MAKING ADJUSTMENTS

The LCi Series features technology that can tailor the sound for performance in difficult or unusual placement situtations.

LC265i, LC65i, LC80i & LC60i MODEL ADJUSTMENTS:

Wall Distance Toggle

In-wall loudspeakers excel when placed more than 2' (60cm) from side walls. If position limitations demand that in-wall loud- speakers be installed closer than 2' (60cm) from side walls, the proximity of the surface can result in a response “bump” bet- ween 50 and 200Hz. This can cause in-wall speakers to sound “boomy.” The Distance Toggle Switch flattens response and tunes out “boominess” without sacrificing deep bass response, for more lifelike sound.

-3dB Tweeter Attenuation

If your listening room is very reflective, with smooth sheet- rock walls, hardwood floors, and non-cushioned furniture, the sound will be overly “bright” and unnatural. Engaging the LCi Tweeter Attenuation feature (by selecting the “Cut” setting) compensates for the effect of reflectivity in a hard room. Tweeter Attenuation flattens room response without hinder- ing higher frequency response, for warmer, more realistic sound and more accurate imaging.

FIGURE 5

If placement is closer than 2' to a wall, engage the Wall Distance Toggle (“Wall Dist.”) to match the <2' setting.

En cas de positionnement à moins de 5 cm (2 pouces) du mur, mettre le commutateur de distance par rapport au mur (“Wall Dist.”) dans la position <2’.

Si el altavoz queda a menos de 61 cm (2 pies) de la pared, fije el interruptor basculante de distancia a la pared (“Wall Dist.”) en la posición <2’.

Wenn der Wandabstand weniger als 60 cm (2 Fuß) beträgt, schalten Sie den Wandabstandsschalter (“Wall Dist.”) ein, um mit der Einstellung <2’. übereinzustimmen.

AJUSTEMENTS

La Série LCi est dotée d’une technologie qui vous permet d’ajuster la configuration électro-acoustique des haut-parleurs lorsqu'ils sont installés dans des endroits particuliers ou difficiles.

AJUSTEMENTS des modèles LC265i, LC65i, LC80i et LC60i:

Commutateur «distance du mur» (Wall dist.)

Les haut-parleurs encastrés atteignent leur rendement optimal lorsqu’installés à plus de 60 cm (2 pi) des murs latéraux. Si la dis- position de votre pièce vous contraint à les installer à moins de 60 cm des murs latéraux, l’effet de proximité pourrait provoquer une crête indésirable de fréquences entre 50 et 200 Hz et créer un effet de ronflement. Le commutateur «distance du mur» (Wall dist.) compense l’effet de proximité sans affecter la profondeur des graves. Le résultat est un son plus équilibré, plus naturel.

Atténuateur 3dB du tweete

Si les surfaces de votre salle d’écoute sont très réfléchissantes (murs en placoplâtre, planchers de bois franc, meubles non capi- tonnés...), le son pourrait vous sembler trop aigu. L’atténuateur du tweeter LCi (en position «cut») permet de compenser les car- actéristiques réfléchissantes de la pièce en réduisant le niveau du tweeter sans affecter sa réponse en fréquences. Le résultat est un son plus chaleureux, plus réaliste avec une image direc- tionnelle plus précise.
