4.1 Højttalerplacering

Korrekt placering af højttalere er afgørende for optimal lydkvalitet. Overvej følgende retningslinjer:

• Stereo opsætning: For a stereo listening experience, place the left and right speakers equidistant from your primary listening position, forming an equilateral triangle.
• Hjemmebiograf: In a home theater setup, position the front left and right tower speakers to flank your television or projection screen. Ensure they are at a similar height to your ears when seated.
• Afstand fra vægge: Experiment with placing speakers a few inches to a few feet away from walls. Proximity to walls can affect bass response.
• Toe-in: Slightly angle the speakers inward towards the listening position (toe-in) to fine-tune imaging and soundstage.

4.2 Tilslutning af højttalerne

The Monolith T4 Tower Speaker uses dual 5-way binding posts for connection to your amplifier eller modtager.

2. Tilslut til højttaler: Unscrew the binding post caps on the back of the speaker. Insert the bare wire into the hole in the post. Ensure the positive (+) terminal on the speaker (red) connects to the positive (+) terminal on your amplifier, and the negative (-) terminal on the speaker (black) connects to the negative (-) terminal on your amplifier. Tighten the caps securely.
3. Opret forbindelse til Amplifier/modtager: Repeat the process for connecting the other end of the speaker wire to the corresponding speaker output terminals on your amplifier eller modtager.
4. Bi-wiring/Bi-amping (valgfrit): The dual binding posts allow for bi-wiring or bi-amping. If not bi-wiring/bi-amping, ensure the metal jumpers connecting the upper and lower binding posts are in place.
