i'm having a BITCH of a time getting these monitors placed right....

if i run a 60hz tone in my room, i can walk around and feel null spots- and then peaks..
for example- they wall i look at behind my monitors HUGE peak- it freakin' rings so hard it shakes the window-

in the middle of the room DEAD

back wall half of the peak as the front wall.


so i'm looking at a position in the middle of back wall/ middle- but then i'm like almost 3 1/2 feet from my near fields (HS50's)
is this too far? i mean- the music i listened to sounded so much bigger- but then again- so little bass. very thin...i'm lost..

this was the spot where the 'happy' medium was between the nulls/peaks.
i'm to the point of thinking this room eq' software is flawed... maybe i need a better test mic.

maybe i should just trust my ears..glen...ethan? whats up.

ethan i've been reading your website religously and i still can't seem to overcome these nulls at 60 and 120-

help guys!
