Connecting your Silver RS FX
The Silver RS FX’s are supplied as right hand or left hand units and both can be
configured to either bi-pole or di-pole. The factory setting is bi-pole as
illustrated infig. 1 below.
In bi-pole mode, all speaker units (mid/bass unit and tweeters) are in phase.
This feature is for when the RS FX is set up as a rear/surround speaker in a
typical 5.1 channel system. In di-pole mode, one of the HF units (tweeter) is out
of phase with the other tweeter and mid/bass unit. It is best to implement this
configuration when using the RS FX as part of a 7.1 channel system, with the RS
FX’s taking up positions on the sidewalls. Please note that the RS FX’s are left
and right handed. This is not an issue when used in bi-pole mode as a rear
surround speaker. It is essential that they are positioned correctly if used in a
7.1 channel system. Please refer to the positioning section on page 15, or go to
our web site at www.monitoraudio.co.uk. Alternative suggestions may also be
found in your AV amplifier/receivermanual.
Before changing your RS FX’s from bi-pole mode to di-pole mode, please ensure
that the speaker wires are disconnected from your loudspeakers. This helps to
protectyour amplifier.
To change from bi-pole, to di-pole mode, the toggle switch on the crossover
panel needs to be moved from its factory set position (fig. 1) to the di-pole
position(fig. 2).
Please note that it is not possible to connect these speakers
independentlyby bi-amping.
