Specific distances are needed to calculate reflection times.
Room Acoustics and Speaker Placement
Hey guys,
I’m moving to a new condo next month. It’s going to be a living room setup and I have two options:
1) speakers will be positioned such that it will only have 1 side wall. The other side will be open (dining area).
2) speakers will have both side walls (not equidistant) but no rear wall (my back will be towards the dining area).
I know that neither setup is ideal but if you were to pick one, which one would it be and why?
let me know if you need more info. Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

@hilde45 the wall itself must be around 12 feet. So I could position the speakers potentially 3 feet away from the right side wall leaving about 6 feet between the speakers. And for what’s it worth, the distance from the left side wall (basically entrance of the apartment) should be about 7-8 feet. So more distance to the left side wall as compared to the right side. Hope this helps! |
@dcp20124 Thanks. The critical things to know are the distance from speaker to listener, the distance from speaker to side wall to listener. You mention "the wall" but I don't know what that means. A diagram would help.
