ENGLISH
There are two pairs of terminals at the back of each
speaker that enable bi-wiring (top left). For single wire
connection, t the supplied link wires to join the like
polarity terminals together. Bi-wiring can improve the
resolution of low-level detail.
Ensure that the positive terminals on the speaker (with
red ring) are connected to the positive output terminal
on the amplier and the negative terminals on the
speaker (with black ring) are always connected to the
negative output terminal on the amplier. Incorrect
connection will not result in damage but will cause poor
stereo imaging and loss of bass. Always screw the
terminal caps down fully to prevent rattles.
Before ne tuning, make sure that all the connections
in the installation are correct and secure.
Moving the speakers further from the walls will
generally reduce the volume of bass. Space behind the
speakers will also help to create an aural impression of
depth. Conversely, moving the speakers closer to the
walls will increase the volume of bass.
If the bass seems uneven with frequency this will most
probably be due to resonance modes in the listening
room. Even small changes in the position of the
speakers or the listening position can have a profound
effect on how these resonances affect the sound.
Try moving the listening position or locating the
speakers along a different wall. The presence and
position of large pieces of furniture can also inuence
resonance modes.
If the central image lacks focus, try moving the
speakers closer together or angle them inward
so that they point at a location just in front of the
listening position.
If the sound is too bright, increasing the amount of
soft furnishing in the room (heavier curtains for
example) may help balance the sound. Conversely,
reducing the amount of soft furnishing may help
brighten a dull sound.
For the most discerning listening, remove the bass/
midrange grilles by gripping around their edges and
gently pulling them away from the cabinet.
The performance of the speaker will change subtly
during the initial listening period. If the speaker has
been stored in a cold environment, the damping
compounds and suspension materials of the drive units
will take some time to recover their correct mechanical
properties. The drive unit suspensions will also loosen
up during the rst hours of use. The time taken for
the speaker to achieve its intended performance will
vary depending on previous storage conditions and
how it is used. As a guide, allow up to a week for
the temperature effects to stabilise and 15 hours of
average use for the mechanical parts to attain their
intended design characteristics.
