C ongratulations on your purchase of the T HIEL CS7.2 Coherent Source ® loudspeaker system. The CS7.2 is the result of a long and dedicated effort to provide the most accurate music reproduction possible. We have used only the highest quality components and taken great care in the CS7.
DESIGN PHILOSOPHY The CS7.2 is a precision instrument designed to translate, as accurately as possible, electronic information into musical sound. All our efforts have been directed toward achieving extremely faithful translation of all tonal, spatial and dynamic information supplied by the amplifier.
2 POSITIONING THE SPEAKERS Because of their unipolar radiation pattern and co-axial design, the CS7.2s will provide good results when placed in a variety of room locations. However, speaker placement will affect the accuracy of timbre, spatial performance, and bass performance.
3 Placement suggestions Some people have restraints on speaker placement because of room size, shape, or aesthetic considerations and cannot meet one or more of the above placement recommendations. They should not be discouraged from investing in CS7.
4 Some rooms, especially narrow ones, can benefit from placing the speakers along the long wall. Although space behind the speaker and behind the listener is reduced, this positioning increases the space between the speakers without side wall interference, and can improve overall performance.
CONNECTING THE SPEAKERS The CS7.2s’ input terminals are located on the bottom of the speaker near the back. Access is from the back with the speaker in its normal upright position. Make sure that both connections are tight. It is best to turn the amplifier off while connecting or disconnecting the speakers.
6 BREAK-IN The CS7.2s, like most speakers, require a period of playing before they perform optimally. The time required depends on how loudly the speakers are played; more time is required if played softly, less if played loudly. At least 50 hours at moderately loud levels are required before the speaker is performing near optimum.
7 connected to another room by a large open area, the required power will increase—but not by the amount of the combined room volume. If the room has a “dropped” ceiling with lightweight panels, the ceiling will be almost transparent acoustically .
