Speaker Coverage Width Calculator

Distance (m): 10 Coverage angle (°): 90

Coverage width (m)
20.000000
Half-width (m)
10.000000

Width = 2 × distance × tan(angle / 2). Distance is measured perpendicular to the coverage plane along the speaker axis. This is a symmetric geometric footprint, not a prediction of sound level, frequency response or room coverage. Confirm manufacturer polar data and verify the installed system.

Methodology

How it works

Width = 2 × distance × tan(angle / 2). Distance is measured perpendicular to the coverage plane along the speaker axis. This is a symmetric geometric footprint, not a prediction of sound level, frequency response or room coverage. Confirm manufacturer polar data and verify the installed system.
