Speaker set-up

Before you start installation we
would like to give you a couple
of tips about your speaker set-
up. The speakers have been
designed so that the best
sounds are achieved when the
tweeter is located above the
bass. This is also true if the
speakers are located high up
under a false ceiling. With a
stereo pairing, the speakers
must be positioned in the same
way, as shown here:
If space doesn't allow you to
install the speakers vertically,
they can be mounted
horizontally in a mirrored
configuration, so that the
tweeters are to the outside, as
shown here:

The best results are achieved
when the tweeter are located at
about the listener's ear-level. The
distance between the speakers is
dependant on the size of the
room and the distance from the
listener. A general rule-of-thumb
is that the speakers should be at
least 1.5 metres ( 5 ft ) away from
the listener. If possible you
should aim to create an
equilateral triangle with the
positioning of the two speakers
and the listener. If the speakers
are too far apart, this can lead to
some sound imperfections in the
middle of the listening area. If
they are too close on the other
hand, you can lose some of the
sense of space, starting with a
reduction in the bass separation.
