Surround Speaker

When using the speakers as sur- round speakers, you will want to locate the speakers on opposite sides of the room, located parallel with or behind the listening area.

Once each of the speakers is installed, the speaker can be fine-tuned by rotating the tweeter island and switching between direct and diffuse modes. (VSi H470T2 only)

We have provided placement options for six of the most common installation scenarios. The diagrams note location, tweeter island location, and which mode (direct or diffuse) is used.

Direct/Diffuse Operation

When using the VSi H470T2 as a surround speaker, it can be config- ured in either direct or diffuse mode. In direct mode, the speaker has an even dispersion pattern in all directions. In diffuse mode, a null is created under the speaker along the axis depicted in the diagram below.

Altavoz ambiental

Cuando utilice los altavoces T2 como altavoces ambientales, deseará colocarlos en el lado opuesto de la habitación, en parale- lo con o detrás de la zona de audi- ción.

Una vez instalado el altavoz T2, puede realizarse un ajuste preciso girando la isla del altavoz de agudos y cambiando entre los modos direc- to y difuso. (VSi H470T2 only)

Hemos incluido opciones de colo- cación para seis de los escenarios de instalación más comunes. Los cro- quis indican la colocación, la situación de la isla del altavoz de agudos y el modo (directo o difuso) usado.

Funcionamiento directo/ difuso

Cuando use el VSi H470T2 como altavoz ambiental, puede configu- rarse en modo directo o difuso. En modo directo, el altavoz tiene un modelo de dispersión uniforme en todas las direcciones. En modo difu- so, se crea un nulo bajo el altavoz a lo largo del eje, que se describe en el croquis siguiente.

Enceinte Surround

Lorsque vous allez utiliser les enceintes T2 en tant qu’enceintes Surround, vous devriez les placer aux côtés opposés de la pièce, der- rière ou en parallèle avec la zone d’écoute.

Une fois l’enceinte T2 installée, vous pouvez procéder au réglage fin en pivotant l’îlot des tweeters et en alternant entre les modes direct et diffusion. (VSi H470T2 only)

Nous avons fourni des options d’emplacement pour six des scénarios d’installation les plus communs. Les diagrammes mon- trent l’emplacement, l’orientation de l’îlot des tweeters et quel mode (direct ou diffusion) utiliser.

Fonctionnement Direct / Diffusion

Lorsque vous utilisez la VSi H470T2 en tant qu’enceinte Surround, vous pouvez la configurer en mode direct ou diffusion. En mode direct, l’enceinte à un motif de dispersion uniforme dans toutes les directions. En mode diffusion, un « zéro » est créé sous l’enceinte, le long de l’axe indiqué dans le dia- gramme ci-dessous.

Surround-Lautsprecher

Bei der Verwendung von T2- Lautsprechern als Surround-Laut- sprecher sollten sie auf der gegenüber liegenden Seite des Raums installiert werden, parallel zu oder hinter dem Hörbereich.

Sobald der Lautsprecher installiert ist, kann der T2-Lautsprecher fein eingestellt werden, indem man die Tweeter-Insel dreht und zwischen dem direkten und dem diffusen Modus umschaltet. (VSi H470T2 only)

Wir haben Optionen für sechs der gewöhnlichsten Installationsfälle angeben. In den Abbildungen sind die Installationsstellen, die Ein- stellung der Tweeter-Insel und der verwendete Modus (direkt oder dif- fus) angegeben.

Direkter/diffuser Betrieb

Verwendet man den VSi H470T2 als Surround-Lautsprecher, kann er entweder im direkten oder diffusen Modus betrieben werden. Im Direkt- modus strahlt der Lautsprecher gleichmäßig in alle Richtungen ab. Im diffusen Modus entsteht eine Null-Achse unter dem Lautsprecher, so wie sie in der Abbildung hier unten eingetragen ist.
