TOE-IN / INCLINATION IN STEREO MODE
(See graphic 9)
The SOLO should be toed-in at first, so the speakers
are pointing directly to the listening position.
If the sound is too “direct” and too “forward
sounding” for your personal taste, you can “toe-
out” the speakers in small steps. In its extreme
you can even set up the speakers parallel to the
back wall. In this case we recommend a minimum
distance to the side walls of 5 feet (1,5m) to avoid
reflections from the side walls.
With the metal-base stand its is also possible to tilt
the speaker. So if you have a relatively high listening
position the speaker can be tilted backwards by
adjusting the feet or spikes.
Test the RLX placement! In this case the focus of
the tweeters are pointing to a position 1.5 feet
(50cm) in front of your actual listening seat. Voices
and solo-instruments will be nicely separated and
appear to come from a deeper soundstage. In
this case the stereo area is more focussed to the
listening position.
When you change the position/angle of the
speakers, you should always first mark the
original position of the speaker on the floor
(e.g. with tape), so you can easily return to the
previous position.
