5 Positioning
Our speakers do not impose special requirements neither in stereo nor in multichannel set-ups.
Nonetheless speaker positioning has influence on listening impression because every room is
individually designed and furnished. The following advices are just guidelines that ease proper
positioning. In addition we offer a measurement service to take advantage of the capabilities of your
listening environment.
5.1 Positioning near walls
When speakers are installed near walls sound quality is physically affected. Every customary speaker
behaves as a punctual sonic source in the low frequency range, with sonic waves spherical radiated
without any constructional measures. Back wall reflections are unavoidable.
The speakers RL 933K / RL 933K1 however utilize cardioid radiation characteristics with rearward
attenuation greater than 10 dB. Because of this structural measurement installation near walls is
considerably less critical. For optimum listening experience a minimum distance of 20 cm (7.9″) to
walls and furniture should be ensured. Avoid corner installations because unwanted bass accentuation
could arise.
