A Moment of Reflection

When choosing the height of your monitor system, be careful to avoid reflections off

the surface of the mixing console. (Figure 3.) These reflections arrive at the listening

position slightly delayed from the original sound resulting in strange cancellations

and overall unpredictable response. Visualize straight lines representing the beams of

sound radiating from the monitors and choose a height that reduces the occurrence

of reflections that will end up in the prime listening spot. (Figure 4.) In most cases,

the ideal position is slightly behind and above the mixing console’s meter bridge. Also,

allow at least 3-inches from the rear of the cabinet to any wall. This will insure proper

operation of the tuned bass ports.

Speaker Orientation

The MediaOne Series can be used in either the vertical or horizontal position. When

using the monitors in the horizontal position, be certain to place the left and right side

tweeters on the outer most sides. (Figure 2) This will improve the stereo imaging and

bass response by increasing the coupling of the low-end drivers.
