Toe-in of the overall cabinet as well as distance between the speakers can also
result in improvements in overall clarity and resolution. If there appears to be a
doubling or sluggishness to the center of the sound stage, try pulling the
speakers slightly further apart or aim the overall cabinet further away from the
listening position. If there is a vagueness to the soundstage or a lack of central
focus, it is possible that you will need to either move the speakers closer
together or angle-in the overall cabinet slightly more. As with rake, any
adjustments to the overall cabinet position will most likely result in having to
make further compensating adjustments to the Music Center.
3.5 Controls – The Music
The final step in proper setup of The Music is the adjustment of the three small
switches located above the speaker connection terminals at the rear of the
speaker. These three switches are labeled: M, UB, LB. These represent:
Midrange, Upper-Bass and Low-Bass. The flat or normal position for these
switches is in the lower position. These switches were designed to add a small
amount of correction specifically for addressing room acoustics. Since all rooms
have certain sonic properties, it is possible that the physical placement cannot
resolve all audible problems.
In order to add a small amount of additional upper-frequency energy, place the
M-switch to the upper position. This is particularly useful in an well-damped
listening rooms. In order to increase bass warmth, try moving the UB-switch to
the upper position. This can be quite helpful in larger listening rooms where the
speakers are unusually far from the rear wall. The final switch is the LB-switch.
The upper setting of the LB-switch allows for the greater bass content. In rooms
where the full extension and power of overall bass does not overpower the room
this position will result in the greatest power as well as resolution of extended or
lower bass. A secondary advantage to this position is the possibility of greater
air and focus around the upper frequencies and vocals.
While each of the switches has minimal effect, if special care has been taken in
the overall physical setup of the complete loudspeaker system, the results can
be profound. As with all of our other recommendations, always listen and trust
what you are hearing.
3.6 Controls – The Kiss and Poetry
The final step in proper setup of The Kiss and Poetry is the adjusting of the two
small switches located above the speaker connection terminals at the rear of the
speaker. These three switches are labeled: T and B. These represent Treble and
Bass. The flat or normal position for these switches is in the lower position. The
addition of these switches was intended to add a small amount of correction
specifically for addressing room acoustics. Since all rooms have certain sonic
properties, it is possible that the physical placement cannot resolve all audible
problems.
In order to add a small amount of additional upper-frequency energy, place the
T-switch to the upper position. This is particularly useful in well-damped listening
