Aiming the Tweeter

To aim the tweeter, first install the speaker in the desired location. Gently push the tweeter in the direction you wish to point it [figure 12a & 12b]. For rear/surround speakers, aim the tweeter toward the nearest reflecting surface (an adjacent wall or ceiling) for a more diffuse sound field (if you want a more direct sound, aim the tweeters at your listening position).

Environmental EQ

If your listening room has smooth sheetrock walls, hardwood floors, and non-cushioned furniture, the sound will be overly “bright” and unnatural. Engaging the Environmental EQ feature [figure 13] (by selecting the “–” setting) compensates for the effect of overly loud tre- ble. If your room is has a lot of absorbing surfaces such as over-stuffed furniture, heavy drapes and rugs such that the speakers sound “dull,” engage the “+” setting to boost treble response. Leave the switch in the center position in rooms with a balance of reflecting and absorbing sur- faces (most rooms fall into this category).
