SYSTEM SETUP
Overall system setup is crucial to avoid unnecessary room acoustic interaction. A room's
natural acoustics may alter the sound level at various frequencies due to abnormal
damping or reflections. Follow the checklist below for more details.
1.
The system setup (studio monitors and work desk) should be placed within the
front 1/3 of the room. Doing so will minimize room modes and reduce buildup
of peak frequencies.
2.
The left and right sides of the system setup should be centered at an equal
distance from the left and right walls. Treat side walls with acoustic absorption
at the first reflection point. This will ensure a more even frequency response
and preserve stereo imaging.
3.
Avoid a listening position (your ears) that is closer than 3 feet (1 meter) from
any wall. Also, avoid large objects (such as lamps or decorations) near the
studio monitor and listening position.
4.
Diffusers and absorption material on the walls, in the corners, and back of
a room will further help remove destructive room modes. (There are many
articles and videos online to help with proper acoustic treatments).
5.
Carpeting will help prevent reflections from hard floor surfaces.
6.
Studio monitor isolators (foam or rubber pads) will help remove low-frequency
coupling between the stands and desk. Low-frequency coupling will cause the
stand or desk to vibrate, causing unwanted sounds.
7.
A low noise floor in your room (no outside interference from appliances,
machinery, or fans) is important to prevent the masking of low-frequency
detail. Rattles due to studio monitor playback should be fixed as well.
Within the system setup, the studio monitors and listening placement should be
positioned in a near-field configuration as follows: The left and right studio monitors
should be approximately 3 to 5 feet (1 to 1.5 meters) apart and directed at a 60-degree
angle towards the listening location. Measure the distance between the left and right
studio monitors and sit in the listening position that is equal distance to both sides. This
will form an equilateral triangle. It is important that both left and right studio monitors
are level-matched (set to the same volume).
The KREATE SERIES monitors are two-way studio monitor systems with a tweeter
(producing high frequencies) and a woofer (producing mid and low frequencies) in
one enclosure. The tweeter is the acoustic axis point. The acoustic axis point should be
directly pointed to ear level in the listening position. It is acceptable to angle the studio
monitors to ensure the acoustic axis is pointed in the correct direction.
