The microphones SHOULD NOT be positioned:

✗along the perimeter of the listening positions or listening area

✗in spots where listeners’ heads will not be during listening

✗in an obstructed line-of-sight path with the loudspeakers

✗in a location obstructed by furniture and other fixtures

✗within 2 feet (0.61m) of loudspeakers and walls

✗more than 30 feet (9.14m) from any one loudspeaker

The listening room to the left shows improper microphone placement for the automatic calibration. The microphones are positioned along the perimeter of the listening area, making it difficult for the MC-12 to calibrate optimal results for actual listening positions. In addition, the microphones are positioned in obstructed locations on the floor.
