In this paper we model and solve the problem of shaping and placing in an optimal way sensors for a wave equation with constant damping in a bounded open connected subset $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Sensors are modeled by subdomains of $\Omega$ of a given measure $L|\Omega|$, with $0 < L < 1$. We prove that, if $L$ is close enough to $1$, then the optimal design problem has a unique solution, which is characterized by a finite number of low frequency modes. In particular the maximizing sequence built from spectral approximations is stationary.
