Owner's Manual

Speaker Placement
Achieve maximum performance and optimal sound quality from
your
ELAC Reference speakers with
proper
speaker
placement
and set-up. While
not
all rooms are
the
same, use
the
following
guidelines
to
configure
the
speakers for
your
particular room. There are
no
"exact"
rules
or
boundaries in setting
up
your
speakers
but
the
following suggestions will
help
optimize
your
desired results. Remember
the
best
sound set-up
is
what
sounds
best
for you so
don't
be
afraid
to
experiment
and make adjustments
to
the
placement
and directivity
of
the
speakers.
FIG
. 1
I
Place
the
speakers approximately
one
to
two
feet
away
(fig.
1)
from boundaries such as wall(s) and especially
corners. Close proximity
to
a side
or
rear wall will
enhance
bass performance (output),
but
being
too
close
(particularly
to
a corner)
may
result in bass
that
is unnatural.
If
a
corner
location
is
unavoidable,
try
to
position
the
loudspeaker
so
that
the
distance
to
the
rear wall is
not
equal
to
the
distance
to
the
side wall.
