Hi Wayne,

Can I get the 4Pi plans?

I also had a question about speaker height. I plan to use the 4Pis against the front wall around 3' from the corners. Most of the pictures I see have the 4Pis sitting on the ground which would place the tweeter center about 21" above the floor. Would there be a problem with using a 14" stand with the 4Pis to get the tweeter height closer to ear level? Would tilting the speakers be a better option?

Thanks,
Darrell

Actually, I think most people run four π speakers on stands about that height - 12" to 15", with maybe a 3° to 5° tilt back. This is the preferred method with flanking subs.

I've sent plans for the four π mains. If you don't already have subs to flank the mains, let me know and I'll send plans for those also.

Hi Wayne - Can you send me the Pi4 plans as well. I have a pair of 2226 that are begging to get used.

Thanks!
