For permanent installation, it is recommended to fly high frequency loudspeakers for more even coverage. This also allows co-located low frequency enclosures in a single block, increasing sensitivity and providing more consistent bass coverage.

7.5. The applied aiming reduces unwanted reflections from the ceiling and directs the highest energy concentration to the audience area requiring it most. This is the most desirable position for the loudspeakers in this example. Figure 7.5: Correct loudspeaker placement Venu 210i User Guide V1.0 Page 19...

The shallow angle of attack will also induce refraction issues on a hot dance floor, leading to reduced HF penetration at mid and far distances, again reducing intelligibility and coherence. Figure 7.10: Incorrect loudspeaker placement Venu 210i User Guide V1.0 Page 21...
