To pivot the Sonic Eye:
Apply light pressure to the tweeter ring and the outside edge of the midrange,
as shown below in Illustration 6. Do not apply pressure to the midrange cone
or the tweeter dome.
Tweeter and Midrange Level Controls
The V832
DR, V833DR and V834DR have a tweeter level control switch that lets
you boost or cut the tweeter’s level by 3dB. The V833
DR and V834DR also have
a midrange level control that lets you
boost or cut the midrange level by 3dB.
Once you have installed the speakers,
listen to a variety of music that you are
familiar with. If the music all tends to
sound too bright or dull, use the
Tweeter Control to compensate. If the
music all tends to have too much or
too little presence, use the Midrange
Control to compensate. If some
recordings sound dull or lack presence
and some sound bright and have too
much presence, the speaker is accu-
rately reproducing differences in the
recordings, and you should leave the
control in the middle (0dB) position.
