Looking good :dance:

I love the fact that you aren't bothered about stereo effects. What do they sound like so close together? I ask because I have toyed with the idea as I want the sound to be as close as I can get to the same where ever you are in the room. Speakers together seems to make that more possible.

ime, the Cubes are usually happiest around 6 to 8 feet apart, with their backs within 45cms of a solid wall and toed in, to taste, for imaging.

YMMV, of course.

The speakers have had to be moved away from the wall due to the bass slightly swamping the higher freqs. They are now at a similar jaunty angle as before, firing at the open door to another room. At least 30cm from the wall.

@karatestu - The sound produced has always been detailed with the speakers near one another. I've yet to hear them spaced apart with the full stereo image. Maybe one day. At this time the room set up demands they be to the right hand side of the hi-fi rack. Which has worked out well because the speakers sound great close together.

NVA amps, speakers, interconnects & speaker cables produce the music.
