This switch alters the tweeter’s output by – 1dB, – 0.5dB, 0dB, + 0.5dB, 
or + 1dB. 

This switch compensates for less-than-ideal loudspeaker placement 
near a wall, in an entertainment center, or in a room that “boosts” low 
frequencies.

 

t  Select “Normal” if the loudspeaker is located at least three feet 

(0.91m) from walls and other large objects.

 

t  Select “Boundary” if the loudspeaker is built into an entertainment 

center or shelving unit or if the loudspeaker is located less than 
about two feet (0.61m) from walls or other large objects.

 

t  You can fi ne-tune the low-frequency performance even further by 

experimenting with the Low-Frequency Compensation adjustment 
along with the supplied port plugs.

These gold-plated terminals provide connections from the power 
amplifi er(s). 

The F208 has one pair of high-frequency and one pair of low-frequency 
binding posts that come from the factory connected by a pair of shorting 
straps (see below). The two sets of binding posts can be confi gured for 
single-wired, bi-wired, or bi-amped connections. Refer to the Making 
Connections section on page 7 for additional information.

Two gold-plated shorting straps that confi gure the loudspeaker for 
single-wired connections are installed at the factory. The shorting straps 
must be removed when the binding posts are re-confi gured for bi-wired 
or bi-amped connections. Refer to the Making Connections section on 
page 7 for additional information.

Loudspeaker fi delity depends on the following three factors: loudspeaker 
accuracy, loudspeaker placement and listening room acoustics.

Advanced Revel design features allow the F208 and F206 to achieve 
exceptional acoustical precision. As a result, experimenting with 
loudspeaker placement and listening room acoustics will have the most 
signifi cant impact on the loudspeakers’ performance.

The following are important loudspeaker placement considerations for 
the F208 and F206:

 

t  Remove all obstructions between the loudspeaker and the 

primary listening position. For instance, a coffee table between 
the loudspeaker and the primary listening position will create 
refl ections that will degrade stereo imaging and timbre. Placing 
the loudspeakers near large objects may also cause unwanted 
refl ections.

 

t  For the best stereo imaging, place the loudspeakers so that they are 

both the same distance from the primary listening position and so 
they are both the same distance from the side walls, as shown in 
the illustration at the top of the next column.

Primary Listening Position

 

t  For optimal stereo imaging and timbre, aim the loudspeakers 

directly toward the primary listening position as shown in the 
illustration above. If you wish to widen the stereo soundstage 
you can reduce this toe-in angle, even to the point at which the 
loudspeakers are pointing straight forward.

 

t  Moving the loudspeakers farther from the front and side listening 

room walls will improve stereo imaging and the sense of 
spaciousness in the listening space.

 

t  Moving the loudspeakers closer to the corners or walls of the 

listening room will increase bass level.
