Speaker set-up

Before you start installation we would
like to give you a couple of tips about
your speaker set-up. The speakers
have been designed so that the best
sounds are achieved when the
tweeter is located above the bass.
This is also true if the speakers are
located high up under a false ceiling.
With a stereo pairing, the speakers
must be positioned in the same way,
as shown here:
If space doesn't allow you to install
the speakers vertically, they can be
mounted horizontally in a mirrored
configuration, so that the tweeters are
to the outside, as shown here:

cinema applications
The best results are achieved when the
tweeter are located at about the
listener's ear-level.
between the speakers is dependant on
the size of the room and the distance
from the listener. A general rule-of-
thumb is that the speakers should be at
least 1.5 metres ( 5 ft ) away from the
listener. If possible you should aim to
create an equilateral triangle with the
positioning of the two speakers and the
listener. If the speakers are too far
apart, this can lead to some sound
imperfections in the middle of the
listening area. If they are too close on
the other hand, you can lose some of
the sense of space, starting with a
reduction in the offset in depth.
