I was studying about recording room acoustics. Can anyone help me with the following questions?

1) I read that I can reposition my speakers, while playing a commerical music, to find a speaker position with
the most smooth response. Does it mean "smooth frequency response?" What do I actually try to hear while I
reposition the speakers to find this "smooth response?"

2) I read "mounting the speakers on solid stands makes quite a difference, and hi-fi stands that you can fill
with dry sand also work well." Do I have to actually physically â€œmountâ€ the monitor on a stand, like with
screws?

3) And does anyone know how to make the stand or who sell them?

thanks in advance

make sure you have a great room for this, because all that work on speaker placement can totally be wasted on an echo-y room, one that gets alot of noise bleed from outside, and/or one that you dont like working in. i just work through headphones.

i would opt for on the wall placement over a stand. the mouting probably helps with low end fq and shaking
