Speaker placement

I have a stupid question, but I'm just trying to do it right. How do i know how high to place my flush mounted speakers? I was thinking, measure from floor to ear while sitting in my mixing chair, then use that same measurment to the center of the speaker box. Is this right or wrong?

Yeah - that's the way to go providing you are not 2 foot tall :):) Make sure they don't fire straight into the back of you console though - your meter bridge height will be a factor here. cheers john

I was planning on mounting my monitors vertically but when I sit down the tweeter seems too high, I measured to the center of the speaker box but it seems that the tweeter is going to go over my head. Should I mount them Horizontally?

You can mount the horizontally provided they are a mirror image pair - if you do make sure the woofers are in the center with the tweeters on the outer. Otherwise you have to lean the front forward which gets tricky carpentry wise. cheers John

Hey John, Anything wrong with fliping monitors upside down? I'm experimenting with the Dyns this way -- and I think I like :lol: It puts the tweeters right at ear height -- and appears that I would not have to construct vertical angle for the soffits. How common is this from your experience? Best, Dave
