Krix Tryptix - Manual (Page 4)

positioning
Note for CRT users:
The Krix Tryptix has been designed
for use with fl at screen plasma and
LCD displays which are not affected
by magnetic interference. As a guide,
magnetically sensitive equipment (such
as CRT televisions) should be positioned
at least 200mm clear of the speakers to
avoid magnetic interference.
mounting options
The Krix Tryptix has been designed to provide
maximum versatility by allowing installation
on either a wall or a stand. A combination of
wall mounting, table stands and fl oor stands
may be used to allow the discreet installation
of stereo, surround or multiroom sound setups
(fi gures 2-5). The Tryptix’s shallow depth has
been developed to complement current fl at
screen technology without any compromise in
performance. Special brackets (patent pending)
have been designed to conceal the wiring and
present a neat appearence
.
front left and right speakers
Obtaining the best position for your speakers
may require some experimentation. As a
guide, the placement of left and right speakers
used for two-channel stereo should form an
equilateral triangle with the primary listening
position. In many situations room layout
and speaker mounting may require the front
speakers to be positioned closer together than
this recommendation. Excellent results are
often achieved in these situations. It must be
noted however, that placing front speakers
too close together can result in the sound
becoming monophonic and lacking depth.
centre channel speaker
Position the centre channel speaker above
or below your television. Ideally the centre
channel speaker should aim at ear level when
seated.
The Tryptix table stand allows free standing
horizontal centre channel placement (fi gure 5).
A Tryptix centre channel may also be used
without a stand and placed directly on any fl at
surface (fi gure 4). The silicon pads provided
may be attached at suitable locations on the
speaker to ensure the speaker sits securely
and the paint fi nish is protected.
rear speakers
Rear speakers (for home theatre) should be
placed to each side and/or behind the listener.
Exact positioning will be dependant on your
room layout and the number of surround/rear
speakers in your system (e.g 5.1, 6.1, 7.1 and
beyond).
subwoofer
If a subwoofer is to be used, please refer
to your subwoofer manual for suggested
subwoofer placement.
