Curious if anyone does this outside of the studio engineers.
As it stands now, I have huge speakers... a good distance from the walls, on out into the room, and about 2.5 meters from the main listening position. I get a big huge sound stage. I think about how some studio engineers use smaller bookshelf speakers for playback during recordings. Consider how accurate some of those speakers are... such as the Genelec 8050B, 8030C, Neumann KH80, and several others that are powered... then there are the Revel M105 non-powered... all of which are extremely neutral.
How would these sound if placed nearfield in a room at about 1-2 meters from the listening position, on stands at ear level of course. Obviously a sub would be good with these, but would I still get that big huge sound stage with the speakers being so much smaller, yet they are much closer to me.
I know I could try it, but I'm more curious if others have done it and compared it to much larger speakers.
