WHAT - SPEAKER USAGE AND ENVIRONMENT

Before you decide where you want to install your Russound Advantage speakers, you’ll need to deter-

mine their intended use. Will you be sitting in one Figure 1 place listening to music or will you be playing back-

ground music during domestic and social activities? Once you’ve determined where you will be while you listen, you can decide where the preferred speaker location will be. Russound Advantage speakers have been designed to be suitable for most listening environments.

Advantage Series Iso-Mount technology provides superior performance by adding a proprietary ther- mopolymer isolation gasket between the frame and the baffle. This unique gasket dramatically reduces unwanted wall vibrations to increase the clarity, definition and accuracy of the sound produced. This makes the Iso-Mount speakers perfect for both serious listening and for background applica- tions. The adjustable tweeter pivots for fine adjust- ment of the speaker’s high frequency directivity, and the symmetrical frame permits the speaker baffle to be installed with the tweeter at the top or the bottom of the speaker. Ideally, the tweeter should be as close to ear level as possible when you’re seated in the prime listening position.
