Bi-amp Mode
LINKS REMOVED
Bi-amping extends the principle of bi-wiring one stage further.
In this connection option, separate power amplifiers are used for
bass and treble signals in each loudspeaker. Four mono (or two
stereo) amplifiers of the same type are required for a stereo pair of
loudspeakers.
If two stereo amplifiers are used, it is recommended that one
amplifier supply bass information to left and right loudspeakers and
the other, the treble information. It is important not to use the link
cables on the terminal panel, otherwise amplifier damage may result.

Operation
Installation
When choosing a suitable location for the monitors, bear in mind that
the physical mounting of loudspeakers can have a large influence on
performance. For best results, the monitors should be mounted on a
rigid structure, supported on pads making contact with the laminated
panel. Self-adhesive foam pads are provided with the loudspeakers
for that purpose. If you intend to arrange the monitors in landscape
format, detach the whole pad from the backing paper and stick it on
the large side to become the bottom of the cabinet;
for portrait arrangement the pad is pre-cut so that one half can be
easily detached to match the smaller size of the bottom panel.
We recommend location of the monitors so that the drive units are
toed inwards, with their axes oriented towards the listening position.
The distance between the two speakers should be 2 to 3 metres,
depending on the monitoring position. The distance between the
monitoring position and each speaker should be slightly greater than
the distance between the speakers. If the speakers are placed too
close to each other, the full stereo image may not develop. On the
other hand, if you place them too far apart you will notice a hole in
the middle of the stereo image.
Ensure that the console position does not obscure the direct sound
radiation from the Dual Concentric drive unit when sitting down.
The engineer and producer should have a clear, uninterrupted view of
the monitor loudspeakers.
