I originally place them about 3' from each end of my couch and realized that the "sweet spot" was my kitchen

My only criticism is that these speakers are very directional as a result of their design, and it can be difficult to find the listening "sweet spot".A clue about Behringer stuff:A design technique they use is electronic power cutoffs to eliminate noise from low amplitude signals

These sound great and have a wide sweet spot as well

The listening sweet spot isn't huge, and if they were a mirrored pair, and came with a better cable that is used to connect to the other speaker, they would get 5 stars
