Whats wrong with my system
#7
Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

In regards to room placement.

The speakers are on the 4.8 meter wall.
The 75cm is to the rear of the speakers and the speakers are 2.10 meters apart.
They are 1.3 from the side walls... no toe in at all as recommended by Dali.

The walls are rendered and painted brick.
The floor is wooden boards on concrete with a large rug filling the space between speakers and listening position.

The listening position is mainly because in reading several documents on speakers vs listening position it seems a consensus that one third from the speaker wall brings the best balance.

On Monday and Tuesday i may have a little time to mess about with this which i haven't done for some time.

Sam at 100% is because with it turned down things get worse. It isn't about trying to maximize bass response.
The Dalis don't need help in that regard.


I have tried other sources but i don't really have anything that capable.
Only an Oppo 103 BD player. I have tried playing CDs from it feeding the Devialets via Optical and it is underwhelming.
It is the only thing i have tried though.

I don't think the speakers are out of phase but i will certainly try them the other way around since that is a very easy thing to do.

I have tried ROON both with and without DSP. When i say that i am not actually applying anything but just having DSP turned on even if set at flat. I read somewhere that would help but it doesn't seem to do anything very much.

Trying something like a Muon Pro is something i will do after playing with all the other things suggested.
I can't readily get a hold of that in Perth, Western Australia but there is probably something else i can.

I have been thinking about perhaps ditching ROON altogether and purchasing a digital transport that can feed the Devialets streams from both CD and files (if such a thing exists and is good quality) I don't need Tidal or Quobuz or anything else like them honestly. I think Moon do something of that nature.

Thank all for the input.

PS. I had a short listening session this evening but couldn't listen for more than about 25 minutes.
It became hard work and not at all enjoyable.
