IMPORTANT CAUTIONS!
Read before installing this equipment!
•Do not expose your loudspeakers to excessive cold, heat, humidity
or sunlight - see Maintenance.
•Do not discard the original packaging. The original Cyrus packaging
is an important element of your warranty.
•Do not connect your loudspeakers to the mains electricity supply.
•Ensure that your loudspeakers are correctly wired and are in phase -
see ‘Connecting your loudspeakers’.
•Do not mount your loudspeakers by the rear panel. Wall brackets
must support the underside of the product.
When setting up the system or playing music it is always important to pay
particular attention to the following points-
•Do not change any component in your system without first switching
off your amplifier. Every time you change the connections from any
signal source to your amplifier, ensure that you first switch off the
amplifier.
•Do not use your amplifier at full power. This will 'clip' the amplifier
and may damage your loudspeakers. Full power with many
amplifiers can occur at around half volume setting.
•When switching on your system, do so with the volume control at
minimum and turn the level up gradually.
•When changing discs, adjusting tuners, rewinding tapes, etc., turn
the volume control down to its minimum.
•Filters, tone controls or graphic equalisers are not recommended for
use in a system with Cyrus speakers.
•Never use Cyrus speakers part supported on a shelf. All 3 feet must
be supported.
•It is recommended that Cyrus speakers should be attached securely
to stable loudspeaker stands. This will help performance as well as
stability.
Welcome to the world of Cyrus!
Congratulations on your choice of Cyrus loudspeakers. Our state-of-the-
art design technology and outstanding quality of manufacture has won
countless awards around the world. We are confident that you will derive
great pleasure from owning a product from one of the most recognised
and respected manufacturers of hi-fi equipment.
Please read these instructions carefully before commencing installation.
They provide full guidance to help you install your Cyrus loudspeakers
safely and correctly.
Unpacking Your Loudspeakers
CAUTION!- Take care not to touch the drive units when unpacking and
setting up the speakers. The drive units may be permanently damaged!
Retain all the packing materials so that your loudspeaker can be
repacked and shipped without damage.
To avoid damage to your system, always ensure that mains power is
disconnected from all system components until installation is complete.
Front Grilles
The front grilles of the speakers provide protection from accidental
damage to the sensitive drive units. If this protection is not required, the
grilles may be removed. For maximum performance we recommend
listening with the grilles removed.
To remove the grilles, grip the frame and ease the grille away from the
front of the speaker, starting from the top. The grille can be re-fitted by
lining up the four fixing pegs with the miniature sockets in the front of the
speaker.
The Cyrus Icon grille is attached with magnetic side strips. To remove the
grille from the Icon, gently pull the tab concealed at the base of the
speaker. To re-fit the Icon grille, align the bottom of the grille with the
base first, then slowly bring the grille towards the top of the cabinet. The
magnetic fixing system will draw the grille into the correct position
automatically.
Cyrus loudspeaker stands
Refer to the instruction sheet supplied with the stands.
Positioning your loudspeakers in a stereo system
The sound quality achieved by your speakers is greatly affected by the
position of the speakers and listener in the room. The most important
dimension is the distance between the speaker and the wall behind it (the
back wall). When first setting up the speakers we make the following
recommendations-
1. Where possible, locate the speakers at least 1m from the corners of
the room.
2. Place the speakers 2-3m apart and approximately 0.5m from the
wall.
3. Set the speakers with no ‘toe-in’ (square to the wall).
From this initial setting, small position adjustments can later be made to
tailor the sound to your requirements. Moving the speakers closer to the
wall will adjust the sound balance to give more bass but with a smaller
soundstage. Moving the speakers away from the wall will reduce bass but
will increase the size of the soundstage. Setting the speakers with a toe-in
towards the listener will reduce the depth of the image within the
soundstage, but may focus individual elements of the image.
Positioning your loudspeakers in an A/V system
Our guidelines for setting up the speakers in a A/V system are very
similar to those for a stereo system. If the system has a centre channel
dialogue speaker the front left and right speakers may be positioned
further apart to give a larger listening field for more people. When first
setting up the speakers in an A/V system we make the following
recommendations-
1. Where possible, locate the speakers at least 1m from the corners of
the room.
2. Place the front speakers 3-4m apart and 0.5m from the wall.
3. Place the centre channel speaker as close as possible to the
picture.
4. Set the rear surround channel speakers with a ‘toe-in’, angled
towards the listener.
From this initial setting, small position adjustments can later be made as
listed for stereo systems in the previous section.
For a system with a subwoofer the surround sound decoder may be set
for small speakers which will direct deep bass to the subwoofer and give
the system extra headroom.

Connecting Your Loudspeakers
Choosing a speaker cable
There are many types of loudspeaker cable available which are suitable
to partner Cyrus speakers. We make general recommendations to choose
a cable which is simple in construction and which is made with high
quality materials for the conductors and insulation. A good dealer will be
able to advise a suitable cable and provide the correct terminations for the
amplifier and speakers.
Phasing
Correct phasing is essential when connecting a speaker to an amplifier.
All amplifiers and speakers are equipped with + (or red) and – (or black)
terminals for connection of the speaker cables. For the speaker system to
work correctly the + and – output terminals of the amplifier must connect
to the corresponding + and – terminals of the speaker. All speaker cables
have a polarity mark (plastic rib, coloured stripe or + markings) on one of
the wires. This wire is the + wire and should be connected to the
corresponding + terminals of both the amplifier and speaker.
Cable directionality
Most speaker cables are sensitive to the direction of signal flow. If so, the
cable will be marked with arrows which should point in the direction of the
signal (from amplifier to speaker).
Connecting cables with tags to the speakers
Unscrew the four terminal tops so that the tags can be tucked underneath.
Tighten the terminal tops securely to retain the tags.
Connecting cables without tags to the speakers
If the cables don’t have connection tags fitted they must first be stripped
as shown in the diagram below. The stripped ends can then be twisted
together and fitted into the hole drilled in the terminal pin.
Bi-wiring and Bi-amping
Bi-wiring
Cyrus speakers are designed to be used with bi-wired or bi-amped wiring
arrangements. Two cables (or a bi-wired pair) are necessary to connect
each speaker to the output terminals of your amplifier. Most Cyrus
amplifiers feature twin speaker outlets for the most effective bi-wiring
connection as shown in the schematic below.
NOTE:- Any bi-wire links must be removed from the terminal panel when
the speakers are connected to a bi-wired system.
Bi-amping
The benefits of bi-wiring can be further extended with the addition of
separate amplification for the bass and tweeter units of your speakers (bi-
amping). In this case the preamplifier output of the Integrated amplifier is
connected to the input of a power amplifier and separate connections are
made from the speaker outputs of each amplifier to the speaker drive
units. Bi-amplified wiring of a Cyrus amplifier is simple and is shown in the
schematic.
NOTE:- Any bi-wire links must be removed from the terminal panel when
the speakers are connected to a bi-amplified system.
Removing the bi-wire links
If the speakers are to be used in a bi-wired or bi-amplified system it is
essential to remove any bi-wire links from the terminal panel. To remove
the links unscrew all four terminals. The links can then be removed from
the terminal panel as shown in the diagrams below. The four connection
wires can then be fitted to the terminals.

Maintenance
Use a slightly dampened cloth to clean the cabinets. Do not use solvents
of any kind as they may damage the fine finishes. The grilles should be
removed from the speakers and brushed gently with a soft, clean brush to
remove dust.
Periodically check that the fixings on the bass drive units are tight to keep
them secure. Over-tightening will not improve performance. Do not touch
high frequency drive unit fixings. For Icon, the fixings for the main surface-
sound driver should be checked periodically.
CAUTION: High levels of magnetism will attract steel tools directly to the
sensitive tweeter dome. The tweeter dome is not covered against
distortion caused by accidental intrusion.
Product Service
Should your loudspeakers fail please return them as a pair, even if only
one unit appears to be faulty (excludes Icon). You must pack them using
the original packing to be eligible for any warranty claim. Replacement
packaging can be purchased from the Cyrus service department.
