Adapt the loudspeaker to your room
When a loudspeaker is placed in
a corner or close to a wall, the
bass level is boosted compared to
the bass level from a loudspeaker
placed in a more free-standing
position.
To remove this excessive bass
boost, use the POSITION switch
to ensure that the bass level suits
the placement of the loudspeaker.
The appropriate switch setting
depends on the distance from
the loudspeaker to the walls and
corners of the room.
The POSITION switch
The POSITION switch has two
settings – F and W:
• F (Free-standing position)
Use this setting if the loudspeaker is
placed so that the front grill is more
than 50 cm (20") from the rear wall,
for example on the Floor Stand, on
the Motorised Table Stand, or on
the Table Stand.
• W (Wall position)
Use this setting if the loudspeaker
is placed so that the front grill is less
than 50 cm (20") from the rear wall.
Always use this setting if the
loudspeaker is placed on any of the
wall brackets, but also when placed
on the stands mentioned above –
close to the rear wall.
The POSITION switch is located on
the socket panel.
How to measure… The distance
is measured as shown here – the
loudspeaker seen from above.
