PLACEMENT
1. DISTANCE BETWEEN THE LOUDSPEAKERS
The distance between the loudspeakers depends on the possible
distance to the listening area. Between the loudspeakers there should
be slightly less space than between listening area and speakers.
Dynaudio recommends that the distance between the speakers
be slightly less (closer together) than they are from the listening
position, while the listening distance to each speaker should be
identical from said listening position.
The closer the listening position is in relation to the loudspeakers, the
closer the speakers can be positioned to each other, though as
a starting point it is recommended that the speakers be about
2.0 meters apart from each other for the best results.
If the speakers are positioned too close to each other, the stereo
image will not seem realistic; if that distance is too wide, the image
may leave an acoustic hole in the middle. Paying attention to the
image during listening tests will help dictate optimum placement
during experimentation and set-up. A distance between the
loudspeakers that is approximately 20%-30% closer together than the
distance to the listening position is a good starting point for such
experimentation during set-up.
