I was under the delusion that once I got the P.Audio 316 horns with their 100 X 100 dispersion this would work out. I was wronger than wrong. The horns were so far above the seated position you got only off-axis poo-poo. I could EQ it flat at one location, but the slightest change in position brought new horrors to the ear.

I put the JBL boxes on the floor, moved the big Altec boxes to the corner running them as mono subs with a line level 35Hz first-order filter. That will be a "movies only" thing.

With the horns at ear level, a Crown K on the 2225's and a Crown D-75A on the 2435's they at least play music now - maybe not great, but one whole hell of a lot better.

I've got to get back to working on the bathroom remodel - I think my wife has almost run out of patience with this project.
