Hello gentleman.... This is my first post and hope some of you have some good insight. First my system consists of the following: A/V receiver: Integra 50.3 Pioneer Elite: BDP62FD Front and rear speakers: Paradigm Studio 20 Center channel: Paradigm CC490 Subwoofer: Golden Ear Force Field 4 Attached is my room layout with fronts, rears and center channel noted. The scale is one square equals 1 foot so interpreting relationships is possible. Currently the Golden Ear is in front of the fire place and I'm just not getting the base I want. Let me describe the room characteristics. Behind the sofa, the entire wall is mirror. To the left of the sofa is all glass with plastic verticle blinds. The living area is sunken by 2 feet (10 foot ceiling). The remainder has an 8 foot ceiling. I know its a challenging room for acoustics but where the main speakers are located is about the best I have found through trial and error. The GE sub is located in front of the fireplace firing toward the sofa. Oh, and there is a coffee table in front of the sofa that is basicly a solid wood rectangle. I currently have a REL T9 on order should be in in a week or so I was going to put where the GE is (fron of the fireplace) and relocate the GE behind the sofa (firing accross basicly creating a sound traugh) moved from the wall about a foot. Another location would be to the left of the the sofa firing accross the listeners feet. One consideration is replacing the GE with a Pardigm Seismic 110. I listenned to it at my local dealer and boy is it powerful! The decision for the REL T9 is for its musicality. It will be connected to the high level outputs of the A/V receiver where the sub will be connected via LFE. I would like opinions and suggestions regarding my selection of the REL T9, selling the GE and replacing it with the Seismic 110 and any other suggestions regarding placement etc..... Thank you all who respond in advance... [ATTACHMENT=487]Room layout.JPG (1,014k. JPG file)[/ATTACHMENT]
