LOUDSPEAKER SET INSTALLATION
Positioning the loudspeakers:
The Magnat Magnasphere speakers should, where possible, be set up without any obstructions and slightly inclined towards the
listening position.
In addition, the Magnasphere 33 shelf-top speakers should be positioned more or less at ear level (shelf, sideboard or the like).
In the ideal configuration the speakers and the listening position should form an equilateral triangle. When the left and right speakers
are the same distance from the listening position their sound arrives at the same time, resulting in a harmonious, natural music
reproduction.
There should be a clear line of sight between the loudspeakers and the listening position. Any sound-absorbing or reflecting obstacles
in the path will distort the sound.
Now configure the two loudspeakers using the switch at the rear (item 6) and select the same zone A, B or C for both speakers (rotary
switch item 9).
