[. . . ] Speakers placement The Chorus V loudspeakers have been engineered to deliver the most faithful sound reproduction, whether they are used for music or home cinema. In order to enhance their performance, to guarantee a high quality of listening, sound image and tone balance, it is important to note the following basic rules. The listening area must be located at the summit of an equilateral triangle whose two other points of insertion are determined by the position of each speaker. Nevertheless it is possible to modify these distances to find an ideal compromise according to the particular disposition of the room (fig. Each loudspeaker must be placed at the same height and on the same floor plan. The tweeter should be at the same height as the listener's ear, when the listener is in his usual listening area (fig. Surround and center speakers placement The soundtrack mix for a film or music encoded in multichannel format is very complex and allows the listener to benefit from a wide range of special sound effects, which require the use of effect channel speakers. In order to obtain a realistic 3D soundstage, the placement of the speakers is decisive, even when confronted with a restrictive disposition of the listening room. For enhanced performances, the following elements should be noted. Central channel speakers should be placed close to the TVscreen to obtain a proper placement and a realistic reproduction of the dialog (fig. They could be placed below or above the TV-screen if your TV-unit permits. If a standart projection screen is used, the central channel speaker must be placed under the screen. If an acoustically transparent projection screen is used, the central channel speaker can be placed behind and at the bottom of the screen. Avoid placing the effect speakers too far from the listening area otherwise the sound perception will be altered. In order to obtain surround effects, with great sound density we advise you to place the speakers against the sidewalls on each side of the listening room (fig. You can use IC 706 V as In Ceiling surround speakers (fig. Adjustment of tweeter To carry out adjustments, use the switch level located on the front baffle of the speaker as follows (fig.
