Placing the BX8a

Placing the speakers is one of the most important procedures in order to monitor sound accurately. To

monitor with the BX8a’s performing to their maximum capability, an appropriate listening environment

and correct placement are required. Please refer to the following for correct BX8a placement.

1. The two units and the listener should basically align to form a regular triangle. Refer to the following

diagram.

2. Position the monitors so that the top of the woofers are level with your ears in a normal listening

environment. Refer to the following diagram.

3. Place the BX8a’s vertically with the woofer on the bottom. Placing the BX8a’s horizontally is not

recommended.

Remarks: DO NOT place any obstacles that may block the ﬂow of air in front or between the

monitors. Also remove reﬂective materials such as glass, mirrors or metal from the monitoring

environment. PLACE THOSE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE PATH OF THE SOUND FROM

THE BX8a’s.
