When designing a studio layout, the positioning of the monitors is of the utmost importance.  

Reflection is the most common acoustics problem. 
  

As shown in Figure 8, the position of a monitor in relation to an audio mixer can change the 

sound waves and hence distort how you perceive your sound production.
