Just now seeing this.
Hope this ends sooner verses later. I've not heard (or maybe paid attention?) to how long the symptoms last for someone before you're on the other side.
Perhaps a silver lining..... lots of listening time?? (is there any silver lining??)
Not yet

I thought about that. I did raise the assembly up above the top of the bass bins 1 1/2” then 3”. There seemed to be subtle differences, but no game changers. I will angle them at the listening position tomorrow. For now I will enjoy.
I hope you are able to enjoy some good tunes while you get better!
Sadly no. I can barely get out of my chair. As I heal I am planning on spending a lot of time listening to the AMTs. It will be nice to return someday to business as usual. All the things we take for granted......

I am seated pretty close to the center of the stack height. There is just a very “live” presence to vocals if I stand at the LP. Not to say there is anything wrong seated, far from it. I just need to keep experimenting. Glad to see you posting!
Not much else I can do.....

You can always experiment by raising the front or back of the wings in order to change the dispersion of the AMTs.

Mine are toed so that the center is aimed to just a couple inches from the center of my mlp, not crossed. Basically pointing at my ears, and when sitting down my ears are near the top of the wing assembly.
Haven't spent much time listening while standing, but it sounds really good while seated.
As you know, mine are slightly toed in and basically aimed at my ears, crossing just behind my LP. The stack height is centered at my LP ear height. I have not had any issues at the LP relative to height. Are your ears below or above the center of the stack?

South Korea and Europe. Definitely two hot spots. No clue on how I got it. I have been super careful, but that didn't seem to help. Just going through customs you have to touch a lot of stuff. At this point though everyone MUST be super careful now that it is spreading in the US. I'm very healthy and it has totally kicked my a$$. I can't imagine having other issues and then getting this. At the first sign of a fever, call your doc!

This really put me in a funk yesterday and today. It's been such an abstract event and relatively minor inconvenience in my sphere of experience, but it's really starting to hit close now. You've got our full support, even if only through prayer and messages of support. Hoping you get through this with minimal long-term effects bud.
Michael, thank you! For all the doubters, this is very real. PLEASE take care of yourselves and your families. Follow all the protocols to prevent infection. I cannot confirm I have it, but whatever I have I don't wish it upon my worst enemy. Fortunately, I am pretty healthy, eat well and don't have any underlying conditions. Keep tabs on your family's temperature. Keep Tylenol on hand for fever control and get yourself a pulse-ox monitor (little finger tester they use at doc office) in case anyone gets infected. That is how you will monitor your loved ones. If you can find a forehead thermometer, get one.
I take all the prayers I can get. I have an army of wonderful people pulling for me. All our neighbors and friends have been just amazing. I am so proud to be an American and see 'We The People" rise to the occasion. I'm hopeful I'll recover soon. As I told a friend, regardless of what happens....I WIN!
Sorry to get off topic, and now....back to our regularly scheduled program.

I should have posted this morning about yesterdays activities with the double stack/wing setup, but it was nice here today so I decided to fire up the mower. Since my schedule has been cleared I decided to trim, pick some weeds, rake some leaves and plug aerate as well. Why not. I listened Friday night to my basic no correction crossover at 400hz and reported that is was very promising. (I originally posted that it was 500hz, I changed it to 400hz along the way and never changed to the title. I will go back and edit that post). Fast forward to yesterday morning. I received a PM from @Chris A asking if I would like a hand optimizing the MiniDSP. After a few emails back and forth over the course of the day Chris was able to crank out an awesome DSP file. I am so grateful to Chris for his help. It would have taken me months of trial and error to get even slightly close to what he created yesterday. Chris is a wealth of knowledge we are lucky to be able to tap on this forum. I was really considering going to the SWAG event just to be able to pick his brain in real time. I pick things up better in a hands on environment.
Below is the original SPL graph of the 400hz no correction crossover.
Below is the comparison between the first raw measurement and Chris's work. Just awesome!
I need to do much more listening, but each improvement Chris made to the crossover file made huge improvements to the sound in my room. It is really interesting as he changed the PEQ's and delay etc. the imaging, clarity and balance continued to improve. I am really blown away at how great this setup sounds. If anyone is on the fence about trying this, just jump, it is so worth it. Now I need to take these apart at some point and veneer them to match the bass cabs, probably wont be any time soon. I will reply later with some of the usual audiophile language, but for now I am just going to listen.
No crap, the big panels are roxul and the small ones are roxul and ultratouch denim. They are DIY. However, that is another project @Chris A helped me with. I owe the great sound in my room largely in part to Chris. I really cant thank Chris enough.
Yep, Chris knows his stuff and I too am extremely grateful for his unending help with my setup. I am glad to hear you have it nearly dialed in. The sound is just breathtaking! I am really glad you guys are having the same experience I did. Otherwise, I'd feel pretty foolish!
