Connections

For optimal sound reproduction, we suggest that you choose a loudspeaker cable of high quality to connect your amplifier 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-amplification and bi-wiring

For those wishing to iprove their listening system further, it is possible to use a bi-amplification or bi-wiring.

A

With bi-amplification, interference between the woofers and other drivers is totally eliminated, as each one is driven by its own amplifier. It is compulsory to use identical amplifiers to conserve the uniformity of the loudspeaker.

To do this, remove the terminal jumpers and use two stereo amplifiers. 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 amplifier to feed the bass, and the second for the midrange and treble (see the diagram below).

B

Instead of two amplifiers, you can use a single amplifier if it is equipped with two sets of speakers A and B. Both sets should be selected. This is bi-wiring and not bi-amplification.

Positioning for stereo

When positioning your loudspeakers, apply the following rules:

• Avoid rooms with too much reverberation, such as tiled rooms without carpets or curtains.
• Your listening position should no be too close to the loudspeakers, leave a minimum of 2 m
• The distance between the speakers should be a minimum of 2 m for a good stereo effect.
• If possible, place the speakers so that sound is «diffused» lengthwise within the room.
• 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 contrariwire, a position far from the back wall reproduces a wide and deep sound image. Carry out several test positions to find the best room set-up.

Positioning for home-cinema

A typical home cinema installation includes :

①- Two main speakers, left and right
②- A centre speaker
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).

- The centre speaker should be placed along the line formed by the two main speakers.

- For home cinema setups a subwoofer is highly recommended in order to reproduce the special bass effets 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.

- 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 fixing it onto the wall.

You will find further instructions for configuring your installation in your A/V amplifier owner's manual.
