FINAL SOUND 300i Loudspeaker Manual vs. 1.3 -US- c FS 2007RJ 6
.
What is the function of the Final Sound front and rear loudspeaker panels?
The Final Sound flat-panel front loudspeakers are the main channels in a stereo setting or a virtual
surround system and have a dual role in a home theatre system. The front and rear loudspeakers are
used to create ambient effects. In a home cinema setting even actions occurring at the back of the
listener will be reproduced. Both in a stereo configuration and a home theater configuration, the flat-
panel loudspeakers function in close harmony with the Final Sound
subwoofer.
Where do I place the Final Sound loudspeaker panels?
There is a difference between a left (front/rear) and a right (front/rear) Final
Sound loudspeaker panel. Each Final Sound loudspeaker panel is divided
with two vertical spacers in three segments. The narrow strips have to be
oriented to the inside. The difference is shown in the figure on this page.
To illustrate the best position for the loudspeaker panels we have to differentiate between Final Sound
Stereo and Final Sound Home Theatre configurations. Please note that electrostatics are dipoles, i.e.
the loudspeakers produce sound from both sides of the panels. This means an electrostatic
loudspeaker should always be placed away from the wall and turned under a slight angle with the wall
(not parallel with the wall).
Typical room layout
The figure represents a typical room set up for stereo and/or home theatre. The figure shows:
• The subwoofer’s preferred positions, depending on the panels you choose.
• The base line between the front loudspeakers.
• The stereo loudspeaker’s position.
• The full home theatre loudspeaker placement.
• The preferred position for the center loudspeaker.
• A preferred unequal distance between the side walls and the panels (a, b, c and d).
