how can I make the back wall transparent?


If this is the wrong place for this topic please move it

My listening room is 11.5 x 15 and my speakers are 3.5 ft from the back wall.

I have spent considerable effort tweaking stuff, to the point where the system sounds very spacious and deep, BUT it still does not sound as spacious as systems with 6-8 ft of free space behind the speakers.

Is there any aesthetically pleasing wall treatment available that would give me that depth without moving the speakers

Taking the wall down is not an option:-)

Williewonka,

What is the final position of your speakers relative to the wall behind them and the side walls?

Thanks,
Howard
Perhaps I should take care of my exterminations with trying to listening to your band Wolf. Can you share?
I cross my single driver speakers in front of my listening position in a medium size room. 17d X 35w and I sit about 13ft away with the speakers about 13 ft apart. Cathedral ceilings. No constriction of soundstage.
Aggielaw the following dimensions apply to the centre of the front of the speaker
23.5 inches from side wall and 37.25 inches from rear wall

The speakers are toe-in 0.5 inch.

I tried several toe-in angles, but for the Sonograms in this room the angle selected gave the widest image with the greatest depth and kept standing waves to a minimum.

I had read lots of posts on speaker placement and they all talk about the image snapping in place - my experience was a little more gradual.

I must admit that this new "spaciousness" only came about after getting all my "other ducks" in a row - in my case those last ducks were my interconnects, power supply and power cords, without which I do not think the whole thing would have come together so vividly.

Not that the old ones were bad, they just didn't have the same synergy as those currently in place

It freaks me out just how good this system sounds now :-)
