Placed inside your binding post cup in the back of your speaker, the standard tweeter switch setting (0dB)
is best for medium to large rooms with typical levels of acoustic damping (curtains, uphol- stered furniture, car- peting), or for small
rooms which are acoustically treated with panels and diffusers.
In rooms without acoustical treatments, and which have a significant per- centage of exposed and highly reflective surfaces (drywall, brick, glass), you may find the standard tweeter setting too ―bright‖ and accentuated. In such instances, try the attenuated tweeter setting, which mitigates some of the extreme high frequencies and will sound ―softer‖ as a result.
Evaluate the two modes using music which you know well. Ultimately your personal preference will dictate the optimal tweeter switch setting.
