Bookshelf Speakers for small spaces

Once you have purchased all the equipment it is time to set it up.  First place the speakers at locations 60 degrees apart from your listening position at the maximum possible distance.  Not too close to any walls or corners or these will cause a comb filter effect that will distort the sound.

Next locate the equipment as close to the speakers as possible to minimise the cable lengths and thus reduce the chance of the ingress of noise.  A rack is the traditional choice for equipment, but many clients are opting to hide their equipment in cupboards or cabinets. 

Ensure the gear has plenty of ventilation, if not - install a quiet computer fan or similar on a thermostat to ensure the long life of your equipment. 

If your interconnects have arrows on them, these indicate the end of the lead that has the earth attached -this end must be pointing towards the centre of your system - usually a preamplifier. 

If there is also an amplifier connected, the arrows would point AWAY from the amp towards the preamp.
