The first thing to consider when looking for the optimal spots for your speakers is the room.
Speaker placement in small room.
These speaker placement guidelines can give you a renewed sense of realism and detail that may have been hidden in your room.
Put most speakers close to walls and you end up with a boomy shut in sound put them near the corners and this gets even more pronounced.
Many stands also help absorb reverberations and prevent the inclusion of noise.
Placement near a corner where three room boundaries come together will get you even more.
Most people put their sub in the front of the room so that it s easier to connect it to their home theater receiver.
Stay away from corners.
Note a few characteristics of the room.
For most speakers in a small room unless they send out high frequencies from the rear of the speaker placing the speakers as close to the front wall as possible gives the best results.
In particular there are ways in which a good pair of speakers can become a great pair of speakers just by taking the time to place them properly in the room.
Taking a simple rectangular room allows us to illustrate these strategies as shown here.
If running a cable to where your sub sounds the best is impractical use a wireless subwoofer kit.
It is the most influential factor when it comes to sound quality after the speakers themselves.
