Monitor stands
Placing your monitors on stands behind your workstation or console is very common and gives you more control
over the distance, angle, and position within the room. The first Position switch should be set to "Anechoic" so
long as the monitors are not closer than 50 cm from any wall or ceiling.
Core Mounting bracket
The Core Mounting Bracket is designed to facilitate mounting of the Core 7, 47, and 59 either on a wall, ceiling, or
even as a desk stand. This bracket is compatible with many standard K&M accessories for more mounting
options.
Soffit Mounting
In a soffit mount design, the monitors are placed within cabinets built into the walls of the listening room. This will
provide a more phase coherent bass response and better imaging if designed properly. If the Core monitors are
soffit mounted, the first Position switch should be set to "Soffit". This will compensate for the increase in bass
output from the soffit design.
When soffit mounting Core monitors, allow 12 mm of space above and below for proper ventilation of the
amplifier. The Core Sub requires an additional 50 mm or more of clearance on either side for driver excursion.
Listening angles
Usually, the monitors should be placed so that the drivers are oriented vertically, with the tweeter directly above
the woofer or midrange driver. This orientation ensures correct time alignment between the high and mid
frequencies as they arrive at the listener. The Core 59 incorporates the Orbit Baffle, which allows the tweeter and
midrange assembly to be rotated to multiple orientations so that you are free to place the woofer below, to the
side or even above this assembly.
Horizontal angle
The monitors should be placed so that they create a 60-degree angle between the monitors, as shown in Figure
4.
