Conseils d’installation des enceintes

L’emplacement des enceintes dans la pièce
d’écoute a une grande influence sur la qualité
du son obtenu. Les conseils suivants vous
permettront d’obtenir le meilleur son avec
votre système.
Le caisson de basses peut être placé sur le
sol. L’idéal est de placer les autres
enceintes au niveau de vos oreilles en
position d’écoute. Il est déconseillé de
poser les enceintes sur le sol (à l’exception
du caisson de graves) ou de les installer
très haut en position murale.
Pour obtenir un effet stéréo optimal, placez
les enceintes avant à environ 2 m à 3 m
l’une de l’autre, à égale distance du
téléviseur.
Si vous prévoyez de placer les enceintes à
côté d’un téléviseur à écran cathodique,
utilisez des enceintes protégées contre les
interférences électromagnétiques, ou
placez les enceintes à une distance
suffisante de l’écran.
Si vous utilisez une enceinte centrale,
placez les enceintes avant à un angle plus
grand. Sinon, placez-les à un angle plus
étroit.
Placez l’enceinte centrale au-dessus ou en
dessous du téléviseur de sorte que le son
du canal central semble provenir de l’écran
du téléviseur. Assurez-vous également que
l’enceinte centrale ne traverse pas la ligne
formée par le bord d’attaque des enceintes
avant gauche et droite.
Il vaut mieux placer les enceintes de
manière à réaliser un angle ouvert vers la
position d’écoute. L’angle dépend de la
taille de la pièce. Utilisez un angle inférieur
pour les pièces plus grandes.
Les enceintes surround et surround arrière
doivent être placées entre 60 cm et 90 cm
plus haut que vos oreilles et légèrement
inclinées vers le bas. Assurez-vous que les
enceintes ne sont pas face à face. Pour les
signaux DVD-Audio, les enceintes doivent
être plus rapprochées de l’auditeur que
lors de la lecture sur un appareil de cinéma
à domicile.
Si les enceintes surround ne peuvent pas
être placées directement à côté de la
position d’écoute dans un système à 7.1
canaux, l’effet surround pourra être
amélioré en désactivant la fonction Up
Mix (voir la section Réglage de la fonction
Up Mix, page 38).
Essayez de placer les enceintes surround
à la même distance de la position
d’écoute que les enceintes avant et
centrale. Sinon, l’effet de son surround
sera affaibli.
Placez les enceintes avant-haut gauche et
droite à au moins un mètre à la verticale
au-dessus des enceintes avant gauche et
droite.
ATTENTION
Assurez-vous que toutes les enceintes
sont correctement installées. Ceci permet
non seulement d’améliorer la qualité du
son, mais aussi de réduire les risques de
dommages ou de blessures, en empêchant
les enceintes d’être renversées ou de
tomber en cas de choc externe ou de
secousse telle qu’un tremblement de terre.
