In this informative video, Nathan discusses the many factors to consider when determining the optimal placement for your speakers.

If you’re looking to install commercial speakers and think there’s a rule of thumb of how many of them you need, you’d be disappointed. The reality is, a universal approach simply falls short here. This stems from the fact that the coverage of different speakers varies due to their unique conical shape.

Nathan explains what to consider, including:

• The dimensions of the room (length and width)
• Ceiling height
• Listener's elevation
• Spatial layout
• Intended usage, whether it's providing subtle background music, conveying general announcements, hosting live performances, or delivering prominent foreground audio
• Desired volume level
• Presence of areas where speaker installation isn't feasible

All of these factors play a pivotal role in the selection of suitable speakers and the determination of their optimal spacing to eliminate any dead zones.

Nathan explores each aspect, offering insightful guidance and even sharing calculations to assist you in making well-informed choices.
