Jim, You mentioned the speakers sounded ok until you raised them up. Maybe you should lower the speakers to their original height and just listen for a while as your new speakers break in.
Getting overtone in a pair of bookshelf speaker.
I just bought a pair of Music Hall Marimba bookshelf speakers, and currently experimenting with placement. I changed the previous height of the tweeter by placing two books under each cabinet. During the first listening session, they sounded OK, but now today after the changes made, they sounded crinkly in the high end with somewhat of hollow overtone in the midrange.
I do not expect them to pressurize a 12X14 room with full sound, but I am a bit disappointed at the tonal balance. I have them about 4 ft from the side walls and 15 inches from back wall which is glass, but has slat shades that can be closed. They are approx 5 ft apart and occupy the far end of the long axis. Need suggestions on how to find ideal tonal balance. Thanks
