PLACEMENT

Klipsch-Forte-IV-McLaren-Edition-Loud-Speakers-Fig3

Your Klipsch Forte loudspeakers will perform well in a variety of locations but best results will be achieved using the following general guidelines:

  • Place on a common wall 6 to 15 feet apart.
  • Position them equidistant from the wall behind the speakers.
  • Angle speakers toward the listener and even with or forward of any adjacent obstructions.
  • Placing them near a corner or wall provides the greatest amount of bass while moving the speakers away from room boundaries reduces bass energy.
  • The Forte features a rear-firing 15” passive radiator that requires the loudspeaker to be placed at least 1” away from the back wall. For optimal low-bass performance, it is recommended the loudspeaker be placed within 2 to 10 inches off the back wall.
  • Asymmetrical placement of a pair of speakers from adjacent side walls can smooth room-induced bass unevenness.
  • Experiment with the above guidelines to suit your taste and to compensate for your room’s acoustic characteristics.
  • Self-stick rubber pads are supplied for attachment to the bottom of the riser for use on hard floors.
