Figure 2
shows how this would work for a square area of 35 feet by 28 feet
and using stereo signals. Using our spacing rules as shown in
Table 1
, leads
to the need for four speakers. The loudspeaker coverage pattern is shown
in the diagram.
Figure 3
shows the same area as
Figure 2
, however the number of speakers has
increased by 2. You can see a greater area of stereo coverage and this would also
have a more even sound level across the listening area. This illustrates the fact that
not using the maximum spacing allowed leads to improved sound quality.
