Bookshelf speakers are simple to set up in most spaces. Traditional bookshelf speakers are wired, so you will want to consider proximity to your audio receiver and amplifier when placing them. However, you can also find wireless bookshelf speakers these days, which might be an easier choice if you want to spread out your home audio equipment.
Most often, both wired and Bluetooth bookshelf speakers will sit on — you guessed it — bookshelves, but you can naturally put them on other pieces of living room furniture as well. Wherever you choose, bookcase speakers should never be on the floor. Instead, they should always be at a raised height in order to create the best sound.
Typically, a pair of bookshelf speakers includes both tweeters for high sounds and woofers for low sounds. However, if you like a particularly strong bass in your music or if you are incorporating shelf speakers in a home theater audio setup, you may want to add a subwoofer as well. Adding a sub will enhance the depth of low-frequency sounds, providing a richer home audio experience.
