Matching loudspeakers
and amplifiers
Each AIW26B loudspeaker unit has been
factory calibrated for optimum performance
with the RAM1 amplifier it is shipped
with. Never mix these matched amplifier-
loudspeaker systems in the installation
process. The matching units are marked with
the same ID number on the reflex port of the
AIW26B enclosure and the top panel of the
RAM1.
Loudspeaker placement
Genelec AIW26B loudspeakers are
equipped with Genelec’s proprietary
Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW). One
of the main characteristics of the DCW
technology is that the loudspeakers give
a very even and consistent frequency
response over a larger listening area than
conventional loudspeakers. A secondary
function of the DCW is to reduce the off-axis
radiated sound energy, thereby minimizing
the reflections from the side walls, floor and
ceiling. This results in a precise and stable
sound image
If the AIW26B loudspeakers are used in an
application where their capability for precise
sound imaging is needed, such as the front
channels of a Surround Sound system or
a Stereo system, we recommend that the
loudspeakers are placed as far as possible
from wall corners and other reflective
