8	Adapt the loudspeaker to your room

When a loudspeaker is placed in a corner or close to a wall, the bass level is boosted compared to the bass level from a loudspeaker placed in a more free-standing position.

To remove this excessive bass boost, use the POSITION switch to ensure that the bass level suits the placement of the loudspeaker. The appropriate switch setting depends on the distance from the loudspeaker to the walls and corners of the room.

The POSITION switch

•F (Free-standing position)

Use this setting if the loudspeaker is placed so that the front grill is more than 50 cm (20") from the rear wall, for example on one of the ﬂoor or table stands.

•W (Wall position)

Use this setting if the loudspeaker is placed so that the front grill is less than 50 cm (20") from the rear wall.

Always use this setting if the loud- speaker is placed on any of the wall brackets, but also when placed on one of the stands – close to the rear wall.

If the loudspeaker is ﬁtted to one of the table stands – and you have chosen to place it on the ﬂoor – you should set the POSITION switch to W.
