Do not extend the spikes all the way to the end. They should only be 
screwed far enough down so that no part of the acoustic suspension 
touches the floor, or rests heavily on the carpet. Keep the part of the 
spikes protruding from the bottom of the suspension frame as short 
as possible. 
Tuning into the room 
There are no absolute rules concerning the speaker/room 
coupling, so do not be afraid to experiment with speaker 
placement for best results. Positioning the speakers within the 
room will significantly affect the quality of the bass.  
This is because of standing waves caused by bass modes in the 
room. Hence, you should experiment with asymmetric positioning 
in the room. Do not have your speakers the same distance from 
the side and front walls – try putting them closer to the left or the 
right wall. If the speakers are equidistance from side and front wall, 
you may find strange suck-outs at some frequencies. 
In some problematic rooms a resonance may develop at one or 
two frequencies that is unnatural to the music. By moving the 
speakers closer to the front/side wall or farther 
from the front/side 
wall, the resonance may be reduced at the listener’s position. 
The amount of hard and soft surfaces in your room will also affect 
the tonal balance of your loudspeakers. For example, with lots of 
very hard surfaces such as marble or granite floors, large picture 
windows, and concrete walls, you may find that the room is very 
bright and you will have to turn the tweeter control down 
significantly. 
On the other hand, large sofas and arm-chairs tend to absorb 
frequencies in the lower mid-range and mid-bass. When your 
room is full of furniture, you may find that you have to turn down 
the tweeter, midrange, and bass gain. 
Ultimately, an enjoyable and musical system is all about balance. 
You have a number of controls at hand with which to adjust the 
bass response, the low-pass filter frequency and woofer volume. 
You can also move the speakers closer together for better 
speaker-to-speaker mid-bass coupling, or further apart for less.
