✨ Got new studio monitors? Set them up like a pro with these 3 essential tips!

1️⃣ Orientation Matters – Place your monitors as intended (Vertically or Horizontally). Wrong placement can cause phasing issues! Check the H or V in the model name for guidance. A Series users can rotate the waveguide for better dispersion if needed, but the risk of phasing issues remains.

2️⃣ The Stereo Triangle – Your listening position should form an equilateral triangle with your monitors. Equal distances ensure accurate stereo imaging for precise mixing decisions. The exact distance depends on your monitors and room.

3️⃣ The Acoustical Axis – Your ears should be in line with the acoustical axis (or for simplicity the tweeter). You can also angle or raise your studio monitors with stands. This also helps to decouple the monitors from the desk.
