5. OPTIMIZING SPEAKER PLACEMENT
The sound quality produced by your speakers can be enhanced by careful attention to their placement. While we understand that you may not redesign your room to accommodate your speakers, coming as close as possible to the ideal placement will give you much better sound.
The left, right and center channel speakers can be oriented either horizontally or vertically. All speakers can be angled with the optional
Three factors are important in getting the best sound. They are:
A.Height (or angle).
B.Location away from room walls or reflecting surfaces.
C.Separation between Left and Right speakers.
A. HEIGHT (OR ANGLE)
Your M&K speakers will always deliver sound superior to conventional speakers, regardless of where you locate them. However, because they are designed for very fast and accurate transient response, they achieve even better sound quality, and the flattest frequency response when properly oriented relative to your ear.
Ideally, the tweeters should be at the same height from the floor as your ears, when you are sitting in your main listening position.
If you have the speakers mounted above or below this height, they sound their best when you angle the speakers so that the tweeters are aimed at your ears when you are in the main listening position.
NOTE: When the speaker is mounted above the listeners’ heads, make certain that the tweeter on the front baffle is at the bottom.
