ESI aktiv 05

3. Placement

The placement of monitoring speakers is very critical and can compromise their performance. This

is a general rule for every loudspeaker. To monitor with aktiv 05 utilizing their maximum

capabilities, an appropriate listening environment and a correct placement are important.

Typically you would be using 2 units of aktiv 05 as one stereo pair – or more in surround setups

(i.e. in a 5.1 setup you would use 5 units of aktiv 05 together with a subwoofer).

Stereo / 2.0 Positioning

Two units and the listener should be positioned or aligned in a regular triangle form. Please refer to

the following diagram to understand how to position your monitors. Each distance x should be

identical.

Stereo with Subwoofer / 2.1 Positioning

In a stereo setup with an added subwoofer, the subwoofer speaker should be positioned ideally in

the exact middle in front of the listener (with the same distance x). If this is not possible, it should

be as close to that position as possible.
