  • Page 9: System Placement In The Room

    Both speakers should have the same amount of side reflections, i.e. symmetrical positions in the room relative to adjacent walls. • The Model C Music System has a time delay adjustment procedure to compensate for unsymmetrical placements of the speakers compared to the listening position. See Speaker Delay section.

    12 pieces of 48 mm high spikes for floors covered by thick carpet. c. 12 pieces of non-penetrating feet mainly for marble, granite or similar floor materials. Spikes are the most stable option but might cause damage to the floor below; therefore, the use of spikes will be each customer’s own responsibility.
  • Page 11 Installation of Amplifier Modules into the Speakers The amplifier modules are located in sealed compartments in the loudspeaker crates as illustrated. Remove the Clip-Lok clips with care as described on page 8 to avoid any damage when they are unleashed. The amplifier modules must be installed in their compartments on the speaker stands and wired prior to operation.
  • Page 12 Carefully slide the amplifier module inside (photo below). Then fasten the top of the module to the cabinet with the two M6 bolts that you previously removed. Cable Connections Between Amplifier Module and Loudspeaker After assembly of the electronics box, the three speaker cables must be connected to the amplifier module as follows: 1.
  • Page 13 Link Wiring of System The Model C Music System is connected by a proprietary Steinway Lyngdorf link. The link cable will carry both the digital audio signal and the control signals. It is very important that only CAT-5E cables and RJ-45 connectors approved by Steinway Lyngdorf are being used. Poor quality cables and plugs represent a major risk of noise and interference problems and may even cause violation of safety and EMC regulations.
  • Page 14 Installation Menu. Connecting the Power Cables DO NOT power up Model C before you have read the power-up sequence instruction on the next page! When all signal connections have been properly made, you can connect the Model C to the mains power.
  • Page 15 Powering up the System IMPORTANT! The first power up sequence after final assembly of the system can only be performed in one way: 1. Speakers first. 2. Turn on head unit after speaker activation. The head unit must be able to identify the speakers connected to it by the link network. This will happen automatically when the head unit is activated.

  • Page 26 RoomPerfect™ Room Measurements Now the room correction system will need to map the room as a whole. You must place the microphone in various room positions with random orientation in height and direction. These positions must be at least one meter (3.3 feet) away from the speakers. A minimum distance of 50 cm or 1.5 feet between the microphone positions is necessary.
  • Page 27 this point, or any time later, you can decide whether the acquired room measurements are sufficient or you wish to add further room measurements to learn more about the room’s acoustical information. Adding more room measurements results in a higher RoomKnowledge, this in turn improves the room correction filters.
  • Page 28 RoomPerfect™ Status In this submenu (last above) you will see how much the correction system knows about the room, and to which extent correction has been employed. RoomKnowledge is an index showing how many of the acoustical properties in a room have been mapped. The higher degree of knowledge, the greater the accuracy of the room correction.
  • Page 29: Roomperfectâ„¢ Troubleshooting

    Solution: Raise the measuring signal volume before continuing with the measurement, or reduce the noise from the environment. The Model C Music System will show an error message (-E-) in the volume display in case of speaker related problems.
  • Page 30 RoomPerfect™ troubleshooting WARNING: The microphone is a very sensitive and calibrated device. Treat it with utmost care. If the microphone has been dropped on the floor, or otherwise maltreated, it may have been damaged. Contact Steinway Lyngdorf for a replacement before final system calibration!
