Advanced Setup & Use
The orbitsound M9 is easy to set up and enjoy, but even better sound may be
achieved by following these guidelines.
Positioning - getting the most from spatial stereo
The spatial stereo sound field is produced by the speakers in the sides of the
soundbar. These special signals interact with the main signal (front) to produce true
stereo in your listening environment:
Spatial generation zones
IMPORTANT: The areas marked need to be clear of obstacles in order for the
spatial stereo sound field to work properly.
HINT: Because Orbitsound produces a uniform stereo sound field, the soundbar does
not need to be placed directly in front of the listener. Therefore, placing the soundbar
conveniently so that the sides are not obstructed is more important than central
placement, i.e. on low or high shelf, counter top, below/above TV
Subwoofer placement
Subwoofer placement does not affect the overall sound much. Position the
subwoofer after optimising placement of the soundbar.
HINT: The sound output from the subwoofer is omni directional, so this can be placed
anywhere. However, try to avoid placing the subwoofer too far from the soundbar as this
can cause a noticeable ‘separation’ effect. A good place is below or beside your TV. For
standalone operation, try the subwoofer on the floor, next to the shelf or table that the
M9 is on.
