Well now that you mention it...... yes, if you could bring them out a couple more feet, me thinks your ears would be thankfull !

Updated some pictures and gear

It is also worth experimenting with the 'rake angle'. Anything from straight up or a very small backwards tilt will be better than 'stock'.

I have now updated to Spire and I am experimenting with angles and positions
I will post some pictures as soon as I can

Ooooooo! AQ K2's! Very nice! I am running Gibraltars at the moment and love them but I would love me some K2's if I could swing it!

I like the cable, but I think you get more bang for the buck by upgrading your amplifier.

Had 5 of those in my old apartment, they do pretty good job from somewhat under 100Hz up and don't over damp midrange voices.
