to a higher efficiency, it requires a higher setting of the subwoofer level. Conversely, when you switch to a lower efficiency, the subwoofer level should be set lower.

S-90 TREBLE CONTOUR SWITCH

The TREBLE CONTOUR switch gives you control of the upper midrange and treble frequencies when set to the HIGH or LOW positions. These carefully shaped contours control brightness to account for room conditions, other electronics, or the source material. It is more sophisticated than a simple tweeter level control.

The LOW position produces an attenuation of high frequencies, while the NORMAL position provides a slight rising characteristic of the high frequencies when measured on-axis. The MID position provides a flat on-axis response to beyond 20 KHz.

This control is useful not only to match your room environment and speaker location, but also because audio and audio/video program material varies widely in terms of high frequency level and distortion. For example, many recordings and film soundtracks have artificially boosted, excessive high frequencies that will be clearly reproduced by the exacting and extended high frequency reproduction of your M&K Satellites, and LOW TWEETER will help these recordings. Many absorptive, "dead" rooms seem to soak up high frequency energy and excitement, and in these cases, NORMAL should be used.

Don't hesitate to set this switch to NORMAL or LOW for fear of the sound not being "flat". Few recordings are
