STEREO SETUP

The Eltax Vintage PWR 1959 loudspeakers have been designed to reproduce all
types of music as accurately as possible, provided that a few rules should be
followed to optimize performance and achieve a realistic sound image. Ideally,
the speakers should be placed symmetrically in front of the listening position to
form an equilateral triangle. The cabinets should be placed on the floor or on an
optional dedicated stand, at the same distance from the rear wall and from the
adjacent side surfaces.

In order to optimize the setup of the speakers in your listening room, we recom-
mend the following tests:
Above all, you should avoid positioning the loudspeakers in the corners of your
room. The result will be an artificial increase in the level of bass, masking the
speed and details of this range.

First, adjust the spacing of the two speakers in order to find the realistic balance
between a wide sound image (wide apart speakers) and a sound image respect-
ing the punctuality of the voices (close speakers).
Secondly, move the speakers away from the rear wall by steps of 10 cm to find
the balance between the depth of the sound image (far from the back wall) and
the level of the extreme low frequencies (close to the back wall).
Finally, adjust the loudspeakers orientation by turning them gradually toward the
center of the listening area. If you leave the speakers parallel, you may want to
bring them closer together, if you orient them more than 30°, you may increase
their spacing.
