MAGIC ECO CO-ME1 & CO-ME2
INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR OPTIMISING AN AUDIO COMPONENT UNDER ITS CHASSIS

For optimising the bottom of your equipment, you first need to determine the directional characteristics of the chassis of your audio system before you can place the Magic ECO in the best position to achieve ultimate results.

First, slightly raise the front of your equipment and place the Magic ECO underneath the flat surface, so that it is in the centre and towards the front of the equipment. You will see four direction options marked on the body of the ECO.

To find the best direction, position the ECO so that one of the four directions is facing perpendicular to the front edge, and then play some test music, switching between each of the direction options to find out which one provides the best sound quality performance.

Do not change the direction when pressing on the ECO, so as to avoid scratches between the bottom of your equipment and the ECO’s surface. It should be immediately apparent which of the four directions provides the best sound, but if you are unsure, repeat the process again.

If you cannot determine which of the directions is best in the first test, repeat the process again.

Fine-tuning Procedures

Once you have decided on the preliminary desirable direction for your Magic ECO, you will need to do some further fine-tuning to ensure you achieve the ultimate optimisation results. This is done by progressively turning the Magic ECO within a 45-degree range either to the left or the right of the direction you have decided on.

Freely choose whether to start fine-tuning to the left or to the right. If you start by fine-tuning to a direction and the sound immediately begins to deteriorate, then stop and slightly adjust the inverted direction.  You should hear the sound distinctly improved. Listening to how the sound increasingly improves, until you hear the quality just begin to deteriorate. Adjust it back very slightly, and this should be the ideal position for the best results

Alternatively, if you continue to adjust the Magic ECO gradually on the side where the sound quality is getting better, listening to how the sound increasingly improves, until you hear the quality just begin to deteriorate. Adjust it back very slightly, and this should be the ideal position for the best results.

Placing Magic ECOs underneathe the equipment

Completely remove your audio equipment from the shelf and place three pieces of Magic ECO on the surface in the optimising position you have decided on. The placement positions must fit the flat surface of the bottom of the equipment, avoiding any screws so as to avoid scratching and instability.

Put the audio equipment back on top of all Magic ECO, ensuring they are completely stable, and check that the original feet are not in contact with them. If they are, adjust them ensuring not in contact with the feet while the optimising direction remains the same as the others.

INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR OPTIMISING THE TOP COVER OF AN AUDIO COMPONENT

Under normal circumstances, only one Magic ECO is needed to obtain the best possible optimisation for the top of your audio equipment.

Place a Magic ECO at the central top part of your equipment. From the designated directions on the round body of the Support, select the front option. Test the sound quality performance of each of the four directions by lifting the support and changing the direction for each test in the same position. It should be immediately apparent which optimising direction will provide the best listening quality.

If the best optimising direction cannot be determined in the first test, repeat the process until you find the best optimising direction.

Fine-tuning Procedures

Once you have decided on the best direction for your Magic ECO, you will need to do some further fine-tuning to ensure you achieve the ultimate optimisation results.

OPTIMISING THE AUDIO SYSTEM ENVIRONMENT
The Magic ECO can also be placed on the top of your loudspeaker, electric power plants, electric power strips, and floor tiles under or those surrounding the audio racks. For the optimising direction and fine-tuning procedures, they are the same as that for optimising the top cover of your audio equipment.
