Mid-Field Configuration – This configuration is similar to the Close-Field configuration.
It is normally used with larger monitors or when the monitors are too large or heavy to be
placed on the work surface. This set up has the potential for a larger sweet spot and
better spatial imaging. Make sure that the monitor is high enough so that the woofer is not
obscured by your mixing surface or studio furniture (refer to Figure 2).

Adding a Subwoofer
Note that KRK subwoofers are optimized for use with KRK full range monitors. Begin by
determining the best location for your subwoofer. If possible, the optimum set up would
reflect that shown in Figure 3; however, this set up may not be practical, or possible, in
your room. Once you have set up your monitors, listen to program material that you know
contains low frequency information. If your subwoofer has a phase switch, adjust the
subwoofer to provide the highest frequency setting possible. Flip the switch back and forth
to find the loudest setting. Then adjust the sub’s low pass filter so that it works in
conjunction with the satellite’s high pass frequencies. When you have finished, readjust the
level of the sub.
