SETTING UP

To obtain optimal sound results, it is generally necessary to try out different set-ups.
Since the room conditions have a major effect on sound reproduction, we suggest below a few useful
approaches for positioning your AURUM loudspeakers.
Main speakers (front)
Where the speakers are positioned in the listening space has a decisive effect on their sound. Placing the
speakers near the corners of the room will essentially give you loud bass reproduction but with little outline.
On the other hand, speakers positioned well away from the walls sound precise, but also very bright and thin.
The best solution is to place the speakers with at least 30 cm between their backs and the nearest wall. To
avoid loud wall reflections, the distance from the side walls of the room can even be 50 cm or more. With their
slanted fronts, the floorstand speakers are specially adapted to acoustic demands. Bookshelf speaker units
sound best on a speaker stand or shelf, with the tweeters arranged at ear height. The cases should be angled
and slightly tilted to achieve this.
So far as possible, the speakers should be equidistant from the listening position, while the distance of the
speakers from each other can be rather less than the distance from the listener.
Centre loudspeaker
These loudspeakers are no longer magnetically screened since the increase in use of plasma and LCD TVs.
Since mounting on the television is no longer possible the centre loudspeaker can be placed lying horizontally
under the television.

The distance to the television should be about 30 cm and at least 20 cm above the floor.
Apart from the above, we recommend angling the center speaker so that the tweeter is aimed at the listener
in order to enjoy its full sound potential.
Rear center speaker
In contrast to 5.1 surround sets, 6.1 systems have an additional rear center speaker that should be placed
behind and slightly above the typical listening position.
