resonate room. Previous tried Kef Rs meta, Dynaudio special 40 and Sonus Faber Sonetto w/ Rel T9x with no luck. Paird with Hegel h390. Auralic streamer.

Thanks everyone.

I was planning on using REW once I got a sound signature that was somewhat palatable. 

I'm hesitant going back to horns, previous owned Forte IV's which were a love/hate relationship. The thought had crossed my mind though.

It's all a bigger compromise that I bargained for with this room. The harsh reality that good equipment can't trump room acoustics is a hard pill to swallow.

@renosteve AVOID THE KLIPSCH HERITAGE SERIES LIKE IT IS AIDS.

 

And like I said your room is paramount. Anyone that tells you to get a badly executed Klipsch horn design is the reason this audio space if filled with BS

 

Instead of directing you to sound, pragmatic solutions. They're here posting a wonky sounding speaker

I use an equalizer to make up for the room acoustics.  It works.  Also use a microphone and take measurements for each speaker.
