Figure 2 shows how this would work for a square area of 35 feet by 28 feet
and using stereo signals. Using our spacing rules as shown in Table 1, leads
to the need for four speakers. The loudspeaker coverage pattern is shown
in the diagram.
Figure 3 shows the same area as Figure 2, however the number of speakers has
increased by 2. You can see a greater area of stereo coverage and this would also
have a more even sound level across the listening area. This illustrates the fact that
not using the maximum spacing allowed leads to improved sound quality.
