Fingers crossed I’ll be moving in 3 months and there will be a room allocated for the Den / listening room
The room is quite long and narrow with a pitched roof. At one end of the room there is an open staircase. Length is 17’ 0” (5.18m) which I believe is the length excluding the staircase x 9’9 at the widest point (2.97m).
As there is no furniture for it yet, so I’m trying to get an idea on what may be the best layout speakers wise, and was wondering has anyone any experience of acoustics in a pitched roof type room? I would of course like to buy some furniture in advance and the room layout is likely to steer this.
Are the speakers likely to sound lot better firing down the room, or would they possibly be ok firing across the room into the sloping down ceiling?
Current system is Topping MX3 and headphones (i.e. no speakers)
System I’m aiming for will hopefully / eventually be a Quad Vena 2 Play (Streamer / Dac and 45W amp) and Acoustic Energy AE1’s or Stirling Broadcast LS3/5a’s
Yes there will be no vinyl
If anyone has any experience of this and a strong suggestion. i.e. probably best / almost certainly best / definitely best firing down the room / not sure - try both etc, please let me know.
Cheers
Keith
