G SERIES LOUDSPEAKERS OWNER�S MANUAL

PLACEMENT

40 100 200 300 400 500

For the best stereo reproduction, the two loudspeaker systems should be placed an equal distance from your listening position and separated so that the angle between them, at the listening position, is between 40 and 60 degrees (see Fig. 1). For example, if your listening position is 8 to 12 feet (2.5 to 4 m) from each speaker, the two systems should be about 8 feet (2.5 m) apart. Placing the loudspeaker in a corner or against a wall will result in the strongest (but not necessarily the most accurate) bass. If possible, G models that are ported on the back should not be placed closer than 12 inches (305 mm) from the wall behind it. For the best stereo imaging, we recommend that the systems be placed so that the high frequency transduc-

ers are positioned approximately at ear level of a seated listener. That�s why smaller loudspeakers will bene�t from placement on stands or bookshelves. Every room is different and there are different tastes. So don�t hesitate to experiment on your own.
