Positioning and levelling
To get the best from your Linn AKURATE speakers, it is important that they are positioned and levelled correctly. The acoustics of a room are dependent on many factors including size, shape and even furniture.

Positioning
It pays dividends to experiment with loudspeaker positioning. However, the very nature of the
A loudspeaker placed too close to a wall will tend to affect bass definition creating a bass ‘bloom’, so a minimum of 9” (23 cm) is recommended between the back of a speaker and the closest wall. If lack of space is an issue, foam bungs are provided for insertion into the AKURATE 242 and 212 speakers’ rear reflex ports to seal the cabinets. This converts the speakers to an infinite baffle design and allows them to be placed closer to a wall. The AKURATE speaker system will work effectively in free space, but if bass extension is limited the AKURATE 242 and 225 speakers contain a Bass Boost feature to enhance the bass frequencies below 200 Hz (see Bass Boost section).
