Listening chair height?


Many years ago I remember reading that ideally your ears should be at the same height as the tweeters.  Does this sound about right?

@onhwy61  , thank you!!

"Vertically, there is very little change in the speaker's sound as long as the listener is on or below the tweeter axis. Move above the tweeter axis, however, and a deep suckout appears at the crossover frequency (fig.6). As is so often the case, this is a speaker that should never be judged by a standing listener."

With a tall speaker your seat would have to be on a ladder!

I use quite tall Wilsons  - they solve this by having vernier adjustment of the forward rake angle of the module carrying the tweeter - you choose your listening chair and then use a laser pointer to align the top module at your head.  Solves that question, but not many speakers are that adjustable
