Hi Friends,
On my new stereo system I observed something and hence confused whether it is normal or something wrong.
Center imaging for vocals is there, however this is what happens
When I move my face slightly off-center to right or left by 1-2 cms, i feel the vocals are more open and the sound is coming from front as usual. It sounds good.
However when I keep my face exactly at the center, i notice the quality of vocals has slightly decreased.
--> It sounds as if some frequency cancellation is happening and vocals are not very clear.
--> The brightness in vocals get reduced and i can feel some/little amount of warmth/bass has entered in the vocals.
--> The vocals feel as if we are hearing from a headphone, and don't sound as if they are coming from front. Not exact figures but around 50% from front and 50% inside the head.
In short, vocals are sounding better when face is slightyl off center.
