Follow the your speaker mfg recommendations on this. At the very least get your self a laser and make sure both speakers have the same rake. You could also just make sure the tops of both speakers is perfectly level.

Thanks for clearing up the terminology. I had never heard that term.
My 803's are on spikes 1.5" from the floor and I DID use a laser making sure both speakers are equal. The spikes are on brass discs protecting the carpet.
I noticed on Bob's website there are speakers that are on pedestals.
I am assuming that the rake of the speaker is temperamental as is speaker placement and toe in, therefore experimenting and patience is part of the formula. Finding the correct angle has no formula.
