What size of rooms are most suitable for control room?

If we are talking about a stereo control room, the most optimal are the premises from 30 to 50 square meters. Smaller rooms are more difficult to design and harder to achieve a desired result, especially in controlling of low frequencies. In areas larger than 50 square meters we can meet up with other problems. In any case – no matter how big the room is – the distance from the listening position to the monitors can not be more than five meters.

Ceiling height in the future control room can not be less than three meters. In this case – after finishing works -resulting ceiling height can be approximately 215cm. The best choices are the premises with a ceiling height of 4-5 meters or higher. Width of control room can be more than 450sm, depth – more than 300 cm. Location window and door openings also affects the decision. The abovementioned figures are approximate and rather minimal. They are shown without insulation, otherwise they should be more.

Why do you prefer to use in your studios Reflexion Arts monitors?

First, in my opinion, because it is the best monitors in the world not only in sound, but also on their performance characteristics. Of course, one could argue that the assessment of monitors is more subjective category . Then I will not argue. But there are objective factors which can not argue. For example, somebody might prefer cameras Kodak, and someone else, for example, Nikon. This is a matter of taste. However, any camera with 17 megapixels resolution is always better than camera with 2 megapixels resolution.
Secondly, the use of Newell’s monitors is profitable. If you compare their cost with the cost of similar monitors from different manufacturers, Reflexion Arts monitors allows the user to save about $25000 and more.
So our choice of these monitors is not a tribute to advertising or friendship. We managed only common sense and the desire to achieve maximum results.
