Frequently asked questions

What is the recommended speaker placement?

Place the monitors so that the two speakers and the engineer form an equilateral triangle when viewed from above.

Can I connect both XLR/TRS and RCA inputs simultaneously?

It is not recommended to play audio through both connectors simultaneously as this may overload the inputs and result in clipping.

How should I position my ears relative to the speakers?

Position the speakers so that they are parallel to the ground and that your ears are between the midpoint of the woofer and the tweeter.
