An old thread …
your recommendations for placement and toe in for the ME1?
speaker placement has no rule, forget what you read in manuals or cardas golden ratio speaker placement or any triangle speaker setup. all are useless.
you should try and try and try and find a place to have best bass/dynamics and open midrange.
finding best soundstage is not important and you should care about maximum dynamics.
I think TAD ME1 is good for rooms smaller than 40 square meter and side wall can help to have enough bass .
