This
is
a
good
trick
for
increasing
bass
without
taxing
the
amplifier.
It
is
also
possible
to
make
a
system
sound
too
"muddy",
so
use
caution.
If
you
move
the
speaker
from
open
space
to
a
wall
,
bass
notes
will
increase
by
+
3d
B.
If
you
move
it
to
a 2
boundary
corner,
another
t3dB
...
and
another
t3dB
for
a
three
boundary
corner!
(see
diag.

High
frequencies
go
where
you
point
them
.
Simply
aim
the
center
axis
of
the
speaker
into
the
plane
slightly
above
the
listening
area.
The
go
o x
90
°
horns
of
the
Control
®
Contractor
Series
disperse
the
high
notes
by
45
°
off
axis
in
every
direction.
For
large
or
unusually
shaped
rooms,
divide
the
area
into
zones
and
let
the
horn
patterns
dictate
the
spacing
between
the
speakers
(see
diag
.

It
is
most
common,
easiest,
and
cheapest
to
run
wires
from
the
amp
to
a
speaker,
then
from
that
speaker
to
another
(see
diag.
6A).
•Home
Runs
-
If
you
desire
true
stereo
L & R
from
each
listening
position,
"home
runs"
are
best,
from
the
amplifier
directly
to
each
speaker
(see
diag.
68).
