The
CWT
1000-40
loudspeakers can easily be adjusted to suit the acoustic
qualities of the listening room, or to particular conditions and speaker
positions.
For example, it may well be necessary to reduce the bass range if the speakers
are set up close to a wall.
To facilitate these adjustments you will find three switches (marked
BASS
,
MID
and
TREBLE
) on the rear terminal of the speaker cabinet; each switch
has three positions:
+1.5 dB, LIN
and
-1.5 dB
.
BASS
If the loudspeakers are set up in a listening room a
considerable distance
from
the walls (> 1.5 m) we recommend setting the switch to +1.5 dB.
If the loudspeakers are set up in a listening room
close to the walls
, in our
experience the best results in terms of sound are obtained with the switch set
to 0 dB.
If the loudspeakers are set up in one
corner of the room
, the result can be
excessive bass emphasis. The -1.5 dB setting compensates for this effect.
MID / TREBLE
On the rear of each speaker you will also find two additional switches for
adjusting the treble and mid-range response to suit the listening room. The
default position for both switches is 0 dB.
These switches enable you to adjust the level by +/- 1.5 dB, and the
adjustment is designed to compensate for very „hard“ (highly reflective) or
very „soft“ (highly damped) rooms. For rooms which
tend to echo
, we
recommend the -1.5 dB setting.
In contrast, a lift of 1.5 dB may be helpful in rooms which
tend to
damp
sound down
.
Care and maintenance
Care of the loudspeakers
Always disconnect the loudspeakers from the mains supply before cleaning
them.
Never use powerful cleaning agents or solvent cleaners!
The surface of the loudspeaker cabinets should be cleaned simply by wiping
with a soft, dry cloth.
