ACOUSTIC CENTER
Finding the “Acoustic Center” is accomplished by positioning the monitors so
coherent arrival of the transducers occurs at ear level. The Acoustic Center is
located 3 to 4 feet in front of the monitor, measuring perpendicularly from the
center point of the cabinet (midway between the woofer and tweeter). Our
tests have shown that a flat phase and frequency response occurs just above
and below the Acoustic Center with the maximum and minimum height span-
ning between the tweeter dome and woofer dust cap.
MOUNTING
The monitor may be mounted on a wall or ceiling, using suitable mounting hardware. The base of the monitor includes mount-
ing inserts designed for use with “OmniMount Systems®” or equivalent mounting products1.
If you mount the monitors to a wall or ceiling, you must take special care to mount them securely to prevent them from falling
and causing damage or injury. Make sure that the mounting hardware (fasteners and connectors) and the surface you are
mounting to are each capable of securely holding the monitor in place even if it is struck or moved. Make sure the mounting
hardware, fasteners, and connectors are rated for an object at least as heavy and bulky as the monitor.
Use good judgement and common sense throughout all phases of the installation and use mounting techniques appropriate
for the surface you select. Use the mounting hardware according to the manufacturer's recommendation and provide adequate
reinforcement to the monitors if needed. Do not mount the monitor only to drywall – make sure the fasteners are secured to a
stud, joist, or other structural support. If appropriate, use a secondary support for added safety – a properly installed safety cable
provides an extra margin of safety and can be installed out of sight easily.
