I am making some household movements in preparation for my new speakers, which forces me to ask a question.
Is there a formula to how far apart front left and right speakers should be?
I seem to recall a website stating that the distance of the two speakers (L/R) should be approx the distance you are from the screen.
So, given that I am 3.2 metres away from my screen, I can assume that they should be 3.2 metres apart with the centre smack bang in the middle, thus forming an equidistant triangle to me.....which should also allow for some excellent front panning effects. (i.e motorbike scene on blade 2)
whaddya all think?
I realise that there are no hard and fast rules but all advice helps , especially from you guys.
Thanks in advance.
