Laser recommendation for Spkr set-up?


Curious what you guys are using to set-up your speakers other than a measuring tape, square and tape and any particular brand that works best?

thanks

Boys and Girls...this is not the way to use a laser to set up the speaker. You don't want to point the laser at the listening position. Here's how to do it:

First use a level and level your speakers. Turn your laser on and put it on top of one of the speakers. Get a postit (those yellow stickums) and place one of these at the back wall of your listening room, centered between the speakers. Slowly rotate the laser (the red dot will move on your back wall - behind your listening position. Make sure you keep the laser flat against the top of your speaker. Put a dot where the laser strikes the postit. You may have to raise or lower the postit to accomodate the laser dot. Put the laser on the other speaker and again swing the dot left/right, until it aligns with the black dot on the postit. If it doesn't align, you have to raise or lower the angle of one of the speakers. You will be amazed at the solid image your speakers are now able to provide. Enjoy.
