Sophia Series 2 in a Dedicated Home Theater
Home theaters can be organized many different ways. Some use rows of couches.
Others use rows of multiple chairs.
In addition to watching movies, most users want to listen to two-channel music at
the highest quality possible. It is desirable, therefore, to choose a single optimum seat-
ing position in a home theater and build the rest of the seating positions around this
position.
If your optimum position is located on a couch, you should center the loudspeak-
ers on the center position of the couch.
If the seating area consists of multiple rows of chairs, the second row should be
optimized for the best sound quality. Odd numbers of chairs arranged in rows work
best as this will allow a single chair to be positioned in the center. This approach will
also provide the best overall sound for the greatest number of seats.
Speaker Placement Versus Listening Position
The location of your listening position is as important as the careful setup of your
Wilson Audio Sophia Series 2 loudspeakers. The listening position should ideally be no
more than 1.1 to 1.25 times the distance between the tweeters on each speaker. There-
fore, in a long, rectangular room of 12’ x 18’, if the speaker tweeters are going to be 9’
apart, you should be sitting 9’11’’ to 11’3’’ from the speaker. This would be more than
halfway down the long axis of the room.
Many people place the speakers on one end and sit at the other end of the room.
This approach will not yield the finest sound. Carefully consider your listening posi-
tion. Our experience has shown that any listening position that places your head clos-
er than 14” from a room boundary will diminish the sonic results of your listening.
Decide where you want your favorite listening position to be. Please remember
