1.3.3 Surface-mount loudspeaker placement

Determining where to place surface-mount loudspeakers is easy. Using your floor plan (which is drawn to scale),
draw 25 foot (7.5 m) spacing circles to determine loudspeaker placement.

Note: The surface-mount loudspeakers have a throw distance of 25 feet (8 m). For effective coverage only 80% of the
area need be covered. The spacing circles should just touch each other or overlap slightly.
Follow these simple rules when laying out the loudspeakers.
• The spacing circles can be drawn with a compass.
• Place a symbol on your floor plan identifying the location of the loudspeaker.
• Start in the corners, if possible, for maximum coverage and bass response.
• Because additions and/or cancellations occur from walls, do not space the loudspeaker equidistant from a side
wall and the ceiling. In other words, do not place the loudspeaker 3.5 feet (1 m) from the side wall and 3.5 feet
(1 m) from the ceiling.
• In a square room, place each loudspeaker slightly off center.
• The maximum height for the loudspeakers should be 12 feet (4 m) from the floor.
