Setting up your system
2 channel system
When arranging a 2 channel system, the listening position and the loudspeakers should
form an equilateral triangle. Ideally the loudspeakers should be positioned approximately
6 - 10 feet (1.8 - 3m) apart and a minimum of 3 feet (91cm) from the side walls. The ideal
distance from the rear wall varies depending on the loudspeaker (see list below).
Platinum 100 3G
15 - 30 cm / 6 - 12"
Platinum 200 3G
20 - 36 cm / 8 - 14"
Platinum 300 3G
30 - 61 cm / 12 - 24"
NOTE: These are recommended distances for optimal performance.
Actual results will vary dependant on room size, construction and personal tastes.
Experimentation is strongly advised when setting up the loudspeakers, as environment
and personal preference will differ with every installation.
If there is insufficient bass for example, try moving your loudspeakers closer to the rear
wall. The opposite approach is recommended if there is excessive bass. Additionally
refer to the information relating to port bungs on page 19. If stereo imaging is being lost,
try 'toeing' them in slightly. Sounds that are recorded equally to each channel should
sound as though they come from between the speakers.
