Choosing Where To Place The Speakers
Speaker placement within the listening room will have a great impact upon the total performance of TAD Compact Evolution One speaker
system in terms of bass performance, tonal accuracy, and imaging. All rooms are different and so this section is intended as a guide only.
Experimentation in your room will yield optimum results.
Begin by placing the rear of the speakers approximately one to two feet in from the front walls and the sides one to two feet in from the
side walls of your listening room, as shown in Figure 1. Your listening position should be roughly equal to the distance between the two
speakers. Also, turn the speakers inward so each axis points toward the listening position.
Next, connect the audio system as described in CONNECTING THE SPEAKERS on page 7. Then, optimize the speaker placement as
described in OPTIMIZING THE SYSTEM on page 11.
