Figure 2 Two-speaker Stereo Coverage – with 4 speakers

Figure 3 shows the same area as Figure 2, however the number of speakers has increased by 2. You can see a greater area of stereo coverage and this would also have a more even sound level across the listening area. This illustrates the fact that not using the maximum spacing allowed leads to improved sound quality.
