Speaker Placement in the Room

Russound's Architectural Series Speakers are designed to provide full sounding dispersion even in suboptimal positions away from the targeted primary axis, so that listeners throughout the room are treated to full, rich audio reproduction. For each room, think about what kind of listening will be most often occurring there. In a Great Room, living room, or bedroom, the ideal speaker placement will result in smooth, even coverage throughout the room. In a Home Theater set-up, you want the speakers to be equidistant from the prime listening position in order for the breadth and depth of the audio to feel like a movie theater's surround sound system.

For TV, movie, and music usage, ceiling speakers should be placed directly to the sides or behind the prime listening position and aimed toward the listener. If the prime purpose of the surround system is to listen to music, the in-ceiling speakers should be aimed at the prime listening position. Any in-ceiling speakers used for rear surround sound channels should be placed just behind the viewers.

Your speaker's low frequency bass reproduction is "helped" when ceiling speakers are placed close to a wall or ceiling. This is known as the boundary effect. Each nearby surface helps to amplify the perceived sound output. Better audio performance will result if both speakers are placed in similar positions and face a similar type of surface. For example, avoid placing one speaker in a corner and another on a long flat surface.

Below are some examples for in-ceiling placement options:

• Good placement for serious listening: Stereo pair In-ceiling. 6' to 8' (1.8m-2.4m) apart, on the long wall of a rectangular room, centered on the listening area.
• Good placement for background listening: Stereo pair behind, above or to the sides of the main listening area. 6' to 8' (1.8m-2.4m) apart, centered on the listening area.
