Best placement of Speakers


I have a pair of VR5SE my room size is 13 X 17, and a 8.5 ceiling, for speakers of this size which is best for placement to get the best sound. the short wall or long wall

I found best placement using WASP technique. This techniqe yields the most functional placement. The CARDAS method did not work at all for me - so becareful.

Short wall set out as far as practical from the wall behind them. This is the best chance of reducing room effects and increasing soundstage depth.
A good start will be on the short wall - the front of the speakers 3 feet out into the room and 5 feet apart (4 feet from side walls). Listening position should be 5 feet from the back wall behind your head and 5 feet in front of speakers. This configuration will be the best compromise and, as you probably already know, a bigger room would let these speakers blossom further.
