Speaker Placement - ELAC CONCENTRO Operating/Safety Instructions Manual

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

Achieve maximum performance and optimal sound quality from your ELAC speakers with proper
speaker placement and set-up. While not all rooms are the same, use the following guidelines to con-
fi gure the speakers for your particular room.
There are no "exact" rules or boundaries in setting up your speakers but the following suggestions will
help optimize your desired results. Remember the best sound set-up is what sounds best for you so
don't be afraid to experiment and make adjustments to the placement and directivity of the speakers.
Place the speakers approximately one to two feet away (fi g. 1) from boundaries such as wall(s) and
especially corners. Close proximity to a side or rear wall will enhance bass performance (output), but
being too close (particularly to a corner) may result in bass that is unnatural. lf a corner location is
unavoidable, try to position the loudspeaker so that the distance to the rear wall is not equal to the
distance to the side wall.
