LOUDSPEAKER PLACEMENT FOR S16
Loudspeaker fidelity depends on the following three factors: loudspeaker 
accuracy, loudspeaker placement and listening room acoustics. 
Advanced Revel design features allow the S16 to achieve exceptional 
acoustical precision, and the ability to seamlessly blend with other 
Revel Concerta2-series speakers in 5.1- and 7.1-channel systems.
PLACEMENT IN 5.1-CHANNEL SYSTEMS
The most common 5.1-channel home theater system configuration uses 
a pair of Concerta2 S16 surround loudspeakers, placed on the side 
walls above the listening area, as shown in the illustration below. The 
loudspeaker’s radiation pattern is optimized for use at 90 degrees to the 
sides of the primary listening area. This occurs when the loudspeakers 
are placed along the side walls, directly to the sides of the prime 
listening position (90 degrees to the prime listeners’ ears). The ideal 
height is located at 10 to 15 degrees above the prime listener’s ears.

PLACEMENT IN A 7.1-CHANNEL SYSTEM
7.1-Channel surround-sound controllers can independently drive two 
pairs of surround loudspeakers: a pair of Surround Left/Right speakers 
and a pair of Surround Back Left/Right speakers.
•  The recommended configuration is with the Surround Left and 
Surround Right S16 loudspeakers placed on the side walls as in a 
5.1-channel system, and the Surround Back Left and Surround Back 
Right S16 loudspeakers placed on the rear wall, as shown in the 
illustration below.
