Thank
you
for
your
purchase.
Our
speakers
are
designed
to
make
high-performance
sound
easy
to
bring
into
your
life.
They
have
wide
frequency
and
dynamic
range,
natural
tonal
balance
and
precise
spatial
imaging
needed
to
make
music
lifelike
and
enjoyable.

SPEAKER
PLACEMENT-MAXIMIZING
YOUR
ENJOYMENT
In
most
installations,
ideal
speaker
placement
relative
to
the
listening
positions
and
sur-
rounding
areas
can
be
difficult
to
achieve.
However,
following
as
much
as
possible,
the
guidelines
listed
below
can
greatly
improve
the
final
sonic
effect,
lower
the
expense
and
simplify
the
installation.
Consider
the
desired
and
probable
locations
of
listeners
when
deciding
on
speaker
placements.
As
much
as
possible,
listeners
should
have
a
clear
line-of-sight/hearing
to
all
speakers
in
their
listening
area.
Other
important
factors
are:
1.
Locating
speakers
equidistant
to
listeners.
2.
Locating
speakers
slightly
closer
to
each
other
than
their
distance
from
listeners,
3.
Locating
speakers
symmetrically
to
each
other
and
to
the
listeners.
4.
Aiming
speakers
slightly
above
the
listening
area-the
speakers
have
been
voiced
to
achieve
enhanced
coverage
in
open
spaces.
5.
In
horizontal
installations
locating
the
tweeters
towards
the
outside
of
the
listen-
ing
area.
Balance
adjustments
on
the
amplifier
can
compensate
for
some
physical
location
differ-
ences
between
the
left
and
right
speaker.
Mounting/locating
a
speaker
in
a
corner,
near
the
ceiling
or
under
the
soffit
and
similar
single
or
multiple
boundary
surfaces
will
increase
the
bass
output.
II.
MOUNTING
THE
SPEAKERS
Select
corrosion
resistant
fasteners
(eg.
made
of
stainless
steel)
of
sufficient
quality
and
size,
appropriate
for
the
surface
to
which
the
speakers
will
be
mounted,
to
ensure
secure
mounting
with
good
safety
margin.
It
is
your
responsibility
to
ensure
that
the
surfaces
which
you
selected
for
attaching
the
speakers
are
structurally
sound
and
strong
enough
to
bear
the
weight
of
the
speakers.
Consider
using
#10
-
#12
(5.0
or
5.5mm)
screws
that
are
2.5
to
3"
(65
to
75mm)
long
for
direct-to-wall
stud
attachment
or
specialty
anchoring
hardware
for
hollow-wall
or
masonry
installation.
Using
the
tether
loop
(f,
Figure
1)
for
tethering
the
speaker
to
the
mounting
surface
with a
steel
cable
is
recommended.
1.
Remove
the
bracket
assembly
from
the
speaker
by
removing
two
plastic
knobs
(c,
Figure
1).
2.
Hold
the
bracket
assembly
against
the
intended
mounting
surface,
ensuring
that
such
location
allows
for
full
adjustment
range
of
the
speaker
orientation
without
interfering
with
close-by
objects.
Using
the
plastic
wall
plate
(e,
Figure
1)
of
the
bracket
as
your
template
mark
screw
hole
locations.
