even though it weighs 25 kg (55 lbs.), to its final spot in the room.

Keep your packaging for possible future transport of your system

Unpacking Stand
You will need to assemble the speaker stand following the instructions provided in
the drawings.
The fully assembled speaker stand should resemble the illustrations shown:
1. Open the cardboard box widely and carefully remove each component one by
one.
2. Set the omnee.m Speaker stand legs in an upright position on the floor, ensuring
that the wider side is at the bottom. Place the legs with a separation of around 120
degrees between them. This is similar to dividing a complete circle (360 degrees)
into three equal parts.

3. Ensure that the bolts are inserted through the center holes on each of the three
sides of the stand top plate.
Identify the top side by locating the side where the bolt insertion holes are slightly
inward.
Once the bolts are inserted and tightened, verify that they are leveled with the top
surface. This confirms the correct orientation of the assembly.
4. Position the stand's top plate onto the stand legs and insert the first bolt
completely without tightening it.
5. Insert the second bolt, and if needed, gently apply force to align the metal leg
with the insertion hole. Screw the bolt all the way in without fully tightening it.
6. Repeat the process described in step 5 for the third bolt.
7. Once all bolts are inserted, proceed to tighten them securely.
8. Tighten the side bolts of the stand until they feel sufficiently firm.
Please follow these steps carefully to ensure the proper assembly.

Unpacking Speaker
The speaker comes in a transport case that includes both cardboard protection
and a custom wood case. It is strongly advised to retain this case, as it could prove
invaluable for potential future transportation needs.
Due to the substantial weight and its surface can be slippery, we suggest that two
individuals assist in the unpacking and positioning process.
For unpacking, please follow the instructions described below and as shown in the
drawings below:

Installing Speaker on the Stand
Once you have assembled the stand and determined the final position for the
speaker, it's time to place the speaker onto the stand.
Carefully position the speaker at the center of the stand. Align and insert the
speaker legs into the stand holes, one side of the speaker at a time.
Make sure that the rubber feet of the speaker are aligned and inserted correctly
into the designated stand top holes.
Once they are positioned accurately, the speaker should firmly sit on the stand
base.

If you intend to make a slight adjustment to the speaker's position, you can hold the
stand along with the speaker and move them together. However, if you plan to
move the speaker to a more distant location, it's advisable to first place the
speaker on the floor, reposition the stand, and then install the speaker onto the
stand.

Speaker Placement
ONE.618 is committed to crafting speakers that serve as near-perfect sound
sources, embodying the concept of a point source. Our goal is to create sound
fields that exude naturalness and boast an expansive, well-balanced reproduction
of frequencies.
Unlike most conventional loudspeakers, the omnee.m is meticulously tuned to
deliver peak performance, irrespective of its placement within your listening
environment. This exceptional quality allows the omnee.m to effortlessly adapt to
various placement scenarios.
The omnee.m excels in any room size, ensuring flawless audio reproduction whether
you're situated in close proximity to the speakers or positioned at a distance from
them. Its adaptability knows no bounds – it's an affirmation that wherever it finds
itself, it's in the right spot."
However, if you're looking to fully unleash the omnee.m's potential, adhering to our
recommendations will enhance your experience:
Positioning: Start by identifying the center or optimal listening zone in your room.
This will serve as the prime location for your omnee.m speaker.
Distance from Walls: Position the speaker at a minimum distance of 2 meters away
from walls or obstructions. This strategic placement minimizes reflections and
facilitates a balanced sound dispersion. This contributes significantly to accurate
tonal qualities, lifelike sound imaging, focus, and dynamic range.
Height: Set the speaker at or slightly above ear level when seated. This ensures
unimpeded sound travel to your ears, optimizing the dispersion pattern while
minimizing reflections from the floor and ceiling. Utilizing an omnee.m speaker stand
is recommended.
Speaker Orientation: Unlike conventional speakers, the omnee.m boasts a 360-
degree sound dispersion, rendering the concept of specific speaker orientation
irrelevant when optimizing your audio setup.
Equal Spacing: In scenarios with multiple omnidirectional speakers, arrange them
equidistantly around the room. This practice preserves a uniform sound distribution,
fostering a harmonious auditory experience.
Room Acoustics: Pay attention to your room's acoustic attributes. Incorporating soft
furnishings, carpets, and curtains can diminish reflections and enhance overall
sound quality.
