Stereo set up
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.

Surround set up
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.
