Positioning
Mythos
Six as Rear/Side Surrounds
When used as rear or side surround speakers, Mythos Six may be
located on the side or behind the listeners. When used on the sides,
take care never to locate the speakers forward
of
the listeners. The
speakers may be placed at
or
above ear level.
If
the speakers are placed
on
the rear wall, it
is
suggested that they be positioned fairly wide apart
if
possible. (For instance,
if
there
is
a couch in the center
of
the rear wall
on which the listeners will sit, try to position the speakers wider apart
than the couch.)
Positioning
Mythos
Seven as a
Center
Channel
The Mythos Seven
is
designed for horizontal use and will normally
be used as a front or rear center channel speaker.
Of
course,
if
you have
a need for a horizontal Mythos for left and right main channel use or
surround use, the Mythos Seven
is
perfect for that also.
As a center channel, the Mythos Seven can be positioned either above
or below the
TV.
Of
course, it can be mounted on the wall, placed on a
shelf, or on top
of
the
TV
itself
if
the top
of
the
TV
is big enough and flat
enough to provide a safe mounting surface.
Mythos
Seven Vertical Angle
Adjustment
Your Mythos Seven has a simple built-in device which stabilizes it and
allows you to adjust the vertical angle when the system is placed on a flat
horizontal surface.
If
the foot is not screwed in, screw it into the threaded
hole on the bottom
of
the speaker. When you set the speaker down, the
speaker will lean back and rest on the foot. By varying how far you screw
in the foot, you can adjust the vertical angle
of
the speaker. We suggest
that you aim the speaker so that it points directly towards the height
of
the
listeners' ears.
Speaker Break-In
Your Mythos loudspeakers should sound good right out
of
the box;
however, an extended break-in period
of
20-40 hours
or
more
of
normal
playing is required to reach full performance capability. Break-in allows
the suspensions to work in and results in fuller bass, a more open
"blossoming" midrange and smoother high frequency reproduction.
