I am about 18" from the back wall and I know ideally I should be further out still but real world family room issues exist, and I believe I have them farther out than some can manage. The cables are Audioquest and were being used with the Rotel MK 1582 MKII, both speakers and interconnects. They are only a little over a year old. I may check with dealer and see if he thinks new or different would be in order, but doesn't seem like they should.
Thanks again for your input and advise...much appreciated!!

Have you considered the possibility that your new system is just more revealing? Gear of this quality and 10 to 15 yrs newer may be revealing more detail and the poor state (quality) of today's recordings.
