Speakers should be at least 2-3 feet away from the nearest wall (especially if your speaker is in a corner). Many speakers have rear-facing bass ports. Positioning a rear bass port too close to the wall will reflect sound waves, resulting in time smearing.

How do you place speakers in a small room?

For most speakers in a small room, unless they send out high frequencies from the rear of the speaker, placing the speakers as close to the front wall as possible gives the best results.

What is a small room for speakers?

In general, any room that is 15′ x 15′ or smaller would be considered a small room, at least in terms of one that you are putting a speaker system into. Usually in a room of that size, the listener will be less than 10 feet from the speakers and in many cases quite a bit closer.

Where do you put speakers in a square room?

If your room is rectangular, then the best place to put your speakers is on the long wall. If you have a square-shaped room, the best location for your speakers is diagonal to the corner of your choice.

How important is speaker placement?

While choosing quality components is important for any audiophile setup or home theater, speaker placement is equally important to the end result. The location and direction of your speakers will impact the musical image and timbre, as will the shape of the room and its contents.

Can small speakers sound as good as large?

The short answer is yes. Small speakers may have the advantage in size and cost (though not if you're going for a high-end new model), but bigger speakers outdo the smaller ones in performance. And in general, performance is what we all look for most in a speaker.

What is the best position for speakers?

For stereo music reproduction the ideal position is usually to place the speakers so that they form two corners of an equilateral triangle, the third corner being you the listener. This means for example; if the speakers are 3m apart from each other, they will also be 3m from your listening position.

Where do you put a single speaker?

Move your speakers at least 2-3 feet away from the nearest wall. This will minimize sound reflections, which can negatively impact playback clarity. Adjust speaker angle (toe-in). Angle your speakers inward so they're pointed towards the listener – more specifically, at a point directly behind the listener's head.

Should you toe in speakers?

Adjust speaker angle (toe-in). Angle your speakers inward so they're pointed towards the listener – more specifically, at a point directly behind the listener's head. If you want good sound across a wider listening area, then decrease toe-in.
