Fine Tuning - Paradigm MONITOR 7 Serie Mode D'emploi

FINE TUNING

Once you have your speakers positioned in the room and have set
speaker distances and calibrated speaker levels through your Audio/Video
Processor or A/V Receiver it's time for a little fine tuning.
Since Monitor Series 7 provide exceptional performance in a variety of
room settings, fine tuning is simply a matter of making slight adjustments
(if necessary) to their placement in the room.
Start with the front speakers and listen to familiar music in stereo. The
soundstage will be both wide and deep, but this can be tuned to your
personal preference by adjusting the toe-in (the amount the speakers
are turned toward the listening area). More toe-in will increase image
depth and localization, less toe-in will increase image width. Adjust the
toe-in in small increments, listening each time, until you achieve the
soundstage balance you prefer. Toe-in is not applicable to the other
speakers in your system since their position and sound distribution
pattern is fixed.
Fine tuning for center speakers is a matter of making volume level
adjustments that may be required for a particular multi-channel music
or movie program. If necessary, adjust your Audio/Video Processor's
or A/V Receiver's volume levels to ensure there is a cohesive overall
soundstage.
To fine tune surround/rear speakers, please follow the illustrations in the
earlier section.
To fine tune the subwoofer, please refer to the Owners Manual that was
included with your subwoofer.
