Loudspeaker Placement
Choosing the best location
When using any loudspeaker system certain room parameters will affect the resultant sound quality and coverage. For example, any boundary like a wall or floor will lift certain frequencies. If you are placing speakers in a corner, then a lift at the bass end is to be expected and it may sound rather ‘boomy’. This can be compensated for by moving the speaker or cutting low frequencies with an equaliser.
NuQ series speakers are designed to be flown in free space or mounted on specialist wall and ceiling brackets. When speakers are flown in free space then boundary effects are minimised. The result is a smooth frequency response without any boost at odd frequencies, but the bass end may appear subjectively light. In this case increase the sub- bass level to bring the low end up or add sub bass enclosures as necessary.
Dispersion
NuQ series enclosures are designed to provide respectably wide horizontal coverage;
