Distant from front wall


Hi,
When a reviewer said that he/she places the speakers four feet from the front wall, is that from the tweeters or the back of the speakers? Thanks in advance.

In regards to distance from the wall, I have had very good soundstaging resulting from using a fibanachi (sp?) ratio to calculate the distance (i.e. 1/3, 1/5, 1/7th, etc. of the room dimension). Happy Listening,
You are right. I stand corrected. I had assumed that the odd ratio's of 1/3 and 1/5 (Fibonacci numbers) would naturally progress to 1/7 and 1/9, which they do not. The next would be 1/8, according to the link supplied. I am using the 1/5 ratio, at present, in my listening room.
