Positioning RSX Loudspeakers

Avoiding Feedback

Feedback is the annoying howling and squealing that can heard when the microphone picks up sound 
from the speaker. The sound is then re-amplified back through the speaker again, creating a feedback 
loop. Follow these steps to minimize the likelihood of feedback:

• 

Avoid pointing microphones directly at the speaker. In general it is recommended that the micro-
phone be positioned behind the speaker enclosure. This uses the directional characteristics of the 
speaker and microphone to your advantage.

• 

Keep the microphone as far from the speaker as possible. This will help achieve isolation between 
the speaker and the microphone, and allow you to increase the output of the RSX Loudspeaker. 

• 

Position the microphone as close to the sound source as possible. This will enable the microphone 
to pick up more direct sound, and allow you to reduce the microphone input gain control. 

• 

Reduce the overall level of the speaker.

Positioning the RSXM10a/RSXM12a Floor Monitors

The RSXM10a/RSXM12a speakers are ideal solutions for 
stage monitoring thanks to its unique compact, low-profile 
design. In a large stage monitor system, several speakers 
can be daisy-chained together using the Line Output. 
When positioning the monitor, be mindful of the placement 
of your microphones to help reduce feedback problems. 
It’s a really good idea to know your microphone’s pick up 
pattern to choose the right spot. Some microphones, like 
super and hyper-cardioid models, offer a lot of rejection in 
the rear of their pick up pattern and when the RSXM10a/
RSXM12a is positioned at the same angle as the rejection, 
you can set the monitor a lot louder before it feeds 
back. In many instances you may choose to 
use an external equalizer to increase the 
volume and reduce the chance of 
feedback. 
When using the RSXM10a and 
RSXM12a on a speaker stand, it is 
recommended to set the MONITOR/FOH 
switch in the MONITOR position for optimal 
frequency response.
