This picture shows not actual measured curves. It is only intended to be used as an illustration on the different acoustic
characteristics in the lower frequencies.
Room Tuning -
Mechanical
adjustment of the
boundary frequency
By using the supplied bass plugs in the bass reflex
gates, you can alter the lower boundary frequency
on XTZ 99 W12.18 ICE
This makes it possible to alter the sonic
characteristics of the woofer. The picture below
shows 4 basic settings.
With 1 or 2 open reflex gates(bass-reflex) will
increase the efficiency so it can handle more sound
pressure than with 2 closed reflex gates(closed-box)
1st mode - no plugs in the reflex gates
No plugs in the gates will provide a "quick" bass
suitable for big rooms.
2nd mode - 2 bass plugs in the reflex gates
This will provide a neutral, even and controled bass
setting (Closed box)
3rd mode - 1 plug in the right reflex gate
One plug in the right gates will provide a "deep"
bass suitable for smaller rooms.
4rd mode - 1 plug in the left reflex gate
One plug in the left gates will provide a a “neutral"
bass character.
Since the sonic characteristics depends on
the room a whole range of external
factors, there exists no "standard" setting
for a neutral representation.
Room tuning will also have influence on
the efficiency you will have to adjust the
volume, frequency and High Pass in the
room tuning modes.
"Quick" bass explained:
By this we mean a bass with less deep bass
information. This might also be called
"hard", "attack", "tight", "punchy" etc.
