Levelling
All components in the Klimax loudspeaker system benefit from levelling which produces
distinct improvements in soundstage and accuracy. A properly levelled loudspeaker will
always perform more effectively than an unstable one; the actual loudspeaker cabinet
can remain fixed whilst the drive units are allowed to move as precisely determined by
the playback signal from the amplifier. Adjustable spikes or feet enable levelling on
uneven floors, however these adjustments are subtle and will not compensate for
excessively irregular floors.
The procedure for levelling each loudspeaker should be as follows:
•
Very carefully (do not scratch the cabinet), use a spirit level to check if it is sitting
level. If it is, gently rock the loudspeaker from front to back, side to side and
diagonally to check for any movement. If none is present and the loudspeaker is
sitting level, no adjustment to the spikes is necessary.
Note:
In the case of Klimax 350 models, a reading can be taken by placing the spirit level
vertically against the front and sides.
•
If the loudspeaker is not level, or moves when you rock it, loosen the appropriate lock
nuts using the tool provided (1) and use a screwdriver to turn the spikes to adjust
their height. (2).
