  • Page 5: Speaker Placement

    The soundstage and acoustic coverage is totally present throughout the entire listening area, so it takes fewer Totem speakers to thoroughly fill a room than competitive brands. In-walls create a soundstage with remarkable height and width, often beyond the boundaries of the room itself.
  • Page 6 Recommended Speaker Wire General Placement Guidelines Always bear in mind that corner locations cause acoustic directionality, limit dispersion and emphasize low frequencies. Inwall Placement When using in-wall speakers as main channels, optimal sound will be achieved when they are mounted at or slightly above ear level.
  • Page 7 True to both Totem and Kin heritage, all models possess our characteristic phase linearity for uncanny realism, a full range response for truly dynamic performance, and remarkably huge dispersion that facilitates placement and fills the room. They can also intermix harmoniously with any existing traditional, on-wall, or architectural Totem speaker for a variety of multi-channel options.
  • Page 8 Stereo Audio Application When a pair of Tribe Architectural Series speakers are used for conventional stereo reproduction, OR in conjunction with a TV, they should be placed in front and adjacent to the TV. Whenever possible, leave some distance from rear and side wall boundaries.
  • Page 9 Positioning the Angled In-Ceiling Speaker The TRIBE AIC is composed of three active drivers on one portion of the angled baffle, and two passives on the other. The active drivers should be directed towards the listening area for the most direct signal and best overall performance.
  • Page 10: Limited Warranty
