The Sonance CR series speakers possess extremely smooth and

predictable off-axis frequency response. The chart below shows how

far apart the speakers can be placed in a distributed audio system. The

calculations are based on +/- 45 degrees of coverage from the

speaker, and listener ear heights of 62" for standing and 40" for

seated.
