PLACEMENT

The distance between the loudspeakers depends on the possible

distance to the listening area. Between the loudspeakers there should

be slightly less space than between listening area and speakers.

Dynaudio recommends that the distance between the speakers 

be slightly less (closer together) than they are from the listening 

position, while the listening distance to each speaker should be 

identical from said listening position. 

The closer the listening position is in relation to the loudspeakers, the

closer the speakers can be positioned to each other, though as 

a starting point it is recommended that the speakers be about 

2.0 meters apart from each other for the best results. 

If the speakers are positioned too close to each other, the stereo

image will not seem realistic; if that distance is too wide, the image

may leave an acoustic hole in the middle. Paying attention to the

image during listening tests will help dictate optimum placement

during experimentation and set-up. A distance between the 

loudspeakers that is approximately 20%-30% closer together than the

distance to the listening position is a good starting point for such

experimentation during set-up.
