But is it Level?
Imprezap2 raised an interesting question concerning level. I remembered with my initial spiking, the head technician who I know personally and who is extremely competent had significant difficulty leveling the speakers. I was so stressed out by the whole process of installation I didn't question him as to why. I went back and noted the bubble was inside the circles (barely) and thought nothing more about it. I had an XVX, spiked (though inferiorly), and working properly. I was happy.
This time around I wanted the speakers spiked to one and a half inches, believing my floor to be extremely level. My speakers are almost exactly 4 cm at all corners (1.57 inches). Left XVX. It would seem that my floor is not level certainly not from front to rear, since the bubble is significantly outside the circle. Looking across the width from outside to inside also seems off, but note that all the bubble is inside the circle. Looking across the width from inside to out side seems off the other way but again the bubble is noted to be inside the circle. First effort at a straight down shot at the circle. Note the bubble is inside the circle. Final and better straight down shot shows bubble satisfactorily well within the circle. I think my left XVX quite level. From this I conclude that you need a straight down shot of the XVX level to determine if the bubble is truly inside the circle and thus level. I think this to be the source of confusion with the first installation. Best Charles Last edited by Charles; 08-01-2021 at 02:19 PM. |
