A modest set up in Mumbai India. Room is rather small [200 sq. ft], hence 'big' speakers do not 'work'. Many changes have taken place.

I think all the speakers you used need at least 2.5 feet from the side wall to side baffle

masilu


I think if you get a better room (14*18 or 16*20 feet) you will need to listen to all equipments again. you know what i mean :)
