Refer to the following tips before you decide on a location and position for the monitor speakers. ■ Distance from the walls and corners To monitor the sound accurately, locate the speakers far from the walls and corners. As the speakers move closer to the walls or corners, sound reflection from the walls will emphasize the low range, reducing the quality of the speaker response. (Ideally, keep a distance of minimum 1.5 meters from the walls.) If you have no other choice, adjust the frequency response for the monitoring environment (such as equalizing the speaker frequencies) or slightly cut the low range during the mix. ■ Distance and angle from the listening point Place L and R channel speakers so that they and the listening point will form an equilateral triangle. Position the speakers so that the face of the speakers are pointing toward the listening point. Keep an equal distance between the speaker and the listening point for each speaker so that the left and right monitor signals will be well-balanced. Adjust the speaker height so that the tweeter will be at the same height as your ears. In this way, you will be able to hear higher ranges, which project at a narrow angle. Owner's Manual 23
