OVERVIEW
OVERVIEWOVERVIEW
OVERVIEW
The AR101 is the result of a long research in materials,
components and laborator tests. The strict guide line for
the project was be “optimization”.
Thanks to qualit of the material and the accurac of the
acoustical design this s stem has high performances and
natural sound in the fewest space.
POSITION
POSITIONPOSITION
POSITION
The right position of the AR101 is related to the acoustical
and dimensional characteristics of the listening site.
Following some simple guide line for a right position.
The distance from the ground have to be a bit over the ear
of the listening (normall and average of 5,58 feet (1,7
meters). This quote have to be increased according to de
distance from the more close and the more far listener;
0,4 inches (1 cm) for each 3,28 feet (1 meter) of
interposed distance.
The orientation have to be to the centre of the interested
listening area. If there are more speakers, an one has to
cover a part of the listening area, the area more closed to
it.
