Tell me about your sweet spot.


If you were to take two flashlights and place one each on the center of each of your two main speakers, when the indivudual lights were pointing at your optimum listening position would the two lights
A/ Meet
B/ Criss Cross
C/ run parallel pointed exactly at your right and left ears
or
D/ run parallel outside of your ears.
Of course many other factors are involved in speaker placement, but Im curious how similar or disimilar your answers may be. All the best to everyone in Audiogon Land !

Speakers 8' apart, 4.5' from back wall, 3' from side walls. Listening position 8' from point midway between speakers with speakers angled in so that those imaginary flashlight beams would cross about 8' behind my head.
Speakers 10 ft apart slight toe-in crossing 8 ft behind head, 3ft from front wall, 7 ft from side walls, seat position at 11 ft from speakers 6 ft from bak wall.
I've been playing around with this for the last few days...sigh...(just realized how bad that sounds as I'm typing). I sit in nearfield, and have the lasers meeting at about 4 inches from my forehead (damn, why is it so hard to answer this thread!!).
In all seriousness, I was sort of surprised at how much better they sounded with the extra toe-in. I've been repositioning the speakers since I received the Neuance shelves a few days before, and out of frustration tried that and it worked like a charm.
My VMPS Supertowers crossfire about two feet in front of me. Works excellently.
