right speakers and the listening position 
should equal 60 degrees. The easiest way 
to determine this is to place the speakers in 
such a way that the distance between the left 
and right speakers is equal to the monitoring 
distance / listening position (See Figure 2). 
It is also recommended that both speakers be 
“toed-in” towards the listening position.

Additional Information

The PM0.5d was designed to be placed ver-
tically. This provides for the most accurate 
frequency response and reduces acoustic 
boundary interference. If it is not possible to 
place the speakers vertically, then the speak-
ers should be placed with the woofers inside 
and the monitors “toed-in” towards the lis-
tening area.

Once the speakers have been placed in their final location, it is time to proceed to connecting your 
PM0.5d to the mixing console or digital workstation. Connection to the PM0.5d can be made using 
the XLR balanced connector, TS phone or RCA pin unbalanced jacks. The connection of PM0.5d to 
the console/digital workstation should be done in the following order.

Step 1: Make sure that all equipment has been powered down.
Step 2: Confirm that all gain controls on the speakers and the source are set to minimum.
Step 3: Connect the source to the PM0.5d.

It is recommended that the PM0.5d be lo-
cated in such a way that the acoustic center 
is located at, or about, seated ear height (See 
Figure 1 on the next page). If this is not 
possible, it may be necessary to tilt/aim the 
speaker at the listeners ears.
