CASCADE SPEAKER SYSTEMS
PLACEMENT
Stereo
Before deciding where to place your Cascade speakers, survey your room
and think about placement, keeping the following points in mind and
using Figure 1 as a guide:
•
For best results,place the speakers 6' – 8' (1.5m – 2.5m) apart.
• Position each speaker so that the tweeter is approximately at ear level.
• Generally,bass output will increase as the speaker is moved closer to a
wall or corner.
• Refer to “Home Theater”if you also plan to use the speakers for home
theater reproduction.
Figure 1. Experiment with speaker placement to obtain the best
bass level and stereo imaging in your room.
Home Theater
For front-channel use,place one speaker on the left and another on the
right, along either side of the television monitor. Since the speakers are
m
agnetically shielded, you can place them near the TV without worrying
a
bout the magnetic field distorting the TV picture.
For surround-channel use, place speakers on bookshelves or stands
alongside the listening position. Final placement depends on room
a
coustics, availability of space and your listening preference
(Figures 2 and 3).
In 6- or 7-channel configurations, place the rear channel(s) behind the
listening position, as shown in Figures 2 and 3.
NOTE: An Infinity powered subwoofer will add impact and realism to both
music and film soundtracks. Contact your Infinity dealer for recommenda-
tions on subwoofer models for your application.
