    ‘standing waves’ are created. The standing waves in your room will distort the frequency response of your system sympathetically boosting or cancelling certain frequencies. If a certain standing wave frequency is acoustically isolated from its modal neighbours its effect is more likely to be audible and problematic. This can compromise the accuracy of any loudspeaker.

    There is no one simple set of rules for speaker placement that will fit for every scenario within which a Precision Series loudspeaker is installed.

    3.0 Terminals Wilson Benesch recommends the use of 8mm ring or spade connector cable terminations. A spanner is provided to tighten up the rhodium plated nuts. A light pinch of the end of the supplied spanner is more than sufficient to tighten the nuts. Please be careful to not over tighten the terminals as this could result in damage to the terminal plate or snapping of the terminal.

    4.1 Running-in (168-hours) The quality of the sound that you hear when you first use your Precision Series loudspeakers will improve significantly over time. However, the biggest changes to the performance of your Precision Series loudspeaker will take place during what is commonly known as the running-in or burn-in period. Wilson Benesch recommends at least one hundred and six-eight hours of running in before making any subjective judgements of the speaker’s performance, but the loudspeaker will continue to improve...
