Section 3.6—Adjusting the Alexx’s XLF port
Choosing a Port Configuration:
Based on the measured bass response of the two different port config-
urations, our experience suggests the following configurations as a starting
point: For inherently lossy and lean rooms, which are thus in need of additional
deep bass extension, the rear firing port configuration is recommended as a
starting place for your room. If mid to upper bass is lean in your installation, the
forward firing port configuration is probably ideal.
If your installation requires the Alexx to be installed close to the rear wall
behind the speakers, start by installing the port in its front-firing configuration
first so as to avoid potential bass overload in your room. However, if another
loudspeaker has already proven to be too lean in this same location, start with
the Alexx’s port in the rear firing configuration.
In systems where the Alexx is replacing a MAXX, Alexia or other rear-firing
bass port system, it is generally recommended that the rear-firing port configu-
ration be initially installed.
Because there are a vast number of acoustical environments into which
the Alexx is installed, it is impossible to give absolute instructions for every
given room. Each Alexx should be evaluated in its environment, and a determi-
nation made from there.
