Loudspeaker Placement - REVELL Concerta IC65 Owner's Manual

LOUDSPEAKER PLACEMENT

The following general placement
suggestions are followed by diagrams for
recommended loudspeaker locations.
IW65 In-Wall Loudspeaker Placement -
2-Channel Stereo
Before installing the loudspeakers, survey
the listening area, keeping the following
points in mind and using Figure 3 as a
guide:
• Place the left and right loudspeakers
as close to the same distance from the
primary listening area as possible,
and also at an equal distance from the
side walls.
Ideally, the distance between the left
and right loudspeakers should be
slightly less than their distance from
the primary listening area. The
distance between the left and right
loudspeakers should also be the same
distance as from the loudspeakers to
the side walls.
• When installing in the wall, position
each speaker so that the tweeter is as
close to ear level as practical.
Note: Avoid placing the woofers at the
1/4, 1/2, or 3/4 wall height positions to
prevent low frequency cancellation.
•Refer to the following "Home
Theater" placement section if you also
plan to use the speakers in a home
theater system.

IW65 In-Wall Loudspeaker Placement -
Home Theater
Before installing the loudspeakers, survey
the listening area, keeping the following
points in mind and using Figures 4 & 5 as
guides:
• For front channel use, place one
speaker on the left and another on the
right along either side of the video
screen.
Left and right front loudspeakers
should be relatively close to the sides
of the video display. For example, left
and right loudspeakers used with a
50-inch video screen should generally
not be more than 80 inches apart.
• A center channel speaker should go
directly above or below the video
screen and can be an In-Wall,
in-ceiling, or freestanding center
channel.
• When installing in the wall, position
each speaker so that the tweeter is as
close to ear level as practical.
Note: Avoid placing the woofers at the
1/4, 1/2, or 3/4 wall height positions to
prevent low frequency cancellation.
