Hello,
As I mentioned in a previous post I recently bought a pair of L20Ts. After living with them for a while I find them a bit "hard" and aggressive, most notably in the upper mids and highs. My room stinks and the set up is only temporary (checking them out after Ebay). They are currently on Heresys for stands in front of my Apollos, which are against the wall. They are about 5 and a half feet apart and about 3 and a half feet from rear wall to baffle. My listening spot is about 7 feet away. I live in a condo with an open floor plan, living room, dining area and kitchen really just one big truncated "L". Would someone more familiar with this speaker be so kind as to suggest some placement baselines so that I can at least be in the ball park when I start to experiment. I have proper stands but am not using them as the room is so cluttered and they would be in traffic. The room is shared with the TV, bookcases, my wife's desk and about a thousand LPs, not to mention the four Heresys and my beloved Apollos. I know I am trying to shoe horn them in to a less than optimal environment but it is the best I can do until I can liquidate some of my speaker accumulation. If you can decipher this ramble any and all help would be appreciated. Thank you for your time and consideration.
With regards,
Analogman
