Setting up your System Setup and Operation The Egg 150 is designed specifically for near-field, free standing operation. This means that adjacent equipment and surfaces will have some affect on the performance of the system and this should be taken into account when planning and installing the speakers. The openness of the sound balance will be at its best in a room that is acoustically treated in such a way as to be as neutral as is reasonably possible.
Setting up your System Equalisation The Egg 150 is naturally neutral in its frequency response. This is mainly a result of the acoustically optimal enclosure and the choice of small drivers with almost perfectly controlled directivity. However, not all rooms are neutral and also the positioning of the speakers will affect the response. Placing a speaker very near a wall will increase bass and a corner will have even more effect.
Setting up your System Running In High quality drivers are used in the Egg systems. When new, they will reach their optimum working performance after approximately 24 hours of operation and after that should still be allowed to warm up before serious mixing is carried out.
