Setting up the MediaOne Series
Positioning the MediaOne Series - continued
Speaker Orientation
The MediaOne Series can be used in either the vertical or horizontal position. When
using the monitors in the horizontal position, be certain to place the left and right side
tweeters on the outer most sides. (Figure 2) This will improve the stereo imaging and
bass response by increasing the coupling of the low-end drivers.
A Moment of Reflection
When choosing the height of your monitor system, be careful to avoid reflections off
the surface of the mixing console. (Figure 3.) These reflections arrive at the listening
position slightly delayed from the original sound resulting in strange cancellations
and overall unpredictable response. Visualize straight lines representing the beams of
sound radiating from the monitors and choose a height that reduces the occurrence
of reflections that will end up in the prime listening spot. (Figure 4.) In most cases,
the ideal position is slightly behind and above the mixing console's meter bridge. Also,
allow at least 3-inches from the rear of the cabinet to any wall. This will insure proper
operation of the tuned bass ports.
