Setting up your speakers
The Tweeter should be positioned approximately at the height of your ears. In case you
need to position the speaker in a signifi cant lower or higher position, the monitor needs
to be angled.
Placement of 2 speakers
The ideal placement of two speakers and a listener in a two-channel stereo listening
situation are the corner points of a equilateral triangle (60° angles). Since the S2A is a
near fi eld monitor, the best performance will be achieved with a stereo base/listening
distance between 1 and 3 meters.
Surround placement
Speaker positioning for multi-channel stereo purposes is ideally based on a circle with
speakers placed at 0° (Center), 30° (Front Right), 110° (Rear Right), 250° (Rear Left),
330° (Front Left), with the listener being the circle’s center (Radius between 0.7-2.0 m).
This ITU recommended confi guration may vary depending on the purpose of the control
room (music or fi lm). However, it is recommended to create a symmetrical listening
position with the front side and surround speaker pointing to the listener’s ear.
The distance to the surrounding walls should be at least 40 cm to avoid early refl ections,
which will degrade the sound.
