CAUTION | EXCESSIVE BRIGHTNESS |
Direct sunlight or excessive brightness can affect the color of any natural wood veneer (the structural integrity of the cabinet will not be affected).
X To maintain the aesthetic quality of the loudspeakers for the long term, placing such in very warm, very cold, or very humid environments should be avoided.

| Every room will have its own particular sound characteristics. Any room is also shaped |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| and decorated uniquely, and therefore remains independent regarding options for |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| positioning loudspeakers. The following steps are general suggestions that will make the |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| correct positioning easier to achieve. |

| same (B). Try to achieve an isosceles triangle. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| • The distance between the loudspeakers should be the same or better slightly less |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| than the distance between each loudspeakers and your listening position (A, B). |
|
| B | B | • The closer the listening position is in relation to the loudspeakers, the closer the | ||||||
|
| speakers can be positioned to each other. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (As a starting point, it is recommended that the speakers be about 2 meters apart |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| from each other for the best results (A).) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| • If the speakers are positioned too close to each other, the stereo image will not seem |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| realistic; if that distance is too wide, the image may leave an acoustic hole in the |
