Note that repeated removal of the tweeter and waveguide may damage the wooden
cabinet. Only carry out this procedure when necessary. Do not use an electric
screwdriver to tighten the screws.
3.3 Loudspeaker Placement Advice
For two-channel stereo audio production, your head should be placed at one corner
of an equilateral triangle, with the two loudspeakers at the other two corners - see
diagram below.
The acoustical axis is the midpoint between
④
tweeter and
②
woofer in a two-way
system or
④
tweeter and
③
midrange driver in a three-way system.
Ensure that the acoustical axis of your loudspeakers points towards the listening
position in the horizontal plane - see diagram below.
The A8H comes in two versions: left and right. Usually, they are positioned according
to the naming (left picture below), however if space is limited, for example in a very
narrow room, it is OK to swap the loudspeakers (right picture below). When doing this
ensure that the acoustic axis is still positioned with a 60° spacing so that the stereo
imaging is unaffected.

Ensure that the acoustical axis of your loudspeakers is at the same height in the vertical
plane. The exception to this guideline is 3D systems where the height loudspeakers will
be positioned above the head.
The desktop reflection can affect the midrange response at the listening position, so
experiment with vertical positioning to reduce the effect.
If a loudspeaker is placed higher or lower than your ears, the cabinet should be tilted
accordingly, but ensure tilts can be achieved safely [see diagram below].
Never place objects between the loudspeaker and the listening position that obscure
the loudspeaker. It is not good for audio quality if you cannot see the loudspeaker!
For 5.1 / 7.1 and 3D systems the loudspeaker positions depend on the format. Refer
to the standardization body or manufacturer to find details on loudspeaker placement
accordingly, but note that the positioning advice given above still applies.
