Placement of Creedos

Posted by: Jaybar on 28 November 2000

1) Can Creedo's be place well away from the back wall, up to about 60" lets say?

2) Can Creedos be placed near to the side walls (my room is only 12 feet wide)?

3) Can they use standard banna plugs and are the binding posts near the bottom?

I really prefer mine near a back wall, otherwise you start to lose some bass.

Mine are actually stuck in corners due to a
largish rack which separates them. It's not
optimal, bass gets a bit boomy at times. Toeing
them in a bit seems to help. I definitely need to
fix the furniture arrangement in the room. Or get
a new house

Yes and yes.

Hope that helps.

I have Credos (CDX/SCAP/2XPOWERAMP)in a small room (12' x 11'). My Credo's end up around 12" from the rear wall and around 18" from the side wall. There is still some boominess but it's not bad for an almost square room. I found that placing them very close to the back wall messed up imaging. I would also recommend that no toe in is the best for Credo's.

Standard banana plugs work fine and the input is in the external crossover near the bottom of the speaker.

Hope this helps.
