The S2 is engineered for smooth performance as a wall-mounted, bookshelf, or freestanding speaker. The S2.l and S2.r are specially designed to be mounted on side walls, aimed at the main listening area at a 45 degree angle. The S2 incorporates exclusive, patented S4X™ crossover and driver-control technology, which makes possible virtually perfect integration of drivers which are ideal for their intended frequencies.
(like you would use on clothes). Bass and Loudness Contour Controls Do not use bass or loudness contour controls. Induction Dynamics’ subwoofers produce very low frequencies without these controls. Use of these controls will make the bass sound “boomy”, obscure higher frequencies, and possibly cause damage.
Stands A speaker stand is not included with the S2, but is available for purchase through your authorized Induction Dynamics dealer. The companion stand for the S2 is the ST1.S2. Speaker Wire Use approved wire designed for in-wall or exposed use, as appropriate for your installation. For the S2, we recommend using high-quality speaker wire that is 12 gauge or lower, with easily visible polarity coding to make your connections. The following chart identifies minimum gauge requirements for various lengths.
Above: The S4X crossover routes audio signal to their intended drivers at specific frequen- cies (the S2 utilizes a single crossover at 2500 Hz). Because the S4X produces such a steep crossover slope, Induction Dynamics is able to use the best possible drivers for each fre- quency range. Subwoofer crossover points are generally selectable through your subwoofer amplifier. Induction Dynamics recommends a subwoofer crossover point between 50 - 60...
Induction Dynamics® eliminates phase differences with respect to height through our Wide Angle™ phase alignment technology. Because our patented circuitry provides additional variables that can help control phase, Wide Angle finds the one optimization solution that produces a flat frequency response along the vertical axis, when the microphone (or listener’s...
Multi-Channel (Home Theater) Installation Speaker Placement and Mounting Your S2 speakers surface mount at a 45 degree angle on the side wall of the listening area. If possible, prior to installation, connect the speakers and experiment with their placement within the listening room. 1.
