Instruction Manual

For your own safety, it is important to read the
instruction before operating the appliance.
001
Please keep the safety and operating instructions for future reference.
Keep the packaging just in case you wish to return your speakers for any reason.
The appliance should not be used near water, for example near a bath, bowl, kitchen sink etc.
The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators etc or other appliances
that produce heat.
The speaker should only be connected to a suitable amplifier strictly as shown in the connection
diagram.
Each speaker contains a powerul magnet. It is imporant to keep them away from sensitive equip-
ment for example cathode ray tube (used in old style televisions).
Keep hear pacemakers at least 15 cm from the speakers.
Unpacking
Be careful not to damage the contents when you unpack you speakers.
Be careful not to touch and damage the speaker cones. These are very delicate.
Check that all items listed on the packing note are in the packing box.
Keep the packaging materials should your speaker need to be relocated or serviced.
Cleaning.
Use only a sof dry cloth to wipe of dust and finger marks.

Connections
002
The correct connection to your amplifier is exremely imporant for your listening experience. Ideally
you should use cables of the same type and length for lef and right channels.
A rough guide to cable size is:
Cable lengths up to 10 metres, use 1.5mm (16awg)
Cable lengths up to 22 metres, use 2.5mm (14awg)
This is only a guide. If you only have 1.5mm cable, 11 metres long you will not notice much diference.
But we do recommend you use good quality speaker cable.
The red (+) terminal of the amplifier must be connected to the red (+) terminal of the loudspeak-
er. The black (-) terminal of the amplifier must be connected to the black (-) terminal of the
loudspeaker. If one loudspeaker is reverse connected it will make a considerable diference to your
listening experience
For the optimal listening experience, the right loudspeaker (as seen from the listening position) must
be connected to the amplifier output terminals marked “R” or “Right”. The lef loudspeaker must be
connected to the amplifier output terminals marked “L” or “Lef”. NOTE: Before connecting cables or
changing any connections, turn of your amplifier.
NOTE: Make sure that the bare conductors are tightly twisted and gripped by the terminals with no
loose wires which could cause a shor circuit and damage your amplifier.

003
Speaker placement
Try to get about 1.5 metres of separation of the speakers. If your speakers are too close, sounds will
blend together and become muddy. If they are too far apar, there will be a gap between the two
halves of the stereo image.
Tow in
You want your front lef and right speakers to focus their sound field at your listening position. An-
gle your speakers slightly towards your seating position. The front silver speaker should ideally be at
ear level when you are seated. Play around with how far your speakers are from the wall.
Ideally the speakers should be at least 60-90cm away from the nearest wall. The speakers have
rear-facing bass pors. Positioning a rear bass por too close to the wall will reflect sound waves,
resuling in a distored bass. Again, play around with the position. If the speakers must be close to
the wall inser foam plug into each por.

004
Amplier power
We recommend an amplifier between 30 and 100 wats. Your speaker has a peak operating power
of around 60 wats (28 wats continuous)
It can be argued that it is beter to have an amplifier that is more powerul than the speaker ratings,
rather than less. This is because you can easily limit the amount of volume you send to the speak-
ers with the volume control. You will hear the distorion if you are staring to reach the limits of the
speakers so just back of a bit before you do any serious damage. This is of course if you want high
volumes. Usually normal listening levels will be perhaps 3 to 10 wats.
Caution
Overloading the speakers with very high volumes (except for shor periods) will cause irreparable
damage and is not covered by the warranty.
