Placement

SPEAKER
For
best performance place
the speakers equidistant from the computer.
Begin with
UCubes
aimed straight ahead and slowly turn them
in
towards
you
(also
known
as
toe-in).
Find
just the right
balance
of truly startling
focus
and
the width of the
overall
sound.
You'll
be
surprised to hear that sound
doesn't seem to come from the
UCubes
but from
all
around!
