In Reply to: Cardas corresponding horizontal rule posted by Beluga on November 19, 2004 at 09:20:38:
"Panel or dipole speakers such as Apogees and Magnepans cancel their side waves, so a formula of .618 x the ceiling height can be used for determining placement from the rear wall. Most box speakers radiate low frequencies in all directions thus a formula that places the speaker to rear wall distance at 1.618 the side wall distance should be used.Speaker placement, simply stated
The distance from the center of the woofer face to the side walls is:
Room Width times .276 (RW x .276)The distance from the center of the woofer face to the wall behind the speaker is:
Room Width times .447 (RW x .447)This is all you need to know to place speakers in a symmetrical, rectangular room!"
**********************************************************
This seems to me to say that one should use the 0.276 times Room Width rule for distance to side wall for Maggies. Is there another rule that relates distance to rear (front of listener) wall to side wall spacing for Maggies?
