A Master Class in speaker placement

It comes up again and again. Because it's important. An inch here and an inch there, it all makes a difference. And it's tough to get right.

A new level of high-end listening

Setting up your speakers is real work - concentration and patience paramount.

We've invited our Senior Manager for the Dynaudio Academy, Roland Hoffmann, to join us in the Ask the Expert studio to talk about speaker placement. It soon turned into a true Master Class, packed with tips, tricks and practical takes on real situations sent in from our Facebook fans.
