Tape Tech / Safe monitor speaker to R2R deck distance?
« on: September 07, 2016, 05:33:28 PM »
Greetings,
I'm setting up a project studio which is R2R tape (½") centric. Right now the deck is in the center of the recording arrangement with speakers on shelves 3-4' away and about 2' higher than the deck. Is there a rule of thumb to come up with a safe distance to maintain between the deck/tape and speakers? I've never had occasion to have them lined up like this in setting up a purely playback system, so this is new to me.
Thanks in Advance!
