Definitive Technology BP2004 Speaker Placement

[AudioBuffCO]

I have the following Definitive Technology speakers:

Front L & R: BP2004

Center: C/L/R 500

Side Surrounds: BP-2X

Rear Surrounds: BP10B

Had the PF 15TL+ sub, but the amp died. My front L & R speakers, the BP2004 have 10” 125w built-in powered woofers. They are on either side of a huge, solid pine wall unit. They are about 18” from the back wall, 10” from the side wall and 10” from the pine wall unit. Is this enough space? If not, other than suggesting I get rid of the wall unit, any recommendations? Should I swap places with the BP10s? Also, since I do not currently have a sub, should I have my main speakers set to Large and the rest to small?

Thanks, Tom

If its just an amp problem with the sub you can add an amp fairly easily but I'd stick to large setting without a sub in play. Got pics?

I'd pull the speakers out in the room some more and away from the walls a bit more if possible, put the center on top of the table (putting the tv on a riser) and bring it forward some (or even put it on a separate stand in front of the table); that couch/chair on the right could be blocking the right somewhat.

Very much appreciate the input. But, nothing is going to move except possibly swapping the BP2004s for BP10s.

Apologies if that came off as rude...not at all my intention. :O)

Didn't take it that way, most rooms have more than one purpose Swap 'em, see if you prefer it.

 

[AudioBuffCO]

Think I will - nothing to lose.

So, set JUST the front L & R to Large and the rest to small?

I'd set them all to large myself unless they make bad sounds down low or something....and setting small without a sub may or may not even do anything...
