ASSEMBLING
Column and base
It is easiest to assemble the base and the speaker
column if the loudspeaker is lying on a table.
In order to protect the table and the column
from being scratched, we recommend that you
place the wrapping foam on the table first.
The parts required for assembling the BeoLab
6000 are supplied with the loudspeakers:
1 Allen wrench
3 Screws (per speaker)
Hook the base plate onto the two guiding pins
at the bottom of the speaker column (be care-
ful not to drop the base plate!).
Insert the three screws and tighten them securely
using the Allen wrench.
Placement
The BeoLab 6000 occupies very little space on
the floor. In fact, it can be placed wherever it
is most convenient for your room layout and
for your preferred listening position.
Remember though, when planning where to
place them, that all speakers in a setup need
connection to a mains outlet and that they are
designed to be left on at all times!
The BeoLab 6000 is designed for use in dry
environments only!
