Speaker Positioning
Adjustment of speaker position following initial installation
will probably further improve the sound quality and is usually
worthwhile.
In either stereo or home theatre installations, try to ensure
that the immediate surroundings of each speaker are similar
in acoustic character. For example, if one speaker is adjacent
to bare walls while the other is adjacent to soft furnishings
and curtains, both the overall sound quality and the stereo
image are likely to be compromised.
Conventional Stereo Systems
To begin with, the speakers should be positioned between
1.5m and 3m apart at two corners of an equilateral triangle
completed by the listening area at the third corner. The
speakers should be approximately 0.5m away from the back
wall, and at least 0.5m away from any side walls (above).

Home Theatre Systems
If the speakers are to be used for the front channels in a
home theatre system, they should be placed closer together
than for 2-channel audio, because the surround channels
tend to widen the image. Positioning the speakers within
approximately 0.5m of the sides of the screen will also help
keep the sound image in scale with the visual image. As with
conventional stereo positioning, the speakers should ideally
be at least 0.5m away from any side walls. If the speakers
are preferred placed against the back wall and this location
results in over emphasized bass, see the Fine Tuning section
of this manual for information on using the foam plugs.
Stray Magnetic Fields
The speaker drive units create stray magnetic fields
that extend beyond the boundaries of the cabinet. We
recommend you keep magnetically sensitive articles (CRT
television and computer screens, computer discs, audio and
video tapes, swipe cards and the like) at least 0.5m from the
speaker. LCD, OLED and plasma screens are not affected by
magnetic fields.
