3c. Positioning the PF14LCR speaker behind a projection screen
If you have an acoustically transparent screen, we recommend to install the loudspeakers a
third of the way down from the top of the screen. Use the middle of the speaker as a reference
point (middle of the tweeter). For this configuration, we recommend removing the grills from
the speakers.
III. STEREO SETUP
1. Position of the speakers FL/FR
The Prestige Facet loudspeakers have been designed to reproduce all types of music
as accurately as possible, provided that a few rules should be followed to optimize
performance and achieve a realistic sound image.
Ideally, the speakers should be placed symmetrically in front of the listening position to form
an equilateral triangle. The cabinets should be placed at the same height and the same
distance from the rear wall and the adjacent side surfaces.
In order to optimize the setup of the speakers in your listening room, we recommend the
following tests :
•Above all, you should avoid positioning the loudspeakers in the corners of your room. The
result will be an artificial increase in the level of bass, masking the speed and details of
this range.
•First, adjust the spacing of the two speakers in order to find the realistic balance between
a wide sound image (wide apart speakers) and a sound image respecting the punctuality
22
of the voices (close speakers).
•Secondly, move the speakers away from the rear wall by steps of 10 cm to find the
balance between the depth of the sound image (far from the back wall) and the level of
the extreme low frequencies (close to the back wall).
•Finally, adjust the loudspeakers orientation by turning them gradually toward the center
of the listening area. If you leave the speakers parallel, you may want to bring them closer
together, if you orient them more than 30°, you may increase their spacing.

2. Connections
ALL THE CONNECTIONS MUST BE MADE WITH THE EQUIPMENT TURNED OFF.
It is essential to connect the speakers using the correct polarity. Make sure to connect the
" + " terminal of the speaker (Red) to the " + " output terminal of the amplifier. Then, make
sure to connect the " - " terminal of the speaker (Black) to the " - " output terminal of the
amplifier. A wrong connection would cause a cribled stereo image and loss of bass. Use
high quality speaker cable. Elipson speakers are supplied configured for use in a single
wired mode or bi-wiring. Bi-amp is also possible (see page 31).
