Positioning Positioning Our speakers do not impose special requirements neither in stereo nor in multichannel set-ups. Nonetheless speaker positioning has infl uence on listening impression because every room is individually designed and furnished. The following advices are just guidelines that ease proper positioning.
Positioning Stereo operation The optimum position of the speakers in your listening environment is the so-called stereo triangle (see fi gure). The base distance between the speakers and the distance to the hearing zone form an equilateral triangle (stereo triangle). A distance less than 3 m (9′10″) or more than 8 m (26′3″) should be avoided.
Positioning Surround operation In surround operation the stereo triangle (see Stereo operation) is extended to a circle. The hearing zone is the centre of this circle. Position all speakers in the same distance to the hearing zone. The centre speaker is positioned in the middle between both front speakers. Pay attention to positioning the front and rear speakers horizontally along one plane.
Set-up the speakers Set-up the speakers In this chapter we inform you how to connect your speakers to mains and your signal source. Ensure that the mains switch on the backside is in position “OFF”.
