5. PLACEMENT As a starting point we suggest you initially position the R 909s 3 feet from the back wall and 4 feet from the side wall Angling the speakers 10 degrees to the back wall will reflect the generated sound off your back and side walls which will give you the acoustic impression of a much larger room Also remember that a dipole speaker emits virtually no sound from the side You can take advantage of this trait to cancel reflections from the side wall by varying the toe in angle pe Jano 7 8 Jano LISTENING POSITION To find the best listening position place yourself at a 30 degree angle from each speaker Doing so means that you will be seated at about the same distance away from the speakers as the actual gap between them The benefit of this is that the direct radiating sounds from each speaker will cross each other at a point behind you IFYOUR ROOM a doesn t allow you to get the speakers the required distance from the back and side walls or b has highly reflective surfaces ie glass windows or bare plastered walls or c still doesn t sound quite right we strongly recommend that you damp your room critical surfaces This can be done by the simple expedient of adding curtains furniture bookshelves and so on A damped surface is almost always preferable to a hard reflective surface SPIKES After the initial placement of the speaker
6. s it s now time to screw in the spikes Be cause of the weight of the R 909 we recommend that you gently lay it on one side and screw in all four spikes together Before you do this however be sure to place a couple of thick towels or similar underneath the side of the speaker This will pre vent accidental scratching to the surface of the R 909 and equally importantly will avoid you putting a rather large dent in your floor After screwing in the spikes we recommend you fit them with the hard rubber feet and the indented metal washers we ve supplied These will spare the floor from damage and allow you to gently bring the speaker to its vertical position Once upright simply adjust the spikes to give optimal support Floor surfaces vary considerably so we have given you 3 different choices when it comes to spiking options You can keep the hard rubber feet on the spikes rest the spikes on the four indented metal washers or place the spikes directly onto the floor Always choose the option that gives the most stability for your speakers in your domestic environment A A A 9 W gt 9 E Using the spikes without the hard rubber feet or indented metal washers will give the very best support and sound guality If you want to spare your floor surface from being punctured however the rubber feet or indented metal washers are a good compromise Sonically there s really very little difference between them use whichever one suits yo
7. ur floor surface better A warning be careful when using the spikes with the indented metal washers you don t want to get your finger trapped between the two Whichever spiking option you choose avoid walking the speakers if you need to move them to a different position especially on hard wood floors Jano 9 10 Jano CONNECTING SINGLE WIRING For single wire connections the terminal jumpers should be attached as shown in the illustration AMPLIFIER 5 BI WIRING If you d like to use a bi wiring arrangement make sure you remove all the terminal jumpers before you connect up your loudspeaker cables AMPLIFIER BI AMPING In a bi amped system make sure you remove the terminal jumpers before con necting up your cables The top pair of terminals drive the tweeter while the pair underneath drive the bass and midrange units If you choose this option we recommend you use identical amplifiers for both ter minals AMPLIFIER 1 AMPLIFIER 2 FRONT AND BACK FABRIC COVERS The front fabric covers have been designed to have minimal influence on the sound quality However for critical listening we would advocate that you remove them The rear fabric covers have no influence on the sound quality It s entirely up to you and your aesthetic preference whether you have them on or not When removing and putting on the front and back cov ers however make sure you do so gently
