equilateral triangle VS seeing monitors

[Suez]

Hello.
I'm wondering about position of the studio monitors.
When you have to choose of seeing both monitors and don't be in equilateral triangle or don't seeing them, what you choose? I guess the listening here have to decide but anyway.
Thanks

When you saying 'not seeing them', do you mean having something in front of them (like a computer monitor)?

Either way is not ideal. But, I'd say having a slightly widened triangle (so isoceles) but having the path between you and the monitors unobstructed would be better.

"not seeing them" I meant exactly waht you wrote. It's due the limitation of space in my room that I can get this right and the LCD monitors are real issue here.

I went for the "seeing monitors"

Why not raise the monitors so that they shoot down over the top of the LCDs? I do this with my system and it works well for me.

.....

You really must have a direct and continous path from your tweeter/midwoofer to your ear.

Good advice.

Been there, also tried horizontal position. Don't like it.
I like when treble reproductor is as high as my ears. I can't stick to it perfectly as the stands don't let me. But this is like max 1-2 inches so I think it's torerable at least for my ears.
