Room corners are difficult to cope with and you should try to keep the
location of the speakers as far away from corners as possible. Corners add low-
frequency reinforcement and can create severe problems in bass
frequencies, often accentuating bass response and making it inarticulate.
If bass response is inadequate, you may wish to move the speakers closer into
the corners (or rear wall) for reinforcement; however, as a rule of thumb,
always try to locate the speakers as far away from corners and walls as
possible. It is often difficult to balance bass response because it is within this
particular frequency spectrum where the listening room becomes a substantial
influence. When moving the speakers around, listen for sound that is cohesive
and evenly balanced across the audio spectrum. Use various types of program
material when determining sonic balance.
Additional advice on room acoustics and placement is contained on the next
page under the heading “Room Acoustics, Speaker Positioning and Tonal
Balance.”
