Gryphon Trident II - Manual (Page 12)

Trident ll set-up
Unpacking
The Trident ll system arrives in 4 large and heavy wood crates.
The system will be set up by your dealers or Gryphon distribu-
tor. Do not attempt to unpack the system yourself .
We know the almost uncontrollable urge to get the system up
and listening, but the Trident ll is a complex system that requires
a predefined set-up by experts with special tools and severe da-
mage can be done to your investment – and back - if mistakes
are made.

􀂉 1 Trident ll Master cabinet
􀂉 1 Trident ll Slave cabinet
􀂉 1 display unit
􀂉 1 remote control
􀂉 1 Gryphon anniversary book and brochure

The differences between rooms are often bigger and more
profound than the differences between speakers. This is the
reason why a speaker with a great subjective review can di-
sappoint greatly when placed in another room. Often it is more
a test of how a certain speaker interacts with a certain room,
rather than the actual quality of the speaker.
In short, you listen to the combination of speaker and room.
In real life it is easier to buy a new speaker than to buy a new
room. Depending on the individual situation – is it a dedicated
sound room or is it a living room with other considerations to
take and respect – but acoustics can be greatly improved in
most rooms and can basically be divided into 2 directions –
absorption or diffusion.
a. Absorption is reducing the sound level at certain frequen-
cies.
