SPEAKER PLACEMENT

Distributed Audio Placement (Mono signal)

All Sonance Symphony TR- and TSQ-series speaker models have very smooth and

predictable off-axis response, so they provide excellent coverage in distributed

audio systems from a wide variety of installation locations. The char t in

Figure 1

shows how far apar t the speakers can be placed at different ceiling heights while

still providing good coverage (as shown in

Figure 2). The distances are based on

ear heights of 62” for standing listeners and 40” for seated listeners.

Home Theater Speaker Placement

• Place the left, center and right speakers from 1 foot to 2 feet in front of the

video screen, anywhere from 6 feet to 10 feet apar t, with the center channel

speaker as close to midway between the left and right speakers as possible.

• The main listening position should be between 4 and 10 feet away from the

speakers.
