I was listening to some Los Lonely Boys last night, loving the guitar work and the harmony, when I noticed the drums. They sounded a lot like drums. Not in terms of slam or volume, I only have bookshelf speakers and have not yet replaced my subwoofer!
They sounded like drums in terms of space and scale. This was weird as they were panned fully across the soundstage. But then I realized that my speakers are placed about 7 feet apart while I sit 9 feet from them. My former set up had them 13 feet apart while I sat 9 feet away.
So in the apartment, the speakers are about drum width apart! And the drums sound pretty natural while the guitars sounded like they were played from little Pignose amps. I need to listen to Herbie Hancock The River tonight. The recording has the biggest piano sound (spatially) I have ever heard. I think JA complained a bit about it even.
I wonder what it will sound like through my squeezed speaker placement?
