Where To Place Your SPEAKERS
Placement can make all the difference in how your RUSSOUND speaker system sounds. There are at least three
“WHERE’s” and a “HOW” to factor into your layout:
HOW you intend to use your in-wall speakers
WHERE they’ll sound best (stereo imaging and acoustic considerations)
WHERE it’s possible to install them (wall and ceiling surfaces)
WHERE they can be installed that makes it easy to get wires to them without remodeling your entire house.
STEREO IMAGING
If your Russound In-wall Speakers are going to be your primary listening source in a room, you need to consider some
other factors to insure proper imaging. The term “stereo imaging” refers to a speaker system’s ability to project music
so that it sounds like the performers are in a 3-dimensional space between the speakers. It’s the whole point of having
a stereo instead of monophonic sound.
Russound In-wall speakers may be used for
rear surround sound channels by placing
them (1) behind, (2) on each side of the
viewing position or (3) in the ceiling just
behind the viewers. The SP550.2 &
SP650.1 speakers also make excellent,
unobtrusive front channel home theater
speakers for 5 channel listening.
