7.0 fine tuning your audio system

Before beginning any fine-tuning, please ensure all connections are properly made and your speakers have had the chance to break-in for a minimum of 100 hours.

Also, it is assumed that you have already performed the initial placement of each speaker in your system and are now trying to fine tune the performance of your new speakers in your room. This will ensure the proper results are achieved.

HOW TO FINE-TUNE THE LOW FREQUENCY PERFORMANCE

If you find your system lacks bass, first check your connections to make sure your system is in phase, then experiment with placement. The further from the wall, the less overall bass output your system will have, but the bass will generally be better defined. If bass is too prominent, try moving the OMD-28 speakers further from the wall, or spacing them a little further apart from one another.

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

Your listening room is the final component of your audio system and will be the difference between mediocre sound and high quality sound. Reflections, which are a part of every recording and music playback, will have a major effect on your system's performance. If your room is too “live”, meaning there are many bare surfaces like glass windows, hard floors and thin furnishings, you might find the sound overly bright. If your room is “dead”, meaning there is thick pile carpeting, heavy furniture and a lot of wall coverings, you might find the sound lacks dynamic energy. To remedy these issues, small changes to your room should be considered as they generally lead to large improvements in sound quality. Most listening rooms must balance aesthetics and sound, but patience and small adjustments in positioning and settings can pay huge acoustic dividends. The lower bass frequencies are typically the most influenced by your listening room. If you find the bass in your room to be uneven or exaggerated in certain frequencies, experimenting with placement of the front speakers or their orientation towards the listening position can alleviate some of these issues. The proximity of the speakers to room boundaries, like walls, will also affect the bass frequencies.

NOTE: THE BASS PERFORMANCE WILL TIGHTEN UP SIGNIFICANTLY, ONCE THE ISOLATION FEET ARE INSTALLED TO THE OMD-28 FRONT SPEAKERS.
