Toe-in: Optimizing the tweeter character:

 

You have chosen to setup using the “Regular” 
or the “Narrow Room” setup. By adjusting the 
toe-in the tweeter level and character can be 
optimized

t

I

n a “perfect” acoustic environment

 our 

speakers are designed to be listened to app 
20-25 degrees off axis, which corresponds 
to a normal setup with the speakers close to 
pointing straight. By using toe-in the tweeter 
will point more towards the listening position 
thereby increasing its level, as the highest level 
from the tweeter is obtained directly on axis.

t

In the Regular Setup

, with the tweeter 

axis pointing close to straight, use toe-in to 
increase the tweeter levels, and use toe-out to 
decrease the tweeter levels 

t

In the Narrow Room Setup

, The tweeter 

axis is toed-in to meet in front of the listening 
position. To increase the tweeter levels toe-out 
the speakers, and to decrease the tweeter 
levels toe-in the speakers. 

Please note

 that the increase/decrease in 

toe when using this solution is more critical 
compared to using the Regular setup, only a 
few degrees change of Toe will cause a great 
change in subjective tweeter level.
