6. Kullanım Talimatları

6.1 Crossover Point Adjustment

The RST MKII features a 5-point crossover knob on the rear panel. This allows you to set the frequency at which the super tweeter begins to operate. Experiment with the settings (8 kHz, 10 kHz, 12 kHz, 14 kHz, 16 kHz) to find the best blend with your main speakers. The 'OFF' position disables the super tweeter.

  • 8 kHz: Provides the most overlap with your existing tweeter, potentially adding more presence to the upper midrange and lower treble.
  • 16 kHz: Offers minimal overlap, primarily extending the very top end of the frequency range.

6.2 Treble Attenuation

Below the crossover knob, there is a treble adjust knob for attenuation. This allows you to reduce the output level of the super tweeter from 0dB (no attenuation) down to -5dB. Adjust this setting to achieve a balanced sound that complements your main speakers and room acoustics, avoiding excessive brightness.
