OMD-28 FRONT SPEAKERS

For best stereo imaging, the left and right speakers should be the same distance from their respective sidewalls. If the distance from one speaker to the listener is very different from the other it can affect the soundstage or stereo imaging. Therefore, the ideal position is having the speakers equidistant to the listener.

When choosing the position for your new speakers, try to avoid walls with predominately glass surfaces, as they might not be the best choice for placement. If it is unavoidable to position the OMD-28s close to a glass wall or a large window, it may result in a hard sound with too much reflected information.

NOTE: DO NOT INSTALL THE FEET TO THE OMD-28 UNTIL YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE BREAK-IN AND FINE-TUNING PROCEDURES. REPOSITIONING THE SPEAKERS WITH THE FEET INSTALLED CAN BE VERY DIFFICULT AND COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE DAMAGE TO YOUR FLOORS.

A general guideline for speaker placement is to set up the space between speaker and listener at approximately 1.2 to 1.5 times the distance between the speakers. For example, if the speakers are ideally placed a minimum of 6-feet (1.8m) apart, the best seating position would be 7.2 to 9-feet (2.16 to 2.4m) away.

Start with the speakers slightly toed in towards the listening area, ideally 2-4 feet from the rear wall and 3-4 feet from the sidewalls, depending on the width of the listening room.

Do not attempt to fine-tune your audio system yet. This should only be done once the break-in procedure is finalized.
