Raising the Quests?

[robertawillisjr]

Will raising my Quests about 2-4" do anything positive for the sound?

No! Why would you want to raise them as they are already 6 feet?

Maybe a better solution would be to have them angled more downward towards the listening position. That is what I do. I bought bigger spiked feet and have the back one positioned higher than the 2 front ones. I also put weights on the top of the woofer section to keep them stable and at the same time dampen even further the speaker. I bought some nice square weights that equal to 20 pounds and put a non-slip black mat under them to not scratch anything.

Was recently told that it would help integrating the woofer better.

Robert,

As long as the vertical center of the panel is reasonably close to your ear height in your listening chair, it should be fine.

Also, I'd recommend adjusting the rake angle of the panel to perpendicular, using different height spikes.

Actually lowering them is better. I did a rebuild on mine a while back and it was night and day !
