speaker location. Stand between the two tape marks. Using the same
procedure as above, begin moving into the room toward the opposite
sidewall, progressing between the two pieces of tape. As above, listen
for the point in the room where your voice transitions from bass-heavy
and diffuse to neutral. Mark this point with tape. Continue your progres-
sion until there is an obvious interaction with the opposite wall in front
of you and mark this point with tape. The four pieces of tape now form a
rectangle that establishes the Zone of Neutrality for the loudspeaker lo-
cated on that side of the room. Using the four marks as your guide, tape
an outline to define the boundaries of the rectangle.
6. Repeat this process for each speaker location individually. These are
your Zones of Neutrality, one for each channel.
Theoretically, the Zone of Neutrality for any room runs like a path, parallel to the
walls all around the room. Adjacent to very large windows and open doors, the outer
edge of the Zone of Neutrality moves closer to the wall and becomes wider. If you
were to extend the inner and outer boundaries of the Zone for the sidewalls and the
front wall (behind the speakers), they would intersect. After you complete this proce-
dure for the other loudspeaker, you will now have two rectangles, one on the floor on
either side of the room.
Zone of Neutrality: WATCH Surround Channels
The Zone of Neutrality is the speaker location where your speakers sound most
natural and interact the least with the room. We realize that the location of your on-
wall speakers is not very flexible. Nevertheless, careful selection of the mounting loca-
tion will improve the performance of the speakers. To find the Zone of Neutality, do as
follows:
1. Stand on a chair against the wall in the general location where you would
like to place the speakers. Speaking in a moderately loud voice and at a
constant volume, project your voice out into the room.
