CONNECTIONS For optimal sound reproduction, we suggest that you choose a loudspeaker cable of high quality to connect your amplier to your TRIANGLE loudspeakers. You should use cables of the same length for the left and right channels and take special care to respect the + and - polarity for each channel. Don’t forget to strip the cables if it’s necessary. Bi-amplication and bi-wiring For those wishing to improve their listening system further, it is possible to use bi-amplication or bi-wiring. With bi-amplication, interference between the woofers and other drivers is totally eliminated, as each one is driven by its own amplier. It is compulsory to use identical ampliers to conserve the uniformity of the loudspeakers. To do this, remove the terminal jumpers and use two stereo ampliers. On the speakers, the upper terminals are the signal inputs for midrange and treble. The lower terminals are the signal inputs for bass. Use one amplier to feed the bass, and the second for the midrange and treble (see the diagram on the next page). Instead of two ampliers, you can use a single amplier if it is equipped with two sets of speakers A and B. Both sets should be selected. This is bi-wiring and not bi-amplication. For further informations concerning your system, please consult our website : http://trianglehi.com/

When positioning your loudspeakers, apply the following rules : Î Avoid rooms with too much reverberation, such as tiled rooms without carpets or curtains. Î Your listening position should no be too close to the loudspeakers, leave a minimum of 2 m Î The distance between the speakers should be a minimum of 2 m for a good stereo effect. Î If possible, place the speakers so that sound is «diffused» lengthwise within the room. Î Avoid placing the speaker in corners; they should be at least at 40 cm away from the back wall and at least 50 cm from the sidewalls. Generally, a position close to the rear wall increase the response in the low frequencies (and reduce the imaging) and contrariwise, a position far from the back wall reproduces a wide and deep sound image. Carry out several test positions to nd the best room set-up. >0.5m >0.5m >0.4m >2m >2m21

A typical home cinema installation includes:

1. Two main speakers, left and right

3. One or several subwoofers

4. Surround speakers (5.1 signal : 2 rear speakers, 6.1 signal : 3 rear speakers, 7.1 signal : 4 rear

speakers). To place the main speakers in the best position, follow the same rules as for a stereo installation (see previous page on stereo positioning). Î The center speaker should be placed along the line formed by the two main speakers. Î For home cinema setups a subwoofer is highly recommended in order to reproduce the special bass effects channel featured on supports such as DVD audio or video. The positioning of the subwoofer is not critical if you select a crossover frequency below 80 Hz. Above this frequency, it is better to move the subwoofer closer to the main speakers. The best position being in between the two main speakers. Ensure that it is not placed in the corner of the room to avoid creating unpleasant resonances. Î We recommend that you place the rear speakers at between 1.5 and 2 m of height. Their role is to reproduce surround sound. Ensure that you take into account the weigh of the speaker when xing it onto the wall. You will nd further instructions for conguring your installation in your A/V amplier owner’s manual.
