Apogee stage manual speaker distance chart


Does anyone else but me not understand the chart that's in the apogee manual about speaker distance to the rear wall? I've scoured the net looking for someone as stupid as me but, alas, I have failed. Any help out there?

It all depends on your room. There are no pat answers for all situations. The nice thing about the stage is it is imminently movable. Just move them around, and play with the toe in until satisfied.

Apogee gives as a starting point 4 feet from the back wall, 7 to 8 feet between speakers, and at least 18" from the side walls.

This arrangement is for a symmetrical room of good size.
Whiznant, I use very thin speaker cables too. I will wager there is nothing better on the market for my application. For ICs I use Speltz. They can do it all, as my system attests to. I recently replaced a Blue Jeans digital cable from my transport to my DAC with a Speltz.
I had the Stages. I went on to the Duetta, and finalized with the Scintilla. It was with the last purchase where the magic midrange came back in.
