Placing Your MPower Monitors
Proper placement of your MPower studio monitors is crucial to their
performance.
Studio/Stereo Application
We suggest placing the monitors within the front 1/3 of the room, about 3 to
5 feet away from each other and directed at a 60 degree angle towards the
listening position.
Surround Sound Application
Begin by placing the center channel monitor right in front of your listening
position. Then place the front left and right monitors at equal distance and
about 25 - 30 degree angle from the center. The three front monitors (left,
center and right) should form a slight arc as shown below. Continue by
placing the rear monitors at equal distance from the listening position and
angled about 90 - 110 degrees from center as illustrated below.
To reduce distortion by reflection and diffraction, we suggest placing the
MPower monitors at least 3 feet away, at ear level of the listening position.
To achieve the optimized performance, you may angle the monitors so they
are aimed towards your ears when in listening position.
Avoid placing any large objects near the monitors and listening position.
