Speaker Placement and
Installation
The Rosebud MK II speakers can produce excellent sound in any location. Therefore, you should use these guidelines as a start- ing point and make minor adjustments to the height and position of the speakers and other objects in the room until you find the combination that sounds best to you.
As a general rule, the distance between the front plane of the speakers and the front wall of your listening room should be ap- proximately 20% of the total length of the room; the distance from each speaker to the closest side wall should be about 20% of the total width of the room. The dis- tance from the listener’s chair or couch to the wall behind the listener should be about the same as the distance between the speakers and the front wall.

tion. The front of each speaker should | Fig. 1 | |
be angled toward the listening position. | ||

Fig. 2– Place each speaker on a speaker stand, about 26 – 30 inches (about 65 to 72 centime- ters) above the floor. You should note that the optimum stand height is the one that places your ear/ seating height approximately 1” above the top edge of speaker.
