Hi Wayne and Audioroundtable,
Now that I'm almost finished construction on my 4Pi pair, I looking to build a pair of stands to raise them off of the floor. Since my average ear height will be 30" to 44" off the ground (sometimes sitting on the floor or couch), what is a recommended stand height for 4Pis? I did a search, and came across this thread: http://audioroundtable.com/forum/index.php?t=msg&goto=62083&&srch=4pi+stands#msg_62083
Is there a specific reason for the 7 degree upward tilt? Is it due to the 40 degree vertical dispersion of the H290? If possible, without losing anything, I'd like to keep the speakers on a 0 degree tilt due to the fact that they will each be sitting right next to a F20 sub (a 15" front loaded horn in a cabinet that is 5' high). I dont mind building the stands higher than 12". With the average ear height of 30"-44" and a listening distance of 8' to 12', what would be the recommended stand height for the 4Pis if there was no tilt? Thanks for all of your help!
Cheers,
Joel
