Irrational: not logical or reasonable, an action or opinion given through inadequate use of reason, emotional distress, or cognitive deficiency. It's still overpriced at 5k. I understand your passion but your opinion is still irrational and it is of no value to the OP as he does not think is overpriced. |

It's irrational to pay $100 for an apple. It's not irrational to think an apple is overpriced at $100 even if someone else will pay that. I'm not giving the OP's opinion. I'm giving mine. And in case you don't know, I think it's overpriced even at 5K. |

I don't recall anyone asking for yours. Does that mean no one should give an opinion unless asked for it here? Of course it doesn't. |

Hey guys Regarding toe in. What's the best way to judge how much is too much or too little? I think the best way is to simply experiment and see which sounds best to you, adjust them, then sit down and have a listen, then do it again, and again and again, I used a tape measure and measured both corners of the speaker against the wall so I could keep track and also make sure both speakers were the same, it can take a while and seem a bit OCD, but the end results are worth it. |

I agree with this methodology except that in my case my speakers have only one flat surface and rounded sides and back. Makes it a little more time consuming. Having a helper sure makes it happen faster and a second opinion never hurts. Just remember that your opinion is the one that counts most, you have to live with it.  |

True, I guess with the newer Studio 100's you would have to measure from the front corners. |

I can't do much about the speaker positions. I wish I could pull it out more, perhaps when the kids are grown bigger to understand how much daddy loves his sound/music and they shouldn't be playing around it. If I pull it out now, the kids might be bumping into them like crazy and the last thing I want is for it to tip over. No no no Jesus no!!!! I'll commit suicide  I'm just a little surprised that someone who was so adamant about a minor hiss/buzz from less than 1 foot away has his speakers positioned so sub-optimally. I understand about limitations due to little kids since I had 2 (now the younger one is almost 9 so it's ok), but I'm the opposite I guess. I can live w a little hiss but It would be tough to live with speakers positioned like that. So with all due respect regarding toe in, does it really matter? How do you expect to achieve optimal imaging? |

Hey guys Regarding toe in. What's the best way to judge how much is too much or too little? First you get them away from the back and side wall facing 90 with no toe in. Move them until it sounds best to you, cancellations, soundstage, boominess etc. Once you have the position down you start toeing them in step by step just as you did before when you positioned them. Some part is personal due to how narrow you want your sweet spot to be vs soundstage but you'll notice when you've gone too far. The sound sort of falls apart. That's how it is for me at least. |
