music. When these speakers are properly set up, you will have a sweet spot wide enough for you and your spouse. When you sway side to side while enjoying the music, the image and tonality of the system should also not waver.

When properly set up very little sound should appear to come directly from the speaker, instead, the sound stage should extend far beyond the left and right edge of the loudspeakers and they should have tremendous front to back depth. When the recording is close miked (when the instrument or performer is very close to the recording microphone) the music may appear to come directly from the loudspeaker. This is normal. Typically, however, the sound should appear to be detached from the loudspeakers.

A simple rule of thumb to follow is that focus will be achieved by placing the speakers closer together or farther apart, and front to back depth can be adjusted by the distance from the rear wall.

Further, as the system “breaks in”, the depth and width of the soundstage will increase and so will the “smoothness” of the sound.

There are no absolute rules concerning the speaker/room coupling, so do not be afraid to experiment with speaker placement for best results. Positioning the speakers within the room will significantly affect the quality of the bass. This is because of standing waves caused by bass modes in the room.

Hence, you should experiment with asymmetric positioning in the room. Do not have your speakers the same distance from the side and front walls – try putting them closer to the left or the right wall. If the speakers are equidistance from side and front wall, you may find strange suck-outs at some frequencies.

In some problematic rooms a resonance may develop at one or two frequencies that is unnatural to the music. By moving the speakers closer to the front/side wall or farther from the front/side wall, the resonance may be reduced at the listener’s position.

The amount of hard and soft surfaces in your room will also affect the tonal balance of your loudspeakers. For example, with lots of very hard surfaces such as marble or granite floors, large picture windows, and concrete walls, you may find that the room is very
