    The size of the soundstage

    Ethan, When I sit in the listening position I also have a relatively nice sound stage. I am listening to the music through the speakers (and not at the speakers) - so I have the illusion that the sound is in front of me. The horizontal dispersion of the sound (left-right) is nice as is the...

    Dynaudio BM5A with Dynaudio BM9S sub: the correct settings

    Yeah, I have received the "correct" settings procedure form Dynaudio :D. I tuned the BM9S sub + BM5A monitors settings - all checked by spectrum analysis measurments. It was a bit time consuming, but now the sub helps nicely :). trif.

    Dynaudio BM5A with Dynaudio BM9S sub: the correct settings

    xstatic, Yes, I have read the manuals. On the BM5A there is a swith: Flat/60Hz/80Hz. On the sub there is a switch under the SAT/Sub section:Flat/60Hz/80Hz. OK, Let say I set on the speakers 60 Hz and on the sub also 60Hz? And ones this is done, to WHAT position should I put the Sub Lowpass...

    Dynaudio BM5A with Dynaudio BM9S sub: the correct settings

    Currently my monitor setup consist of the BM5A speakers, and the BM9S sub. Can anybody tell me what settings should I use on the BM5A (for the highpass: flat, 60Hz or 80 Hz) and in the same time on the BM9S sub (sat highpass settings?) and where should I turn the sub lowpass filter...

    Monitors for mixing?

    sirslurpee, Appr. for 10 years I have tried to mix on headphones. From cheap ones to a very expensive ones (really expensive ones). Well, I could compose-arrange(?) with them, but I was never able to get any mix decent from them. And I have tried to discuss this issue with many guys, and I was...

    closer to the wall is better!?

    Meantime the acoustic treatment of the room progressed. My room is very difficult to treat but: 1: good seating 2: monitor placement already did a big improvement. 3: Without any treatment the swing in the 20Hz to 300 Hz range was appr. 30dB. With limited initial treatment this swing is bit...

    closer to the wall is better!?

    In the text below I speak about these traps: 100 cm x 50 cm x 10 cm, 70kg/m3 mineral wool panels with batting and covered with muslin. They are also absorbing mid/high frequencies. I have read (I do not remember where) that putting bass traps behind the speakers on the front wall, does not help...

    closer to the wall is better!?

    Thanks a lot, I am going to place all the panels on their place and see what comes out. Work, work, work. BTW: In the "closer" position the mix is closer to the headphone mix. However, in the "further" position the place definition instruments in the mix is better. trif.

    closer to the wall is better!?

    In many nearfiled monitor's user manual is stated: do not place the monitors close to the wall(s). In my project studio (9m x 4.5 m) the Tapco S8 (on stands) are placed along the longer wall (no other possibility). I had them (the front of the speaker) about 80 cm from the front wall. I had no...
