ROOM PLACEMENT IN HOME THEATRE MODE
(See graphic 10)
Both REAR CHANNEL speakers should be
positioned behind the listening position. Ideally
these speakers should be mounted relatively high.
If possible use the wall mount bracket, but the
speaker stand will do as well fine.
The CENTER-CHANNEL should be centered
between the FRONT LEFT/RIGHT speakers. Ideally
all 3 front channel speakers are installed at the
same height. If not possible, use a lower position
for the CENTER CHANNEL and incline it up.
The FRONT LEFT/RIGHT speakers should
be positioned like in standard 2-way Stereo
applications.
TOE-IN / INCLINATION IN HOME THEATRE
(See graphic 10)
The SOLO should be toed-in and inclined (wall
mount) at first, so the speakers are pointing directly
to the listening position.
If the sound is too “direct” and too focused to the
listening position, you can vertically/horizontally
“toe-out” and change the inclination angle (only
wall mount!) of the speakers in small steps.
The CENTER channel should always be directly
focused to the middle listening position.
POWER MODULE SETTINGS
(See graphic 10)
The LOW EQ attenuator
can be carefully used
as a tool to adjust the “tonal balance” of the
system.
If the LOW EQ attenuator is purposely set to
a higher setting, the speaker will sound “warmer”,
with a richer “body” and “substance” in its tonal
characteristics.
But be cautious: if the setting is too high,
the midrange will loose part of its horn-typical
transparency and resolution.
If the LOW EQ attenuator is purposely set
to a lower setting, the tonal balance of the system
will shift to a more horntypical “dynamic” and
“punchy” sound. But again be cautious: if it is set
too low, the system will loose volume/substance
and may sound “thin”.
