Chapter 8-1 Tweeter attenuation (MTS-01 Only)
Tweeter Attenuation Control: Placed inside your binding post
cup in the back of
your speaker, the
standard tweeter
switch setting (0dB)
is best for medium to
large rooms with
typical levels of
acoustic damping
(curtains, uphol-
stered furniture, car-
peting), or for small
rooms which are acoustically treated with panels and diffusers.
In rooms without acoustical treatments, and which have a significant per-
centage of exposed and highly reflective surfaces (drywall, brick, glass),
you may find the standard tweeter setting too ―bright‖ and accentuated. In
such instances, try the attenuated tweeter setting, which mitigates some
of the extreme high frequencies and will sound ―softer‖ as a result.
Evaluate the two modes using music which you know well. Ultimately
your personal preference will dictate the optimal tweeter switch setting.
The red trace below is the ―flat‖ 0dB tweeter setting, blue is with the –3dB
attenuation selected.
