97.2 LEKTOR 6/8/SUBthe speakers are designed to stand on the loor. LEKtOR 6 and 8 can be used with spikes (Metric M8 thread), or rubber bumpers under the speakers, see Figure 2A/3. Be careful not to over tighten the locking nuts. Spikes or rubber bumpers can improve the sound quality. You can try both to hear what gives the best sound quality in your setup. please be aware, that spikes may damage the loor, if it is not protected by e.g. coins under the spikes.8.0 MAGNETIC SHIELDINGthe speaker drive units produce a magnetic ield which may interfere with cR t televisions/ monitors, hard drives, audio and video tapes as well as swipe cards etc. therefore keep such items away from the speakers to avoid damage.9.0 POSITIONINGto achieve the best results, the loudspeaker setup should be symmetrical round your favorite listening position (except for LEKtOR SuB), see Figure 4A - c. We recommend that you experiment with the position of your loudspeakers – the sound quality will change depending on the loudspeaker position. For LEKtOR 1/2/3/LcR, the speakers should ideally be positioned, so that the height of the tweeter is approximately at ear height when seated in your favorite listening position. LEKtOR 6, 8 and SuB are designed as loor standing speakers. they should be positioned minimum10 – 20 cm (4 – 8”) from the rear wall. Ideally LEKtOR 1/2/LcR are designed to be positioned lat up against the wall. LEKtOR 3 is designed for both stand mounting and on-wall positioning lat up against the wall.Objects positioned between the speaker and listening position might negatively affect sound quality. the speakers are designed to meet our wide dispersion principle, so they should not be angled towards the listening position, but be positioned parallel with the rear wall, see Figure 4D. By parallel positioning, the distortion in the main listening area will be lowered and the room integration will be better. the wide dispersion principle will also ensure that sound is spreadevenly within a large area in the listening room.Every room has its own distinctive acoustics, which inluence the way we experience sound from a speaker. the sound you hear consists of direct sound from the speakers and relected sound from the loor, ceiling and walls. the latter will affect how you experience the sound.As a basic rule, try to avoid large, hard and relective areas in the immediate vicinity of your loudspeakers as it will typically cause strong relections, which might disturb the precision and spatial effect of the sound reproduction. Relection might be suppressed by positioning e.g. a plant between the speaker and the relecting surface. Soft items such as carpets, curtains etc. might help if the sound is too bright.Both the amount and quality of the deep bass depend on the size and shape of the room, and the position of the speakers. p ositioning the speakers near a side or back wall will accentuate the bass. A corner location will accentuate it even more, but will also increase the relections.
