5. The owner’s manual.
The location of your iT1air in the room is crucial for sound quality and bass level.The unit is equipped with two side subwoofers and
is able to reproduce very low frequencies. Some guidelines should be followed to get the best possible result.
1. Install the unit at an equal distance between the two side walls to get the largest possible staging.The side walls will act as
reflectors.
2. If you reduce the distance between the unit and the back wall, the bass level will rise. If you increase the distance, the bass level
will decrease. Choose distance based on your preference.
3. Your ears and the iT1air should be in the same horizontal plane for perfect definition.
4. To get the best possible result, do not put the unit on a table with a large panel in front of the speakers as it will reflect the sound
in an undesireable way.
5. Adjust the subwoofer level with the remote control.
