I think I'm starting to learn a few things about my system at home and others I'm looking at getting.

What I've learned.....

My room need conditioning, but I'm not sure I want to go there. Here is why. If I sit close enough to the the Monitor Audio RS6 speakers I hear the high from the top of the speaker and lows from the bottom. Which frankly is a little irritating. It splits the sound up into plains for existence. But conversely sitting that close allows for great detail and the music totally engulfs me as a listener. If I sit far away the sounds appear to be on one plain but the sound stage becomes confused because of echos in the room.

But here's something else, I'm starting to think, that even in an echo-less room 3-way or more speakers will still present this issue if I am sitting too close.

Recently I was able to go to hear some high end speakers (designed by a physicist) and I heard the same thing. The bass was low to the ground and the highs were up high. The high highs and the low lows never seemed to be able to penetrate the plain they were mounted on. And I KNOW that a stand up bass only has one chamber at one position and that as the sounds go lower or higher the chamber doesn't magically move. anyways...

So what is my point? Not sure, just pointing out things I'm noticing as I listen to more speakers I guess.
