Figure 6: Listening angle vertical
An easy method to do this involves the tape
measure and string. With the tape measure, check
to see that the speakers are not placed further
away than 2 meters for the best response.
1. Once you have initially placed the speak-
ers, take the string holding one end at the
speaker’s acoustic axis and stretch it out to the
listening position.
2. Mark this point with a marker.
3. Do this again for the other speaker to
ensure that they are both the exact same
distance from the listener.
4. Use the string to measure the distance
between each speaker. This should also be
the same, forming and equilateral triangle
between the two speakers and the listener.
5. Make adjustments as necessary to place
the listener and speakers at the same distance
from each other
Vertical angle
The vertical angle of the speakers should orient the loudspeaker directly toward the listener’s
ear level. If the speaker is placed higher than the listener, they should be angled downward.
Conversely, if the speaker is below the listener’s ear level, they can be angled upward to point
at the ear as shown in Figure 6.
