Optimizing Performance
(continued)
5. Listen from the primary listening
position, increasing volume to a
comfortable level.
6. Adjust the High Frequency Level
control on each I20/I30 to change
high-frequency balance and timbre.
7. Adjust the Listener Axis control
depending on the position of the
primary listening location. Refer to
Figure 19 (previous page).
•
Select the “high” (up arrow) setting
if the speaker is mounted so that
the listener is above the tweeter
level.
•
Select the “on axis” setting if the
listener location is directly on
axis.
•
Select the “low” (down arrow)
setting if the speaker is mounted so
that the listener is significantly
below the tweeter.
When the loudspeaker has been
mounted upside-down, (with the
woofer higher than the tweeter), refer
to Figure 19 (previous page). The listen-
er axis control settings function in the
opposite manner as normal operation:
•
Select the “low” setting if the
speaker is mounted so that the
listener is at tweeter level or
above.
•
Select the “high” setting if the
speaker is mounted so that the
listener is below the tweeter.
8. Repeat these steps to optimize
performance of the second I20/I30.
Note
For best results, set the High Frequency
Level, High Frequency Tilt, and the
Listener Axis controls to the same posi-
tions on both loudspeakers.
Painting the Frame
Proper surface preparation is critical for
best results. Use spray, roller (smooth), or a
pad to apply the paint. Clean and prime
the frame surface prior to painting.
1. Place frame on a protected work
surface.
2. Install plastic paint mask (includ-
ed) into the frame.
3. Clean front edges of frame face by
gently rubbing with a soft rag
dampened with rubbing alcohol.
4. Apply one coat of white or neutral
color water-based primer and let
dry.
5. Apply one to two coats of paint for
desired finish.
Painting the Grille
For best results it is recommended that the
grille be painted with a spray applicator to
enable the paint to be evenly applied to
the inside edges of the grille’s perforations.
The following items are required to paint
the grille:
•
the grille (included)
•
replacement scrim cloth (included)
•
spray paint
•
paint thinner (and cloth)
•
rubbing alcohol (and cloth)
•
white or neutral color water-based
primer
