Also make sure the listening position is not right in the centre of the room if possible. In larger rooms, this is less
critical than in small rooms.
Sometimes, the ideal positioning is not possible to achieve. Limitations in terms of space and other equipment or
furniture in the room may influence several aspects of the monitor position. In short, the idea is to do the best you
can with the limitations you have.

Listening distance and mounting
The Core 7 monitors are designed as nearfield monitors. Nearfield monitors should be placed relatively close to
the listener, between 1 and 3 metres.
The Core 47 and Core 59 can be used both as a near or midfield monitor, positioned between 1.5 to 4
meters.
When used as an LF extension, the Core Sub should be placed with the front baffle at the same distance to the
listener as the other monitors. If the Core Sub is used in a surround or immersive setting, follow the guidelines
for that application.
Monitors on the desk or console
These monitors are designed to work well in a variety of positions, including when placed closely and on the work
surface in front of you. If they are resting on a desk or a console meter bridge, they may be tilted up or down to
aim at ear level with great results. The first Position switch should be set to "Desk".
