Here's a very primitive "paint" drawing of my viewing room.
The position it's in now delived the best low end response. When I installed it, I didn't have the radio shack sound pressure meter though. Position was done with a friend of mine and we both agreed that the corner placement added most punch, however at the expense of a very uneven response curve. At the time we used some test tones that I downloaded of the web, again without a db meter, we simply listened. The dip seemed to accur less in the spot right next to the couch (Just left of the coach). Using our ears we agreed that there was a suckout.
We spend the better part of an evening, but I really realised that it wasn't going to be as simple as I had hoped for.
The corner placement is also the most practicle I'm not sure I'm being allowed anywhere else to put it! Better half got a shock when I got the big black box delivered! - I thought it was small and cute - she didn't really agree!
