Soffit-mount my o300?

LSD-Studio · 19th December 2007

Hello, I'm thinking about soffit mounting my main speakers (Klein und Hummel O300).

my room is (now) 7x5.3meters (slanted ceailing 3-4m high). so by soffit.mounting it would be like 6.20x5.30 or so.

the speakerposition now is about 1.5m from the frontwall yielding in a listening positioon of 38% of the room length.

what do you think, would soffit-mounting the O300 give me any advantages?

cheers

I spoke to K+H's engineers about this and they recommended that I either soffit mount or place them up against the wall--this is to minimize any filtering/cancellation problems from behind the monitors. You would need to set the EQ on the back according to what's stated in the manual for that position.
