Tweeter Array Optimization
The XLS320, XLS340, XLS360 and XCS350 Loudspeaker Systems incorporate a special feature in the Crossover Network for optimization of the sound coming from the five tweeter array, refer to figure 37. The three different settings in the
crossover network have to do with the physical location of the Loudspeaker in the Home Theater and/or Music System.
On the rear panel of the Loudspeaker System there is a recessed connection
plate with binding posts for connection of hookup cables. Adja- cent to the binding posts on the same re- cessed connection plate, are two rows of jacks with two McIn- tosh Jumpers already inserted, refer to figure
38.The default postion of the jumpers for the XLS320, XLS340, and
XLS360 Loudspeaker Systems, is RIGHT,
refer to figure 39. The XCS350’s default postion of the jumpers
is CENTER, refer to figure 40.
For the best sound performance, it is important to make sure the jumpers are set according to the Loudspeaker Sys- tem location in the room. Refer to the chart below for the correct Jumper positions; if necessary, remove the two jumpers and reinsert them for the Loudspeaker location.
