English The "Sweet Spot" For both stereo and surround mixing your position in relation to the main front speakers - the "sweet spot" as it's often called - should be one apex of an equilateral triangle. In other words your distance from either speaker should be the same as the distance between the two speakers. The speakers should also be "toed in" to the corresponding 60° angle so that the drivers are aimed directly at the listening position. The height of the speakers should be such that the tweeters are roughly aligned with your ears (this is because high frequencies are the most directional). 60˚ Fine-tuning for Stereo (MSP7 STUDIO or MSP5 STUDIO x 2) ● The speaker LEVEL controls should be set to the same level. A setting of about 12 o'clock corresponds to a nominal input level. ● Since no subwoofer is being used in this setup, if your speakers have a LOW CUT switch, set it to "FLAT" (the MSP7 STUDIO has a LOW CUT switch). ● For accurate monitoring set the LOW TRIM switch to "0". If you want to reduce the low-frequency level a bit set the switch to "-1.5". ● For accurate monitoring set the HIGH TRIM switch to "0". This switch can be set to "-1.5 dB" to attenuate the highs slightly if you find the sound too bright. MSP7 STUDIO/MSP5 STUDIO/SW10 STUDIO Owner's Manual 7
