Radius Floor Stand Fixing Instructions
1
Thank you and congratulations on purchasing our bespoke Monitor Audio Radius
Floorstand. This product has been designed using the most up-to-date computer
technology to provide you with an aesthetically pleasing stand for your loudspeakers, and
also to ensure that the exceptional sound quality is maintained. The stand incorporates a
heavy cast metal alloy base which offers great balance and stability.
With Radius comes simplicity, and it couldn’t be more simple to connect your speakers to
the stand. The stand comes fully assembled with our very own ‘Pure Flow’ loudspeaker
cable internally within the stand so that there is no awkward threading of cables. Simply
follow the step by step instructions below and then sit back and enjoy the big sound from
little speakers…
Please remember to always read the instructions first as they are sequenced to
provide a safe way of working.
This stand has been designed to be used with either the Radius 90 or the Radius 180
loudspeakers.
DO NOT CONNECT YOUR SPEAKER CABLES TO THE AMPLIFIER BEFORE ASSEMBLY.

Within this carton you will have:
2 x Radius Floorstands.

4 x Radius loudspeakerfixing screws.
1 x Hex key
1 x Warranty card. Please note: When filling in the warranty card, there is no

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Now that you have removed the carton, remove the polystyrene end-caps to reveal
your Radius Floorstands.
2. While the Floorstands are lying on the floor, now is the time to put the spikes in (if
you decide to use them), if you aren’t using the spikes move on to Step 3. This is
done by screwing them all the way into their threaded holes. Position the stands in
their desired locations to see if they are level. If the stand does not appear to be
level, unscrew one of the spikes slightly until the stand is level and tighten up the
lock nut. You are now ready to fix your Radius Loudspeakers to the stand.

3. Take either your Radius 90 or Radius 180, remove the small red and black plastic
caps from the terminals. A knife or fine blade screwdriver may be required to lever
these out (Fig. 1).
4. Remove the screws located either side of the terminal on the back (labelled ‘A’ and
‘B’ in fig. 2), from your loudspeaker. These can be removed with the hex key
provided with your stand.
5. Place the Radius loudspeaker fixing screws into their holes in the back of the stand
(Fig. 3). Carefully push your loudspeaker on to the terminals in the floorstand
terminal housing (Fig. 4), and while supporting the weight of the speaker, start to
tighten the screws until they are finger tight and bear the weight of the cabinet
(Fig.5).
6. Take the hex key (included in the packaging), and tighten the screw so that your
loudspeaker is held firmly in place.
7. If you intend to use 4mm banana plug terminations with your floorstand remove the
small red and black plastic terminal caps from the terminals on the base of the
floorstand (this is done in the same way as described in section 3). If you are using
bare wire terminations, leave these in place. If you choose to use banana plugs,
simply plug them straight into their correct terminal’s (Fig. 6), or if you are using
bare wire terminations, unscrew the terminal slightly and placing your cable into
the through hole and then tighten the terminal up again to hold the cable in place
(Fig. 7).
8. Connect the speaker cable to your amplifier.
