Last night I had about 8 bottles of Michelob Golden light in me while cranking up the tunes and cruising the forums on my big screen and playing a little pool.

I get the best imaging when the speakers are aimed about a ft behind my head. When seated the inner side of the speaker cabinet is lined up with each ear. If you have them intersecting in front of you that is severe MOJO.

Randy, about a week ago I changed mine slightly so that they are now intersecting about a foot behind my head. I feel that it has given me slightly better imaging. Avdude, I don't think it will really make a difference for movies. But you should definitely be able to hear a difference with a good 2-channel recording. Instead of Molsons, try Rickard's Red...the poor Canadian's substitute for wine .

Ok .. i will try it and see what happens .. I actually moved the left spk to right beside the audio rack and the right speaker closer to the sub and toed them so they intersect behind me..This also puts them even. the other way the left was about 2 feet ahead of the right because of the wall that juts out on the left side of the hall way .. My only concern is that the left will suffer from not having a wall behjind it .. it sits very close to the hallway opening now.. I do love a Rickards red but not from a bottle, i am more partial to the stuff on tap .. it's even cheaper ... I have been a dedicated Molson export drinker for 25 years .... No need to change a good thing now .. Avdude

Oh you’re thinking about that crap we send to Canada and the mid west.  You have to drink micro brews from the Northwest. I’m trying to choke down Chipotle Ale right now. For some odd reason it isn’t getting any better no matter how much of I drink. YUK…. But it’s 9%, so maybe it’ll get better as the night goes.
To the OP…. I’d invest in Avia. You’ll be surprised at what you end up setting your X-over to after you cycle through the sub set up menu. Plus, the video calibration piece is very good.

I don't think we import American beer to Canada,, maby some but not alot .. the Coors and such is made here as we have the beer making process down to a science .. hehehe!!! I will try and find the link that they have for the package with Avia and a meter.. I'm sure my TV could use a few tweaks also ..
I really didn't notice a differnce moving my 60's while wathcing Saving Pvt Ryan last night but I must say the bridge scene was just amazing.. I sat there in awe as the tanks rollled up and things were blowing up ... If I had any doubt's about the HSU sub they all disapeared with just that scene.. Being kinda anal I had been tossing around maby selling the HSU to get a Axiom sub so I had a Matching system .. Until I can actually hear a axiom sub I am very satisfied with the HSU ...But a Axiom sub would sure look nice someday to go with my cherry Axioms... Now back to msic listening and trying to find that sweet spot for the speaker placement ... Good thing I have some zip cord around .. My kids think I have lost my marbles crawling around on the floor listing to sub sounds ... Someday they will understand ... I hope!!!

I took the pic from as close to the back wall as i could get.. My couch is about 10 feet back from my speakers and i tried to "toe" them in so the intersected about 6 inches ahead of the seating position.. I even taped a string to them and ran it to the couch to make sure i had them "toed" properly ..
