Page 3: Design Philosophy
Design Philosophy The CS2.7 loudspeaker is a precision instrument designed to translate, as accurately as possible, electronic information into musical sound. All our efforts have been directed toward achieving extremely faithful translation of all tonal, spatial, and dynamic information as supplied by the amplifier. -
Page 4: Positioning The Speakers
POSITIONING THE SPEAKERS Because of their unipolar radiation pattern, the CS2.7s will provide good results when placed in a variety of room locations. However, speaker placement will affect the accuracy of timbre, spatial performance, and bass performance. Here are some guidelines to help you achieve the best sound from your speakers. - Page 5 Spacing Because of their very wide, even dispersion of energy, the CS2.7s can usually be placed farther apart than most other speakers. Optimum imaging is usually achieved when the speakers are almost as far apart as each speaker is from the listener, although this will depend on the width of the room—narrow rooms require more narrow placement.
- Page 6 Some rooms, especially narrow ones, can benefit from placing the speakers along the long wall. Although space behind the speaker and behind the listener is reduced, this positioning in- creases the space between the speak- ers without side-wall interference, and can improve overall performance. Figure 4 shows the same average size room as Figure 3, but with long-wall placement.

If for some reason you need to service the driver or crossover elements in your CS2.7, be aware that the drivers are mounted using 9/64” hex head screws, and all drivers are soldered into place. The coaxial/ coincident driver and passive bass radiator are removed from the front of the speaker. -

Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, THIEL and the Consumer Electronics Association rec- ommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise. Depending on room size and amplifier power, some home audio systems can reach sound pressure levels in excess of 95 decibels with peaks of over a 105 decibels. - Page 12 The Legend Continues www.thielaudio.com...
