Setup
Setting up the RHEA II is easy and can be done in two different ways:
-
The subwoofer can be positioned in a corner of the room (1.A)
-
The subwoofer can be positioned alongside a wall (1.B and 1.C)
The RHEA II should be placed in the area of the room opposite the listening seat. Both set-ups are
equivalent in acoustic terms, however, in critical rooms (such as rooms with large reflective surfaces
made of concrete or glass, sparsely furnished or square rooms), we recommend that you place the
subwoofer alongside a wall according to set-up 1.B or 1.C.
Make sure you follow the recommendations for correct positioning provided in the chapter “Safety
Instructions” at the beginning of the manual.
Before you decide on the final position, you need to thread the four spikes included in the delivery
into the inserts mounted at the bottom of the RHEA II and screw them in. Now place the subwoofer
on its four spikes. Adjust the subwoofer by rotating the spikes until they are firmly set on the ground
and the RHEA II is level and stable. In a next step, tighten the lock nuts included in the delivery onto
the spikes.
The same instructions apply if two RHEA II need to be positioned. However if this is the case we
recommend that you align both subwoofers symmetrically along an imaginary axis extending from
the listening seat to the central point between the two loudspeakers.
We recommend that you keep the boxes and packaging material and set them aside for later use.
