The ACE870 speaker is designed for in-ceiling installation and features a 15-degree angled woofer and pivoting tweeter, making it ideal for LCR and surround sound applications, including Dolby Atmos setups. Consider the following for optimal sound:
- For LCR channels, position speakers in the front ceiling, angled towards the primary listening area.
- For surround or height channels, place speakers strategically to create an immersive sound field, following your amplifier's recommendations for Dolby Atmos or other surround formats.
- Ensure there are no obstructions (e.g., joists, pipes, electrical wires) in the ceiling cavity where you plan to install the speaker.
