SST Models
Because a single SST speaker reproduces both stereo channels
from a single location, it will deliver outstanding performance
from a wide variety of mounting locations where a pair of stereo
speakers would be impractical, including hallways, bathrooms
and closets.
The table below shows how far apart SST speakers can be
spaced in distributed audio applications while still providing
good coverage for standing and seated listeners (see Figure 1 ).

Mount the left and right surround speakers on the ceiling 2 – 6
feet (0.6m – 1.8m) behind the listening position. The speakers
should be 6 – 10 feet (1.8m – 3m) apart. Orient the speakers so
the tweeters face the front and rear walls of the room. Use Figure
2 as a guide.

listening position. The surround back speakers should be closer
together than the left and right surround speakers, 3 – 6 feet
(0.9m – 1.8m) apart. Use Figure 3 as a guide.
