In Reply to: Oh, the rule of thirds or fifths is simply a starting position for speaker placement, instructions follow. posted by cfb on February 5, 2010 at 12:14:06:
I've heard of it, but never took the title 'rule' very seriously. Because it rarely seems to be a useful guide for most rooms and systems.
IME, it almost never works, unless the room is large enough. Who wants to sit five feet away from the speakers in a 15' long room?
The idea of uneven integers IS useful in smoothing out the bass. Guess I never thought the so-called 'rule of thirds' was particularly practical, and certainly not for a multi-use room.
Best regards,
