•Magnetically mounted, acoustically transparent grills – Made of a durable, non-reflective fabric, and held in place by powerful, felt capped magnets.

Custom Sound Tailoring Controls, ERT/ERM speakers

•Switchable tweeter level adjustment (ERT-8.3/ERM-6.3/ERM-6.2/ERM-1)

This switch provides a total range of 4dB of adjustment to the tweeter level with positions of 0dB, - 2dB, and +2dB. Begin in the 0dB (neutral) position. By switching to the +2db or -2db settings, you can create a brighter or warmer sound to compensate for room acoustics or personal preference.

•‘Extension’ adjustment (ERM-6.3 & ERT-8.3)

In addition to the tweeter level adjustment, ERT-8.3 and ERM-6.3 speakers have an ‘Extension’ control. On the ‘Low’ setting, a standard EQ curve is in effect with frequencies above 18kHz beginning to gently roll-off. On the ‘High’ setting, the frequencies above 18kHz are extended creating a brighter and ‘airy’ sound that may be used to counter room acoustics or personal preference.

•Switchable midrange level adjustment (ERT-8.3/ERM-6.3)

This switch provides a total range of 4dB of midrange adjustment with positions of 0dB, -2dB, and +2dB. Begin in the 0dB position. By switching to the +2db or -2db settings, you increase or decrease the midrange response to the smaller woofers.

•Switchable boundary effect compensation (ERT-8.3/ERM-6.3/ERM-6.2,ERM-1)

This is used to reduce the upper bass range of the speaker. If it is mounted close to a wall, inside a cabinet, or near a large piece of furniture or other ‘boundary’, the upper range of the bass (300- 500Hz) can become more prominent and create an unpleasant ‘booming’ sound. Flipping the switch to the ‘On’ position compensates for this condition by reducing 400Hz by about 10dB.

Selectable Bi-pole /Di-pole Selection Controls, ERD-1 speakers

Use these switches in combination to select whether the speaker will function as a left channel dipole, right channel dipole, or a bi-pole configuration in or out of polarity with either left or right channel orientation. Detailed description of Bi-pole/Dipole controls: page 11

Additional Features

•Dual speaker terminals for bi-amped operation in ERT-8.3 / ERM-6.3 / ERM-6.2 / ERM-1

•Milled terminal recess with integrated milled aluminum 6mm jack plate
