Shelf Desk
Posted September 10, 2009

In a shelf, how much room must speakers have to get good sound quality?
I am building a desk-top shelf unit at school which will fit my speakers. I hear you have to have the speakers a certain distance from the back of the shelf. What is the distance?
If the speakers are sealed or have a front firing port you can place them all the way up against the wall. If they are rear ported then place them at least 3" from the back wall. Ideally you would want a pair of stereo speakers to be placed equidistant from each other and the listener. In other words, the speakers and the listener should form a perfect imaginary triangle. The speakers should also be angled towards the listener's ears and with the tweeters(if any) at ear level. Whether the listener will be mostly seated or standing will determine ear level height. If you angle the speakers inward, just make sure to keep the rear port at least 3" away from any wall. Good luck.
