Recommended.
The long-term sound pressure levels (SPL) displayed take into consideration
an average room reverberation time (RT60) of 0.3 sec.
Note: at extremely long distances the SPL
may become too low for the application.
Not recommended.
When too close to the monitor, the drivers - tweeter or midrange/tweeter - are
not summing together properly at the crossover point, which affects the
perceived frequency response balance
