Thank you for choosing Morel loudspeakers
Your speakers have been handcrafted by Morel from the highest-
quality materials and components. Utmost attention and care have
been devoted to every detail of the design and construction, to
ensure your long-lasting enjoyment of the product.
The more you play, the better the sound
The sound quality of all speakers improves
after at least 48 hours of playing time.
This is needed as a breaking-in and period for
the moving parts of a new speaker.
The usage of quality cables and connectors
can improve performance. A good speaker
cable connection requires ample surface-area
and contact-area pressure. We recommend that
you consult your dealer for the most suitable
cables to match your system and budget.

Thank you for choosing Morel's SoundSpot
TM
. These award-
winning speakers are unique in design and construction,
offering extraordinary sound quality for both stereo and home
theatre applications in an attractive design.
SoundSpot
TM
The SoundSpot
TM
speakers deliver a full and rich sound, but their
size limits their ability to reproduce low-frequency bass notes,
which require massive air movement. For a more full-bodied,
dynamic sound across the entire frequency range, we
recommend that you include Morel's subwoofer in your system.
Speaker Placement
The SoundSpot
TM
speakers offer many installation
possibilities - they can be wall-mounted (fig. A or B),
hung from the ceiling (fig. C), placed on a shelf or TV
top (fig. D), or fitted on
the specially designed
(optional) ST-90 or
ST-95 floor stands
(see p. 8).

Mounting the SoundSpot
TM
Speakers
The SoundSpot
TM
speakers
are equipped with a
pivoting base that turns 180°.
To change the orientation of the base, to best
conceal the base in the selected mounting option,
loosen the screw that locks the base position (located
under the base), rotate the base a full 180°
and firmly tighten the screw.
Snap on the rubber footing

To mount your SoundSpot
TM
speaker on a ceiling or wall, first
choose the location of the speaker and mark the precise spot
where you will drill a hole to line up with the hole in the speaker
base. Next drill a hole in the wall using a
7mm (1/4”) bit, and insert the plastic plug.
Attach the speaker using the fixing screw.
Cover the screw head with the plastic
screw cover provided.
Finally, adjust the speaker angle until the speaker is directed
toward the listening area, and lock it in place.

To mount your SoundSpotTM speakers on
the floor stand, see page 8.

Installation Instructions (optional units)
Carefully fasten the tapered tube to the base.
Make sure that the tube is perpendicular to
the base. Do not use mechanical tools or
excessive force. If you are unable to screw the
tube completely into the base and eliminate the
gap between the two parts, simply unscrew
the tube and repeat the process with the
tube positioned precisely perpendicular.
To protect delicate surfaces use
the supplied rubber spikes and
press them onto the stands in six
different locations.

Slip the speaker cable
through the hollow tube,
and out of the opening
near the top of the tube
(under the bolt).
Finally, connect the speaker to the stand by
removing the speaker base (fig. A) and
inserting the exposed joint into the stand tube
(fig. B). Secure the bolt (fig. C), locking the
speaker to the stand.
To complete the setup, connect the speaker cable
to the speaker's input terminals, following the
installation instructions in your speaker manual.

Caring for the SoundSpot
TM
Speakers
To protect the speaker components, avoid operating the
speaker in extreme humidity or adverse temperature
conditions.
Unplug the electrical connection of the
amplifier before making any connections.
Amplifier Connection
Regardless of your speaker setting or your amplifier's rated
power capacity, do not operate the speakers at full output
levels (highest volume), as the high levels of distortion
generated by amplifiers at full output may damage your speakers.
For each speaker, connect the red or (+) output terminal on
your amplifier to the red input terminal on the speaker and
connect the black or (-) output terminal on the amplifier to the
black input terminal on the speaker.
LARGE, SMALL Speaker Amplifier Setting
AC3, Dolby surround sound amplifiers have a speaker setting
option for large or small speakers.
This setting option is made to protect small speakers by filtering
low frequency signals, which may harm the speaker at high
power out put.
The following setting is needed for your speakers:
LI-1, BI-1 set to small speaker option.
All other speakers can be set to large speaker option.
Stereo Models
The SoundSpot
TM
SA-2, SI-2 and BI-2 stereo models are
designed for direct connection to your amplifier and do not
require a filtered output.
