Perfect Speaker Placement - Put next to the back wall as much as possible.


Hello,

I happen to find an good article about the ideal speaker placement. 
(Easiest version without numbers & formulas that I can’t honestly understand :D)

I’d like to share. 

Personally I find two things interesting.

1) Only use 40% of the room area (38% rule)

2) Put the speaker as close as possible to the back-wall (next to bass trap)

Of course, minor adjustment would be required depending on speakers.
Still, I think this is helpful to figure out the very first step.

 But now rightfully embed my speakers make them not interesting, not natural, each one headphone has his own peculiar limitation...Compared to them my speakers has not these limitations anymore...

If all of you were in the same room conversing face to face, would you be speaking to each other the way you are writing to each other from afar?
