How to use

Place the TRUTH 4.5 BT monitors on stands or a desk at ear height and form an equilateral triangle with the listening position for best stereo imaging. Use wired connections from your audio interface for critical mixing work; enable Bluetooth only for quick reference playback or when wired access is not convenient. Allow a brief warm-up period after powering on to stabilize the drivers before critical listening. Adjust monitor placement and room acoustics to minimise early reflections and achieve a more accurate soundstage.

Recommendations

For mixing and mastering tasks, prioritise wired inputs to ensure the lowest latency and most reliable audio quality. Use the Bluetooth function for casual listening or quick client previews. Position the monitors symmetrically and treat nearby reflective surfaces to improve accuracy in the near field.
