Always follow the rule of thumb as is shown in figure 1 (page 5)
1. Place your SmArt speakers equidistant from the TV/Projector screen.
2. Measure the distance between your Left and Right speakers (LR).
3. Measure the distance between your listening position and the middle point between your
Left and Right speakers (PM).
4. The difference in length of the above distances should be no more than 15%.
5. Angle your speakers inwards and towards the listeners. Find the optimum angle that pro
duces the best sound.
6. Adjust your speakers so that the tweeters are at about the same height as your ears when
sitting at the listening position - if possible.
7. To reinforce lower frequencies move the speakers towards the room boundaries. To reduce
lower frequencies do the opposite
8. Do not spread your speakers too far apart otherwise you get a hole in the center image.
9. Do not place your speakers too close together otherwise the sound stage collapses into a
fuzzy mono sound.
