SPEAKER
SETTING UP YOUR PRIME SPEAKERS
Room Placement:
Toeing-in the loudspeakers 5-10 degrees can often improve imaging, however this is also a
function of the distance from nearby boundaries and the ratio of direct-to-reflected sound, so
experimentation with toe-in is recommended to obtain optimal results.
The location of the front loudspeakers relative to nearby boundaries will excite various room
modes (a complex pattern of standing waves with associated peaks and nulls), which will affect
the bass response of the loudspeakers.
Generally, placing the loudspeakers closer to room boundaries (particularly corners) will increase
the bass response. Conversely, moving the loudspeakers away from boundaries and corners will
reduce the bass response. Due to the complex interaction of the loudspeakers with nearby
boundaries/corners and your listening position, significant changes to the bass response can
occur with very small changes in either loudspeaker location or listening position, so experimenta-
tion with both placement and listening position is recommended to obtain optimal results.
Please contact the SVS Sound Experts if you have any questions or concerns about placement of
your Prime Pinnacle speakers.
