Handcrafted

Beneath the surface of Helix’s elegant exterior lies rigid MDF

construction. Interlocking joinery maximizes the strength of the

cabinet parts. Polyester fiberfill is selected for internal damping.

A sharp rap on the enclosure will leave you with little more than

bruised knuckles. Each cabinet is impeccably finished on all ex-

posed surfaces with select veneers. The exquisite finish is hand-

rubbed several times to assure a patina at home with the most

elegant decor.

A great deal of forethought, love and satisfaction is instilled in

each piece of Legacy workmanship. We take pride in getting to

know many of our customers on a first name basis. The re-

nowned “Legacy Satisfaction Guarantee” backs your purchase of

Helix is a large loudspeaker requiring assistance of a dolley, a cord-

less Philips screw driver and two or more physically capable individu-

als to uncrate and locate.

Here are some uncrating tips:

1. Carefully remove screws securing the lid of the crate, and lift

panel away. Locate subwoofer power cord and set aside.

2. Next remove front panel of crate and set aside.

3. Remove side panel of crate as shown.

4. Remove foam from top lid and use as ramp as shown in bot-

tom photo.

5. Helix is setting on four heavy duty casters, allowing is to be

maneuvered on level ground.

6. Take care to avoid damaging floors when locating.

7. Helix is a field serviceable loudspeaker, so it is unlikely that an

entire cabinet would ever need to be returned to the factory.

However, when moving or storing, the crates are extremely

useful for protecting the cabinets.

1. A speaker setup (left) that works well with HELIX follows

these ratios:

Distance, d1, between the speakers (center to center) =

Distance, d2, from plane of speaker front to listener.

2. Toe the speakers into the listening area. In most circum

stances crossing speaker axes just slightly behind of the lis

tener’s head works best. This will broaden your sweet spot

horizontally. If dispersing into an L-shaped seating arrange

ment you might find the best results by aiming the left

speaker at the right most seating position, and the right

speaker at the left most seating position.

Speaker Placement

All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com

Room reflections and resonance typically contribute 85% of the

total energy arriving at the listener’s ears. Often, a loudspeaker

designed to measure well under laboratory conditions, will be-

come blurred, dissonant and placement dependent in the actual

listening room.

The HELIX speaker has a carefully shaped polar pattern. This as-

sures that the wave-launch generated will sum coherently at the

listening position. To the left is an illustration of how our new He-

lix speaker performs.

Conventional speakers (top) beam treble and scatter midrange

about the imaging room, while loading up the corners with boom-

ing, lingering bass.

Legacy’s directivity controlled designs focus the radiation pattern

toward the listeners (bottom). The result is a broader sweet spot

for imaging, markedly greater clarity and a slamming bass line

that is quick and tight

The Terminal Plate

The four-way HELIX requires the user to

provide three channels of amplification per

speaker. This may be accomplished via three

stereo amplifiers, a combination of mono

blocks and stereo amplifiers, or a single six-

channel amplifier.

HELIX includes an internal 750-watt ampli-

fier to power the subwoofer section. A bal-

anced XLR input feeds the subwoofer, while

three pairs of premium WBT Platinum five-

way binding posts are provided for the mid

bass, midrange and treble inputs.

Your Legacy dealer can assist you with your

specific cabling needs.

Speaker Connections

All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com

It is advantageous, when practical, to position the amplifiers midway between the HELIX speakers. This

will keep the speaker cable lengths to a minimum.
