1. Running in (breaking in):
Running in (breaking in): Speakers are electro
mechanical devices. As any mechanical device
a speaker needs running in before it reaches its
optimum performance level. During the develop-
ment phase we have carefully aligned and trimmed
all components to have a perfect balance when
fully run in, so please allow for the speaker to have
a run in period of up to 200 Hours of music play-
ing and an ageing of minimum 6 months before
they reach their optimum performance. During the
run in period the final positioning of the speaker
cannot be determined as the bass character will
change. Please also allow time for the mid and
tweeter character to fall into place.
2. Advanced setup:
t
Positioning; Optimizing the Bass char-
acter & balance: Please go to the “Setting
Up” section to find the minimum distances to
walls etc. and choose your way of setting up:
“Regular” or
“The Narrow Room” setup
t
A room has standing modes of energy.
The most harmful modes are positioned in
multiplications of 1/2 fractions of the room
dimensions, I.e. the position where the room
length, width and height is divided with 2, 4, 8,
16 etc. The obvious solution is to avoid these
positions by positioning the speaker in un-
even fractions of the room dimensions.
t
The preferred divisions of room dimen-
sions are: 1/3, 2/7, 1/5 & 1/7 see the diagram
below.
