• The surrounding environment for the speakers affects bass quality. Placing the
speakers closer to the wall behind them or to the side walls will result in an
abundance of bass, but placing them too close will result in dull bass. On the
other hand, too much distance will reduce the bass output but result in fast and
sharp bass. The low-frequency alignment feature enables placing the speakers
near (or even in) a corner without producing an overabundance of bass. This
corner placement allows optimal performance, even in small rooms. Find the
most suitable location by using various source materials.
• The floor at the location selected for setting the K2 S9900 speakers must be
capable of supporting a load of 180 pounds. Because of the coupling effect of
the stainless-steel feet, a flat, hard surface such as wood or linoleum is
preferable. However, the design of the loudspeakers’ coupling system, along
with the speakers’ substantial weight, should result in excellent performance
on any surface, even on carpets. To prevent indentations on wood or linoleum
floors caused by the weight of the loudspeakers, always utilize the enclosed
coasters. Be sure to use the coasters on tile surfaces to prevent cracking.
