Speaker installation
« on: January 11, 2026, 11:23:45 am »
Hello,

I have a question: do the speakers always have to be installed under the marquee? Can they also be installed on the sides, left and right?

That depends more on your room, than anything else.

 sounds going left and right ...will bounce off nearby walls, objects.. etc.
That can effect how things sound.

 Test your speakers in the place / positions where you intend to put your cab,
to get a rough idea.

 Another test to try.. is mounting speakers upwards, on top of the cabinet, towards the ceiling.. with
a slight internal angle towards left/right.
