POSITIONING
BEFORE THE INITIAL START-UP OF YOUR SYSTEM, all components must be off.
Verify all connection patterns. Pay particular attention to the polarity of each connection : the
negative poles of the amplifier and loudspeaker together and the positive poles of the amplifier
and the loudspeaker together.
POSITIONING
The positioning of a loudspeaker is always a delicate exercise. This step has been simplified by the technology
applied during Magellan’s design phase. The wide sound dispersion of the loudspeaker (front and rear
midrange/treble) limits noise and reflection caused by the surrounding walls.
However, certain situations are to be avoided:
Avoid all rooms that are too reverberating, such as rooms with tiled flooring without carpeting and windows
without drapes or curtains.
Your listening zone must not be too close to the loudspeakers: minimum 2m. A minimum distance of 2m is also
recommended between the loudspeakers to guarantee an optimum quality stereo effect.
If possible, position the loudspeaker so that the sound is directed down the length of the room.
Avoid placing them in the corners of the room as this increases the possibility of resonance inherent to the
room and allow for a minimum space of 40cm between the wall and the loudspeaker.
The 2 following examples demonstrates the 2 extremes for the loudspeakers’ acceptance angle.
