introduction The new Silver RX Series builds on the huge success of the award winning Silver RS Series by incorporating advanced technologies, developed from the prestigious Platinum and Gold Signature Series. It’s the blend of these advanced technologies that makes the new RX Series so unique, with performance to eclipse that of its predecessor.
RX6 The elegant floor-standing RX6 places the new wider-bandwidth RX tweeter in concert with freshly-designed 6” C-CAM bass and 6” C-CAM bass/mid drivers to form a balanced two-and-a-half way system. Separate chambers are utilised within the enclosure to provide differential tuning for the 6” drivers, producing higher efficiency and exceptional low frequency extension.
positioning AV Positioning In the following pages, there are illustrations showing optimal positioning and some suggested room layouts for AV applications. For advice on configuring a 2 channel system, please refer to page 9. The front, and in some cases rear, floor standing and stand mount speakers should be positioned approx 6 - 9 feet apart (1.8m - 2.5m) and start with them about 10 inches (25cm) from the wall.

Speci NOTE: When using 2 pairs of RX-FX in a 7.1 system, you need to use the Right speaker for the rear surround left and the Left speaker for the rear surround right. This is because of the tweeter phasing. 2 Channel Positioning For use in a 2 channel system, the listening position and the loudspeakers should form an equilateral triangle. The speakers should be positioned approximately 6 - 10 feet (1.8 - 3m) apart.
Fixing the RX-FX to a wall CAUTION: You will need to determine where the RX-FX will be fixed and the structure of the wall. For safety reasons, if you are unsure of your ability to provide a secure and safe fixing, do not attempt to fix these speakers to your wall, please obtain the services of a competent and qualified trades person. CAUTION: Ensure that there are no water pipes or electricity cables running behind where the wall brackets are going to be secured.
Spiked Foot For Carpeted Floors (Silver RX6 & RX8 only) The Silver RX spiked foot encorporates a spike for use on carpeted floors and also, a soft polymer pad for use on wooden or tiled floors. Locking Nut Main Threaded Assembly Polymer Pad Spike Please ensure there are no hidden wires under the carpet that could be damaged by the spikes. The foot comes fully assembled for use on carpeted floors. All that is required is fixing into the plinth.
Port bungs WARNING: Care must be taken not to insert the port bungs too far into the port as this may result in the foam bung being lost inside the cabinet. If the loudspeaker is to be used in a small room, typically 9 sqM ( 80 sqFT) or a room that is known to reproduce accentuated bass response, it may be desirable to fit the port bungs. However, before this is done it is worth experimenting with the positioning of the loudspeaker in the room.
