TR-5 S2 Loudspeaker
Manual
9
OPERATION
After all the connections to the loudspeakers have been made correctly, you can switch on
your amplifier(s). Always ensure that the volume setting is set at minimum before playing any
music through your loudspeakers.
Check if there is any audible ‘hum’ in the system by listening to the loudspeakers without
playing any music and gradually increase the volume. If there is any ‘hum’ or ‘buzz’ consult
your appointed Roksan retailer or distributor.
FINAL POSITIONING
NOTE:
Your loudspeakers will require at least 48 hours of continuous music programme at
reasonable volume to allow the various moving parts of the drive units and other component
to ‘run-in’. Once run-in, the bass will increase in definition, extension and speed and
articulation whilst the treble will sound more smooth and open.
When setting-up or testing your loudspeakers, choose music material that you are familiar
with sit in the central listening position.
Your TR-5 S2 loudspeakers will continue to improve in performance over the first few weeks
of use and you should fine-tune the sound over this period if so desired by altering the
positioning in small increments. The loudspeakers should begin to ‘disappear’ as you
approach the ideal position of the loudspeakers in your room. For best results keep
experimenting. This will increase your understanding of the way the loudspeakers interact
with your room and improve the performance of your entire audio system. A final adjustment
in levelling of the speaker stands/spikes should be carried out after the optimum position/
location of the speakers in the room is established.
NOTE:
For optimum performance it is recommended to use high quality cables such as
Roksan HDC-02S High Definition Speaker Cable (3mm² conductor area). Many speaker
cables such as the Roksan HDC-02S are directional. Please observe this directionality. DO
NOT use speaker cable with conductor size less than 16 AWG (1.3mm²). The binding posts
comfortably accept conductor sizes up to 12 AWG (3mm²).
LOUDSPEAKER STANDS
For optimum sonic performance it is necessary to locate each of the loudspeakers as rigidly
as possible on the speaker stands and the stands on the ground. Refer to the speaker stand
user manual for correct installation.
