Thanks! It's Front Port Monitors so, it doesn't matter to as close to the front wall? In fact, it supposed to created the FAKE LOW when get closer to the wall if it's REAR Ported Speakers, am I correct? So, in my case, fine to be seated right in front of the front wall?
So, i'm good to Mix now?
No, I have asked about this before (coz I don't know!) but no one seemed qualified to jump in?
The port, whether front, back or side passive radiator is only inches from the cone. No distance at all at the frequencies of interest, say below 60Hz?
60Hz has a wavelength of 18feet so even a pretty big monitor will still effectively be a 'point source' and therefore Omni-directional. The cone and port(s) are integrated within that point source.
So yes, having a speaker close to a boundary WILL affect the LF response but I cannot see, from first principles, that it matters a.f. WHERE the port is?
