Place each of your monitors at least 400 mm [16 inches] from the nearest
wall to minimize back reflections, which can adversely affect your chances
of accurately monitoring low-frequency information. If at all possible,
avoid placing loudspeakers near room corners for the same reason:
with two reflective surfaces in close proximity, the chances of unwanted
reflections affecting your low-frequency audio are even greater.
→ For stereo audio production, your ears should be placed as near as
pos
sible to one corner of an equilateral triangle, with the two speakers
at the other corners [see below].

Precise idealized placements of speakers for surround audio production
depend on the number of channels [and therefore speakers] you are
using, and whether your audio is being produced for musical or film use.
The International Telecommunication Union recommendations on
ideal
loudspeaker placement for a variety of audio formats and applications
can
be found in detail at their web site, www.itu.int. However, as general
guidance and in common with stereo placement, a symmetrical listening
position is recommended, with all speakers a] situated at least 400 mm
[16 inches] from the nearest wall to minimize back reflections, and b]
pointing as much as possible toward the listener‘s ears.
