How
to place speakers in Home Theater Systems
HiFi
When placing your speakers, start from your listening position.
Place your speakers well apart and well away from the sidewalls.
The basic rule of speaker positioning is the triangle. The distance
from you to each speaker should be more than the distance between
the speakers. This will give a good sonic picture.
By toeing-in your speakers (angling them toward the listening position)
you often improve the stereo image. Experiment with position to
get the best results.
If you use floorstanding speakers they will be in the height of
your head when sitting in your listening position. If you use smaller
speakers, you will need speakerstands to get to the right height.
If you plan to place your speakers in a bookshelf, make sure that
the speaker’s don’t have a bass reflex port on the rear.
If they do they will not play very well in the shelf. Speakers need
space to work well.
