Speaker Placement

Listening Position
As shown in the illustration, the two speakers and your
listening position ideally form an isosceles triangle with
the edge lengths A and B. The distance A between the
Speakers should be smaller than the distance B between
the speakers and yours Listening position. Distance A
should be min. 2 meters (6.5 feet).
Position in your listening room:
Because of physical laws, a positioning of the speaker closer as 80 cm to a wall causes an
increase of the bass reproduction. So you should try to keep this as the minimum distance.
By changing this distance you can adjust the bass intensity.
Angling:
Depending on the orientation and angle of your speakers you can change the brilliance,
the depth of the stage and the room reproduction.
The installation of the speakers is authoritative for the resulting sound.
Experiment with different settings and let your hearing to judge!
An alignment of the speakers in parallel
heading to your listening position ensures gentler heights.
An angling of the speakers towards the listening position
provides present heights / more brilliance.
In many rooms, it is good to tilt the speakers backwards, i.e. turn the
front spikes far out and the back far into it. This may result in a
larger sound image with higher image.
In contrast, straight alignment of the speakers will cause that the
stage is more compact and more come to the forefront.
