Speaker Placement - Alesis ELEVATE 4 Guide D'utilisation

Setup

Speaker Placement

The placement of your speakers
has a huge impact on how well
they will perform in your studio.
Although nearfield
monitors are designed to be more
forgiving when
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 Elevate 4 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.
