Loudspeaker Placement
Choosing the best location
When using any loudspeaker system certain room parameters will affect the resultant
sound quality and coverage. For example, any boundary like a wall or floor will lift certain
frequencies. If you are placing speakers in a corner, then a lift at the bass end is to be
expected and it may sound rather ‘boomy’. This can be compensated for by moving the
speaker or cutting low frequencies with an equaliser.
NuQ series speakers are designed to be flown in free space or mounted on specialist wall
and ceiling brackets. When speakers are flown in free space then boundary effects are
minimised. The result is a smooth frequency response without any boost at odd
frequencies, but the bass end may appear subjectively light. In this case increase the sub-
bass level to bring the low end up or add sub bass enclosures as necessary.
Dispersion
NuQ series enclosures are designed to provide respectably wide horizontal coverage;
NuQ-8 and NuQ-10 offer 100° and the NuQ-12 and NuQ-15 offer 80° of horizontal
dispersion respectively. This allows the majority of live sound applications to be covered
with single enclosures placed individually to take advantage of this performance feature,
for example either side of a stage in a pub, or small club environment, as shown here.
