Positioning 

EUPHONIA RS3

The 

Euphonia RS3

 is suspended on the rear or side wall 

using the enclosed fi ttings, which allow horizontal 

and vertical angling of the 

RS3

. It is important to 

angle  the  tweeter  module  towards  the  listening 
position  to  ensure  the  widest  possible  frequency 
range.

Positioning 

EUPHONIA AS2

Adjustment  options  make  it  possible  to  integrate  the 

AS2

  even  when  it  is 

located somewhere other than centrally between the two front speakers. The 
best location, however, will always be with the 

AS2

 positioned together with 

(under) the 

CS4

 central speaker, if this is possible.

Positioning 

EUPHONIA CS4

Set up the 

CS4

 on the dedicated base and tilt the speaker front towards the 

listening position due to the vertically directional treble sound. Wave-lenghts 
are very short in the highest frequency range, and a slightly mis-adjusted angle 
can reduce the experience of genuine airiness in the reproduction. Maintain a 
minimum distance of 10 cm/4 inch to the back wall so that the bass refl ex ports 
on the rear of the unit function optimally.
