Speakers with “mirrored” tweeter: MTS-01 and SCS-01

In any audio system, your room’s shape and the position of any speaker in that room, plus your own position, all affect the way sound which reaches your ears.

Sound bounces off of walls, or it can be absorbed by nearby furniture or floor coverings. Moving a speaker or subwoofer a few feet,

sometimes only inches can have subtle or even signifi- cant audible consequences, so experimentation is rec- ommended. Physical position in one’s room is perhaps the most obvious setup aspect you might vary.

A second placement aspect is ―toe‖ or pointing your speakers at least partially towards primary listeners. This technique can vary the sense of space and precise ―imaging‖ of sounds in your room.

With ―mirrored‖ speakers such as MTS-01’s, there is a third consideration: Tweeter location. One look at your speakers will indicate you have two op-

tions: ―tweeter in‖ or ―out‖.

Try both options. Side re-“Tweeters In” flections from walls, along

with ―toe‖ will serve to prompt subtle shifts in how

“Tweeters Out”

your soundstage is rendered. You might find no substantive difference in your sound with changes to placement, toe or tweeter orientation. Yet if you move to another room, changes can be striking. Take a moment to see which situation ap- plies in your room and contact your dealer if you have any questions about these versatile speakers.
