Adapt the loudspeakers to your room 

When a loudspeaker is placed 

in a corner, or close to a wall or 

ceiling, the bass level is boosted 

compared to the bass level 

achieved from a loud speaker 

placed in a more free-standing 

position. 

Use the POSITION switch to 

ensure that the bass level suits 

the placement of the loud-

speaker. The appropriate switch 

setting depends on the distance 

from the loud speaker to the 

walls, ceiling and corners of the 

room. 

Use the guidelines mentioned here,  

and the illustrations on the next 

two pages, when deciding which 

of the three POSITION switch 

settings to select – on each loud-

speaker. 

… Placed on a floor stand 

Use POSITION 1 if the loudspeaker 

is placed more than 50–70 cm (20–

28") from a side wall (inside the 

light grey zone). 

Use POSITION 3 if the loud speaker 

is placed closer to a side wall 

(inside the darkest grey zone). 

… Placed on the wall 

Use POSITION 1 if the loudspeaker 

is placed more than 50–70 cm (20–

28") from a side wall, and more 

than 50 cm (20") below the ceiling 

(inside the light grey zone). 

Use POSITION 2 if the loud speaker 

is placed less than 50 cm (20") 

below the ceiling (inside the darker 

grey zone). 

Use POSITION 3 if the loud speaker 

is placed inside the darkest grey 

zone. 

… Placed on the ceiling 

Use POSITION 1 if the loudspeaker 

is placed more than 50–70 cm (20–

28") from a side wall, and more 

than 50 cm (20") from the rear 

wall (inside the light grey zone). 

Use POSITION 2 if the loud speaker 

is placed less than 50 cm (20") 

from the rear wall (inside the 

darker grey zone). 

Use POSITION 3 if the loud speaker 

is placed inside the darkest grey 

zone. 

… Standing on a table 

Use POSITION 1 if the loudspeaker 

is placed more than 50–70 cm (20–

28") from a side wall, and more 

than 50 cm (20") from the rear 

wall (inside the light grey zone). 

Use POSITION 2 if the loud speaker 

is placed less than 50 cm (20") 

from the rear wall (inside the 

darker grey zone). 

Use POSITION 3 if the loud speaker 

is placed close to both the rear wall 

and

 a side wall (inside the darkest 

grey zone).
