| Video Discription | START PLAY, RIGHT CLICK THE IMAGE, AND SELECT LOOP for continuous, looping playback. Use this test to adjust your STEREO speakers' separation, L/R toe-in (aiming), height, and up/down tilt, all for optimal, precisely focused imaging and sound stage width. Generally speaking, start with the front stereo speakers aimed directly at the main listening position, tweeters at or near ear height from your seated position, and forming an equilateral triangle with that position. Dolby considers this 60 degree "field of view" the widest allowed and 44 degrees is considered the narrowest. Keep in mind optimal results for a single listener may not be what's best for a group of two or more. I do not own the copyright to any of the material; it is a video graphics enhanced, version of re-sequenced material I've condensed from Chesky Records, JD37, prepared under the fair use doctrine for educational purposes only. I have not applied any audio processing other than trimming the test to a much more useful short sequence that can easily be looped. This makes it much easier to use for setting exact speaker placement than in its original, extended form. This was originally designed for placing stereo speakers but people using a derived center ch. may also find it of use too. Dolby Pro Logic II will interestingly place much of the "off-stage" material in the surround (rear) speakers [because it is largely out of phase content] however I do NOT advise using this test for adjusting the placement nor level of the surround speakers. This test is meant ONLY for optimizing the front sound stage presentation. This is how I was taught in a "Masters Class" by Sonus Faber and technicians from Sumiko (high end lines I carried). Listen to the following test video which shows three front speakers however it is actually a stereo test, which you can put into a perpetual loop by right clicking the video image and selecting "Loop". Get two people to help you and have each helper stand directly behind each speaker and based on your two hand gestures (they watch) they mimic you. Your two hands rotate as if you were screwing in invisible, ceiling light bulbs. The beauty of this is there is no talking to mess up your concentration and it seems to you as if you can magically aim the speakers by your hands! Cool. If you rotate your left hand clockwise the left side helper rotates the aim of the left speaker by the same number of degrees, or at least as closely as they can. Same for the right. is to get as focused a center image as possible by having the two helpers work in unison as if they are locked together, can't vary, and need to mirror each other. This is called toe-in.
