Instruction manual

Although in the case of the DM70 (due to its remarkable dispersion

characteristic) positioning is not as critical as with many conventional

loudspeaker systems, this system is quite a substantial piece of

furniture in its own right, and it is worthwhile taking care in siting the

loudspeakers in the most acceptable positions, both visually and

acoustically.

It will be found that the stereo image is preserved over a wide listen-

ing angle, and the satisfactory listening area larger in the case of the

DM70 than with most conventionally designed loudspeakers.

Example of sitings of a pair of DM70's and a pair of conventional

Loudspeakers are illustrated in figure 3.

A simple guide to siting.

1. It is suggested that in initial layout a flexible lead is used, and the

positions of the loudspeakers experimented with on familiar music

until a natural balance is obtained. Permanent installation may

then be undertaken after the exact positions have been decided.

2. Bass response within the bottom two octaves will vary with the

positions of the loudspeakers relative to any plane surfaces.

Minimum bass will occur in the unlikely event of the loudspeakers

being situated near the centre of a room. Conversely, maximum

bass response will result should the loudspeakers be tightly

"coupled" to the corners of the room.
