Speaker Placement
Speaker placement is often a compromise between optimum performance, personal
preference, and site requirements. The following guidelines will serve as a starting point to
help you decide where to place your X-Ref speakers to get the best sound. Remember that
the “best” location is the one that works best for you, with your music, in your home. We
suggest you read both of the following sections; advice about stereo speaker placement
also applies to multi-channel systems and vice versa.
Positioning your X-Ref Series speakers for stereo operation
The X-Ref Tower models are intended to stand directly on the oor (with the included bases
and carpet feet), and should not be placed on top of other objects, stands, or furniture.
The X-Ref Center/LCR Monitors, when used in stereo applications, should be placed
vertically and symmetrically (with both tweeters offset either towards or away from the
center). Ideally they should be mounted on stands, with the tweeter at approximately the
ear height of the listener. (When mounted vertically, the XRC’s should not be tilted forward
or backward.)
