Getting Started
Unpacking:
When removing the systems from their packaging, it is important not to grasp the units from the front. Because the high frequency
device is located near the top of the cabinet on the front baffle, a stray hand or finger can cause damage. The best way to safely
unpack your monitors is to open the top of the box, keep the cardboard filler piece on, and roll the box upside down. The box can then
be slipped off. This also works in reverse for repacking the units.
Placement:
The design of the LSR6300 systems lend themselves to a wide variety of placement options. Covered here is a typical stereo setup for
near to mid field monitoring. A more detailed discussion of multi-channel sound system placement is available from JBL in Tech Note
Volume 3, Number 3.
Listening Distance: The common listening position at mixing postions is generally 1 to 1.5 meters (3 to 5 feet) for near field applications.
For mid-field applications, 2 to 3 meters is more likely. The stereo listening angle is largely a matter of personal preference, and we
suggest the angle of the loudspeakers should be between 35 and 50 degrees, as shown in Figure A.
Vertical vs. Horizontal Placement:
The LSR6328P model is designed to be positioned vertically. This orientation eliminates the phase
shifts that occur when the relative distances between the woofer, tweeter and the listening position are altered. The high frequency
waveguide is designed to provide optimum dispersion when the system is placed vertically. Placing the system horizontally will defeat
the LSR principles and cause destructive reflection off the work surface.
The LSR6332 is normally used in the horizontal position. This provides the lowest elevation to maximize sight lines and reduce shadow-
ing of soffit mount monitors. In applications where vertical orientation is desired, the entire mid and high assembly can be rotated 90°
to a vertical line array position, as shown below in Figure B:
