Speaker placement
Although Audioengine speakers are very forgiving with regards to where
you place them, it's true
that proper speaker location can have an impact
on sound quality.
Even though there are different theories on correct
speaker placement, rooms and tastes are different
so it's difficult to
recommend a perfect setup. We do suggest you feel free to experiment to
see what works for you.
As a general rule of thumb for the best soundstage and imaging, tweeters
should
be at about eye-level in your most frequent listening location.
Here are a few more suggestions, assuming you have some flexibility
regarding placement.
No need for concern if your listening space dictates
the speakers' position.
Both speakers should
be equal distance from your primary listening
position.
Placing the speakers at least
4-6 feet apart usually provides the best
imaging and soundstage.
If you need to turn the speakers on their sides, position the tweeters
toward the outside.
If used on a desktop for computer
or multimedia speakers, the more solid
the surface, the better your speakers will sound!
