Adjusting The Levels - T+A TCI 1 RE Montagehinweise

Adjusting the levels

Bass range:
The acoustic qualities of some listening
rooms may necessitate an adjustment in
the bass level. For example, if the
speakers are close to a wall it is often
necessary to reduce the level of the bass
output.
The TCI series of loudspeakers include a
multi-stage switch for this purpose. The
switch is located on the rear face of the
loudspeaker.
This switch allows you to adjust the
volume of the bass range to compensate
for the speaker location. For example, we
recommend that you set the switch
position to +1.5 if the speakers are located
a long way from the nearest wall (> 1.5 m).
At the other extreme, if the speakers are
very close to the wall, in our experience
the best sound is obtained with the switch
set to 0 dB. Setting up the speakers in the
corners of a room often requires a setting
of -1.5 dB.
High-frequency and mid-range:
In the same way that it is necessary to
adjust the bass to suit the acoustic
characteristics of the listening room, TCI
series loudspeakers enable the user to
fine-tune the high-frequency and mid-
range levels. The usual back panel
switches for
complemented by two more switches, for
which the factory default setting is 0 dB.
Both switches provide volume adjustment
of +/- 1.5 dB. These adjustments may be
useful if your listening room is particularly
reverberant or extremely highly damped.
For highly
recommend the -1.5 dB setting. On the
other hand, if your room is very severely
damped a lift of 1.5 dB may give more
favourable results.
