4.2 Luidsprekerplasing

Optimale luidsprekerplasing is noodsaaklik om die beste klankgehalte te bereik. Oorweeg die volgende riglyne:

• Stereobeelding: Plaas die luidsprekers ewe ver van jou primêre luisterposisie en vorm 'n gelyksydige driehoek.
• Afstand vanaf mure: The 3030i speakers are designed to perform well when placed near a rear wall, but experimentation with distance (e.g., 10-30 cm) can optimize bass response.
• Hoogte: Position the tweeters at approximately ear level when seated in your listening position. This can be achieved using dedicated speaker stands or sturdy shelves.
• Toe-in: Slightly angle the speakers inwards towards the listening position to improve focus and soundstage.

4.3 Verbindings

Before connecting, ensure your amplifier is turned off and unplugged from the mains power supply.

1. Prepare Speaker Cables: Strip approximately 10-15mm of insulation from the ends of your speaker cables. Twist the bare wire strands tightly to prevent stray wires.
2. Koppel aan luidsprekers: Unscrew the binding posts on the back of each 3030i speaker. Insert the bare wire ends into the holes, ensuring the positive (+) terminal on the speaker connects to the positive (+) terminal of the amplifier, and the negative (-) terminal on the speaker connects to the negative (-) terminal of the amplifier. Tighten the binding posts firmly.
3. Koppel aan Amplewendiger: Repeat the process for connecting the other ends of the speaker cables to the corresponding speaker output terminals on your amplifier. Maintain correct polarity for both speakers.

Incorrect polarity will result in poor bass response and a compromised stereo image.
