Stereo Setup; Surround Setup - Adam P11A Operation Manual

3.3
The Stereo Triangle
If the loudspeaker is going to be used for stereo applications, the optimum
listening position should be located in the middle of a stereo triangle. This
means that your listening position will be located at the top of an imaginary
equilateral triangle and the two loudspeakers should be placed at the other
two points of this triangle.

3.4
Speaker positioning for multi-channel stereo purposes is ideally based on
a circle with speakers placed at 0° (Center), 30° (Front Right), 110° (Rear
Right), 250° (Rear Left), 330° (Front Left), with the listener being the circle's
center (Radius between 0.7-2.0 m). This ITU recommended configuration may
vary depending on the purpose of the control room (music or film). However,
it is recommended to create a symmetrical listening position with the front
side and surround speaker pointing to the listener's ear.
