TOE-IN / INCLINATION IN STEREO MODE

(See graphic 9)

The SOLO should be toed-in at first, so the speakers

are pointing directly to the listening position.

If the sound is too "direct" and too "forward

sounding" for your personal taste, you can "toe-

out" the speakers in small steps. In its extreme

you can even set up the speakers parallel to the

back wall. In this case we recommend a minimum

distance to the side walls of 5 feet (1,5m) to avoid

reflections from the side walls.

With the metal-base stand its is also possible to tilt

the speaker. So if you have a relatively high listening

position the speaker can be tilted backwards by

adjusting the feet or spikes.

> 2,00 m

Test the RLX placement! In this case the focus of

the tweeters are pointing to a position 1.5 feet

(50cm) in front of your actual listening seat. Voices

and solo-instruments will be nicely separated and

appear to come from a deeper soundstage. In

this case the stereo area is more focussed to the

listening position.

 When you change the position/angle of the

speakers, you should always first mark the

original position of the speaker on the floor

(e.g. with tape), so you can easily return to the

previous position.
