Hi all, I've just moved to a new place and bought my first steamer and speakers.
Denon RCD-N9 CEOL and front ported Monitor Audio Bronze 2.
Absolutely love the tonality, the spaciousness of the sound, and that the tweeters are not too sharp - just the way I like them.
However I am slightly disappointed by the lack of bass punchiness, and if I'd boost the bass with equalisation it becomes boomy.
I think this might be solved by a better speaker placement.
Currently I've got them on the floor on yoga blocks while I was looking for speaker stands.
But I've recently noticed that Monitor Audio 200 towers are being sold for a great price as well.
The 200's got an extra mid-bass driver that might give more bass impact and solve the bass issue.
Again, the towers are back-ported and that absolutely monstrous metal heater at the back of the wall might resonate then.
I'd be happy to hear any ideas on how to improve the speaker placement?
And I plan to order the 200's to compare them to the 2's once I figure out where the speakers should be placed to sound better.
Thank you!
