The speaker system allows for an extensive amount of
settings that are user-friendly. While the quality of the
speaker system is superb it may fall prey to some of the
quality reducing issues all speakers encounter. It’s important
to know that the dimensions and construction of your home
as well as your home furnishings will all play a role in the
quality of the speaker system. The extra steps taken to
correct the positioning of the speaker system will ultimately
result in a better sound and clarity coming from the speaker
system.
Anywhere from mid to high frequencies are affected by
amount’s of plush materials in a room. Some of the most
common types of material’s include carpets, sofas, beds,
and soft curtains. Too much of these materials can result
in a sound that is low and dull to the user. Just as there
can be too much of this material, there can also be too little
of the material which can result in an uncomfortably bright
sound quality for the user. So with both in mind, a stable
amount of soft furnishings must be achieved to receive the
best quality sound coming from the speaker system.
Equalities between a room’s height, width, and length can
also prove to be an issue in the quality of the speaker
system for it will produce low frequency standing wave
problems, which means the clarity of the system will not be
up to par. If no other rooms provide a better solution to
this problem then experiment with different placement of
the speakers to reduce these negative effects.

Speaker Placement
The speakers should be placed within a 1.5 meter and 3
meters apart. You should position your speakers so that
each one is at least 0.5 meter away from any bare wall.
