GamuT RS3 - Manual (Page 10)

• After run in it is time to fine tune the performance
of your speakers.
• The positioning in the room, the toe-in and the
vertical tilt of the speakers are all elements that
lets you adjust the bass, midrange and treble and
optimize the dynamic and 3-dimensional size &
character of the recording room, instruments &
voices.
• The positioning in the room determines the Low
frequency character (Bass performance). In
general the bass output will increase by moving the
speaker closer to walls and less bass will be
achieved by moving the speaker away from walls.
The
El Superiores
are designed to work in normal
rooms so a position too far from walls will result in
the upper bass/lower mid being too low in level. A
position too close to walls will result in too much
upper bass and lower midrange overexadjurating
male voice and drums etc.
• Vertical Tilting of the speaker will adjust the
dynamic character of the speaker. A forward
vertical tilt of the speaker will cause the tweeter
signals to arrive earlier than the midrange signal. A
too bright and ”agressive” character will be the
result if tilted too far forward. If tilted too far
back, a too laid back and dull character will be the
result
• Toe-in adjusts the level of high frequencies (treble).
We have designed our speakers to be listened to at
an angle from 10-30 degrees off axis. Depending on
the acoustic character of your room the high
frequency level can be adjusted by simply turning
the speaker towards the listening position to
enhance the higher frequencies (treble), or you can
lower the high frequency content by turning the
speaker away from the listening position (pointing
closer to straight forward).
