Hi guys,
I just bought a pair of supposedly kick-ass Adam A8X amplified studio monitors for my relatively large living-room.
As I find their sound very disappointing with songs that I usually love, I allow myself to consult the community.
What would be your hints for a step-by-step acoustic improvement, provided that the possible adjustments are:
- The 3 "screws" at the back of each speaker (high shelf, low shelf, tweeter level)
- The distance/position of the speakers in relation to the room walls and corners
- The equalizer on the computer
- Any physical acoustic modules I could add
- Any software you may think of
- Anything else I may have forgotten
As you can see on the pictures, the speakers are placed in a slightly narrower part of the room (3.5 meters wide at this point, 12 ft) and the rest of the room is about 5 m x 10 m (17 ft x 33 ft)
Thanks a million in advance
Ant
