SOUND SETTINGS

ROOM TUNING - MECHANICAL 

ADJUSTMENT OF THE 

BOUNDARY FREQUENCY 

By using the supplied bass plug in the bass reflex port, you can alter the lower 

boundary frequency on the Master M2

Closed port 

With the full bass plug mounted in the bass reflex port, the cabinet is closed and 

the loudspeaker operates as a closed construction. This yields a more ”tight” 

bass reproduction and smoother roll off.

Bass reflex, low

With the low resonance bass plug mounted in the bass reflex port, the cabinet is 

a bass reflex construction. The low frequency resonance is at it its lowest point 

with a flat bass reproduction.

Bass reflex 

With no plug present in the port you have a higher bass level and more alert 

bass reproduction. The bass is not as deep as the bass reflex, low mode.

These settings also depend 
on the size and shape of 
the room, and also on your 
own taste, so please have 
patience when trying out your 
preferred setting.

BINDING POST / BI-WIRING

1.  Upper  terminal  +  lower  terminal  (loops  present)  -  Default  setting,  the 

loudspeaker  is  fed  with  the  entire  frequency  range.  In  this  mode,  it  doesn’t 

matter which connectors you use when connecting the speaker cables.

Without the loop between upper and lower terminal:

2. Upper terminal. The signal is only fed to the tweeter. 

3. Lower terminal. Now the signal is fed to the woofer only. 

PLEASE NOTE!! When the loops 
are connected, ensure that 
all four contacts are properly 
fastened so that the loops 
connectors are stuck -if the 
loop falls of, it may short-
circuit between the + and - 
contact and thus damage the 
amplifier.
