Introduction The new Gold GX Series is a completely ‘ground up’ design featuring advanced driver technologies and materials amalgamated to form a real world, yet truly esoteric speaker range. Our engineers set their sights high, by attempting to harness the amazing sonic characteristics demonstrated by the prestigious Platinum series. The GX focuses on honesty, there are no smoke and mirrors here, just meticulous attention to detail and passion at every step of the design process.
Unpacking Ensure there is plenty of clean floor area around where you are proposing to unpack the loudspeakers. Remove any lose components from the packaging (feet, bolts, plinths, etc) and invert the carton. Lift the carton up and remove the packaging end cap. Remove the tape from the bag(s)revealing the bottom of the cabinet(s). With the GX50 and GX100, stand the cabinets upright and remove the remaining packaging end cap and bag(s).
Bi-Wiring How it Works Port bungs Bi-wiring is accomplished via separate pairs of terminals on the loudspeaker. In the case of the GX Series, the bottom terminals connect to the bass driver(s) and the top terminals connect to the tweeter in 2 way loudspeakers, or the mid and tweeter in 3 way loudspeakers. The normal function of a loudspeaker crossover is to guide appropriate frequencies to the appropriate driver/tweeter.
Positioning AV Positioning The illustrations below show optimal positioning and various suggested room layouts for AV applications. For advice on configuring a 2 channel system, please refer to page 10. The front, and in some cases rear, floor standing and stand mounted speakers should ideally be positioned approximately 6 - 9 feet apart (1.8m - 2.5m) and a minimum of 10 inches (25cm) from the wall.
2 Channel Positioning Setting up the GX-FX When arranging a 2 channel system, the listening position and the loudspeakers should form an equilateral triangle. The speakers should be positioned approximately 6 - 10 feet (1.8 - 3m) apart. The ideal distance from the rear wall varies depending on the speaker (see list below), however, they need to be a minimum of 3 feet (91cm) from the side walls.
