2.3 Loudspeaker Controls

The two knobs at the top of the
plate on the back of the speaker
tailor the mid- and high-frequency
response of the G6.1e. They are
subtle controls, but they can make
a great difference in gaining that
last bit of additional performance
in tuning your speakers into the
room that you are using them in. They can turn your system from very
good to exceptional, so take the time to work through this process.

The top left knob marked T

WEETER

is a volume control for the front

tweeter. Turning this control clockwise will increase the level of the
tweeters. Use this control if you need a bit more treble, or to increase the
apparent space of the soundstage. Too high a tweeter level, and you
can feel that crashing cymbals are leaping out at you, and nylon stringed
guitars sound steely. Start with this control at the 12 o'clock position.
There is about a one dB range for this control.

The top right knob marked M

IDRANGE

is used to adjust the level of the

midrange. Start at the 12 o’clock position. Turning the control anti-
clockwise will make the midrange sound leaner, and turning it clockwise
will make the midrange sound fuller. A fuller midrange can also can
make the soundstage more forward. There is about a one and a half dB
range for this control.
