Quick Set-Up Instructions
Remove the steel magnetic strip from the front of the speakers. If the fabric sticks to the diaphragm, use a high tack tape to gently pull the fabric loose from the diaphragm.
e .7 has exceptional phase characteristics that are accomplished without the use of compensation networks. To realize the optimum phasing, the .7 should be angled inward as shown in the diagrams below. (Do not place parallel to the front wall.) Tweeters on the inside will give a precise image for a single listener. For a large "sweet spot" and multiple listeners, place tweeters on the outside. Especially for tweeters on the inside, the speakers must be angled suciently inward as shown in the diagrams below so that the tweeter is not ahead in time.
Tweeter attenuation may be necessary for rooms with hard, reective walls. See Section 14 below.
