The jumpers are there to fine-adjust the level of the tweeters. The reason is that the quality of the tweeters (MT20) was a bit erratic, so the Sonab factory used the jumpers to correct the level and they also matched speakers into pairs to perform as even as possible.

You hopefully find a red spot under one of the jumper positions, which is the factory pre-set. Don't change that. If you want to adjust the treble it is better to use the tone controls on your (pre-)amplifier.

Well, jumpers and dots on my OA12 are red. Sorry I not remembered when posting that the jumpers also could be blue. :oops:

Mine have the blue jumpers but on one of the speakers there is a red dot in a corner...hybrid maybe? :mrgreen: Will be trying them in a corner here shortly and i would guess to have the tweeters aimed along the long wall and not the immediate corner wall..correct?

It´s correct when it sounds good. :D

The red dot in the corner indicates how the speakers should be turned in different positions and is marked with an arrow in the pictures in the manual.
