a switch.  Likewise, they can be operated in either di-pole or mono-pole modes.  The default factory setting 
is mono-pole.  

In mono-pole mode, only the main driver and tweeter will be active.  In di-pole mode, the main tweeter is

Gold FX as part of a 7.1 channel system, with the Gold FX’s taking up positions on side and rear walls.  Please 
note, it is essential they are positioned correctly when used in a 7.1 channel system.  Please refer to the

Tweeter Attenuation Switch:

 This switch adjusts the level of the main high 

frequency tweeter unit. In the middle position, there is no attenuation. Placed 
in the ‘-’ position, the high frequencies will be attenuated by 3dB. Placed in the 
‘+’ position, the high frequencies will be boosted by 3dB.

Location Switch:

 This switch is used when determining the location of the Gold 

FX’s. Please refer to the illustrations on pages 7 & 8 for correct positioning.

Mono-pole/ Di-pole Switch: 

This switch determines the actual mode of 

the Gold FX. When part of 5.1 systems as a rear speaker, set the switch to 
mono-pole. Although there is nothing wrong with experimenting and trying 
the switch in the di-pole mode. If part of a 7.1 system as side speakers, set the 
switch to di-pole. If using 4 Gold FX’s (side and rear) set them all to di-pole 
mode. Please see the illustrations on pages 7 & 8 to determine the setting of 
the ‘Location Switch’ depending on system set up.

If you are using the 12v trigger, set the switch to monopole mode. The trigger 
will switch a relay to enable the di-pole mode.

12 volt Trigger:

is possible to customise the 12v trigger to switch the speakers to di-pole for 
certain sources.  For example, multi-channel music should be listened to in 
mono-pole mode, however, movies should be listened to in di-pole mode.  This 
feature automates the switching between the two modes.  Please refer to your
