Positioning them as shown in the bottom image will give more consistent results, though you will still need to treat the room accordingly. Moving around even slightly would create variable results, as the space is so small. Working the other way - across the room - would create a bass cancellation in the centre of the room, where you'll most likely be sitting. In a small room such as this, which is about twice as long as it is wide, it's usually best to position monitors of this size along the shortest wall. So, what would you recommend for a room of my size and dimensions? Also, are the BM6As too much for my room? In your books and in Sound On Sound, I've seen you advocate placing speakers on both the shortest wall, and the longest wall, depending on the room. The further forward I go with my head, the more bass I get the further back I go, the less bass I get. Also, this tends to differ a lot depending on whether I sit in the exact 'sweet spot' or not. I've now got them along the long wall, which I think sounds more balanced, even though there's still some resonance on certain notes. I've already tried to put the speakers backwards, but noticed no change.

So I am wondering how to position my Dynaudio BM6As? At first I put them along the short wall, but a lot of bass was built up, probably because of the proximity of the corners.

The isolation is great, but I'm now moving on to phase two - acoustics - and bass is a problem, especially on the notes of A, B‑flat and B, which are kind of booming.

I recently built my own home studio by converting an old garage into a well‑isolated music room of 410 x 215 x 275cm.
