Optimus STS 800 8-Inch Three-Way Tower Speaker (400-4068) Preparation Faxback Doc. # 34855 SPEAKER PLACEMENT CAUTIONS: To prevent the cabinet from warping or discoloring, do not place the speaker where it is exposed to direct sunlight or excessive humidity. Do not place the speaker where it might be knocked over or hit by falling objects. Where and how you position your speaker has a great effect on the overall sound of your system. For the best stereo effect, position each speaker an equal distance from each other and the center of your listening area. If you must place speakers farther apart than recommended, you can turn them slightly toward each other to achieve a more realistic effect. For a slight increase in bass response, place your speakers on a shelf or table positioned against a wall or in a corner. Avoid placing your speakers on a surface that absorbs sound, such as thick carpeting. Experiment to find the best setup for your sound system. (YO/EB 10/1/96)
