OutBack Rock Speakers Owner’s Manual OB-R6G OB-R6F OB-R6W
Overview Introduction Russound introduces a unique line of outdoor speakers. These Rock Speakers are designed to look like natural outcroppings of rock instead of bulky aluminum and plastic speakers that detract from nature’s beauty. Russound Rock Speakers are a distinctive addition to your yard and blend into any landscape for a convenient and practical outdoor audio solution. The realistic rock speakers are offered in three styles to match your landscape: Gray Granite, Fieldstone and White Sandstone.
Installation Number of Speaker Pairs First, determine the size of the listening area, and identify any gathering areas where folks will sit or stand. The typical coverage area is 20 feet from the front of the speaker for normal listening levels. There should be a maximum of 20 feet between speakers for better stereo imaging. Too far away from each other creates an acoustic void when used for stereo. Monaural will not be affected to the same degree.
Rock Speaker Placement The Rock Speakers have been optimized to provide the best response when placed on the same elevation as the listening area and sitting flat on the ground. Tilting the speaker up can potentially create a problem with proper rainwater drainage also. Poor placement Optimum sound field Ideal placement Security Eyelet Use The Rock Speakers have a security eyelet on the bottom through which a security cable can be looped.
Rock Speaker Stereo Imaging The best stereo imaging can be achieved by placing rock speakers no closer than 20 feet next to one another. The sound propagation outward from the face of the speaker is ideal within a 20 to 30 foot range. The rock speakers can certainly cover larger areas but as the distance between adjacent speakers increases, the stereo imaging starts to deteriorate.
