Setup
Speaker Placement
The placement of your speakers has a huge impact on
how well they will perform in your studio. Although
nearfield studio monitors are designed to be more
forgiving when it comes to placement, you should do
your best to make sure they form an equilateral triangle
relative to your head. In other words, make sure that
each speaker is equally distant from both your head as
well as the other speaker. Once each speaker has
been placed, rotate the speakers slightly so that the
drivers are pointing toward the listener.
Take a look at the diagram on the right. Notice that the
distance from the listener's head to each speaker is the
same as the distance between the left and right
speakers. Also note that the speakers are turned
slightly so that the drivers are facing the listener. This is
an ideal setup but if it is not practical (or possible) to
do this, try to match this setup as closely as possible.
Speaker Height
The ideal height for N-Wave 360 is
so that the speaker is parallel to the
ground and that the midpoint of the
woofer and tweeter is at ear-height.
The diagram to the right
demonstrates the ideal placement
height of the speakers relative to
the listener. Notice that the
listener's ears are directly between
the woofer and tweeter.
Left Speaker Right Speaker
Listener
The speakers and listener should
be at the three corners of an
equilateral triangle.
