PORTRAIT
TOWER
STAND
For Use
with
LCR
Front Channel Speakers
The Portrait
Tower
speaker system incorporates Artison's advanced sonic engineering, which
provides true, clear audio reproduction and eliminates the need for a separate center channel
speaker
box.
With the sleek, stylish
Tower
Kit, the two
LCR
(Left/Center/Right) speakers
are
integrated into attractive floor stands,
to
be
positioned
on
each side
of
the television
screen.
Each
speaker is configured with a patent-pending DualMono Center Channel, in which the
upper portion
of
both right
and
left
speakers
house two matched dedicated speakers
to
reproduce
the center channel - effectively placing crisp, clear dialogue in the center
of
the screen, rather
than above or below
as
with a typical center channel
speaker.
The Portrait
Tower
system is ideal for the new generation
of
DLp,
CRT,
and other flat
screen
televisions. The
Tower
option
has
been
designed to allow the Portrait
LCR
Front Channel
Speakers
to
be
used
as
a floor standing system.
You
do not need the grill kits that
are
required
for Plasma installations because they
are
included in the
Tower
Stand
Box.
Unpacking
the
Towers
1.
Carefully
remove
and
place
all
of
the components that
were
in the
Tower
box
on
a soft
surface.
2.
Remove
the following items from the box:
Tower,
Pedestal Base, Grille,
Top
Cap,
Hardware,
and Spike
Feet.
3.
If
any parts
are
missing or damaged please contact Artison immediately.
Building
The
Towers
1.
Remove
the Main brackets (as explained in the
LCR
portion
of
this manual). Set them aside
in
case
you
may need them in the future. These will not
be
used with the
Tower
Stand.
2. With the towers lying
on
a soft surface,
use
the M8 screws and the Allen Wrench located
in the tower's hardware kit and attach the bases
to
the
Towers.
Refer to Diagram 8
Note:
It
is
helpful
to have
the
bottom
of
the
Towers
supported
off
the
surface to
allow
the
base
to
fit.
The
packing
may
be
used
for
this
purpose.
Attaching
the
feet
to
the
Tower
base
1.
Locate and unpack the feet.
2. Screw the spikes into the bottom
of
the tower
base.
3.
From
the top
of
the foot, screw
to
locking nuts onto the top
of
each
spike.
4. Place the rubber socks onto each spike
if
you
are
planning
on
using the speaker
on
a hard
surface such
as
a wood or tile floor.
If
you
are
using the speaker
on
carpet
we
suggest that
you
do
not
use
the socks.
5.
You
may adjust the speaker
so
that
it
is straight
by
first loosening the spike locking nuts.
Next, turn the spikes
to
adjust their height and level the
speaker.
After
you
have
the speaker
in the desired position, re-tighten the locking nut.
