LISTENING POSITION
Your speakers should be placed approximately 
two to three feet from the front wall, the wall in 
front of the listening position, and about two feet 
from the side walls. Your sitting distance should 
be further than the distance between the speakers 
themselves. You are trying to attain the impression 
of good center imaging and stage width. 
There is no exact distance between speakers 
and listener, but there is a relationship. In long 
rooms, naturally, that relationship changes. The 
distance between the speakers will be far less 
than the distance from you to the speaker system. 
However, in a wide room, you will still find that 
if the distance from the listener to the speakers 
becomes smaller than the distance between the 
speakers themselves, the image will no longer 
focus in the center.
Now that you have positioned your speaker 
system, spend time listening. Wait to make an 
major changes in your initial setup for the next 
few days as the speaker system itself will change 
subtly in its sound. Over the first 72 hours of play 
the actual tonal quality will change slightly with 
deeper bass and more spacious highs resulting.  
After a few days of listening you can begin to 
make refinements and hear the differences.
THE WALL BEHIND THE LISTENER
Near-field reflections can also occur from your 
back wall (the wall behind the listening position). 
If your listening position is close to the back wall, 
these reflections can cause problems and confuse 
imaging quality. It is better for the wall behind you 
to be absorptive than to be reflective. If you have a 
hard back wall and your listening position is close 
to it, experiment with devices that will  absorb 
information (i.e. wall hangings and possibly even 
sound absorbing panels).
THE WALL BEHIND THE SPEAKERS
The front surface, the wall behind the speakers, 
should not be extremely hard or soft. A pane 
of glass will cause reflections, brightness and 
confused imaging. Curtains, drapery and objects 
such as bookshelves can be placed along  the 
wall to diffuse an overly reflective surface. A 
standard sheet rock or textured wall is generally 
an adequate surface if the rest of the room is not 
too bright and hard. Walls can also be too soft. 
If the entire front wall consists of heavy drapery, 
your system can sound dull. You may hear muted  
music with little ambience. Harder surfaces will 
actually help in this case. The front surface ideally 
should be one long wall without any doors or 
openings. If you have openings, the reflection 
and bass characteristics from each channel can 
be different. 
THE SIDE WALLS
A good rule of thumb is to have the side walls 
as far away from the speaker sides as possible. 
both speakers. Starting with one speaker, connect 
the right channel to the lower binding posts and 
the left channel to the upper binding posts. Repeat 
the same procedure for the other speaker. Connect 
the left preamplifier outputs to both inputs of the left 
channel amplifier and the right preamplifier outputs 
to both inputs of the right channel amplifier (Fig. 5).
ACTIVE BI-AMPLIFICATION
We do not recommend active bi-amplification. The 
internal crossover can not be bypassed. This con-
nection method seriously degrades performance.
