ARENA 180/170/130/120 – LEFT AND RIGHT CHANNELS
For best results, place the speakers 6 – 10 feet (1.8m – 3m) apart. Angling the speakers toward the listening position can improve
the stereo imaging. The speakers will produce the most accurate stereo soundstage when the angle between the listener and
the speakers is between 40 and 60 degrees.
Use the included carpet spikes for stability if you are placing your Arena 180/170 speakers on a thick rug or plush carpeting. The
carpet spikes can be manually screwed into each rubber foot on the base of the speaker.
CAUTION: Floorstanding (tower) loudspeakers have a high center of gravity and may become unstable
and tip over during earthquakes or if they are rocked, tipped or improperly positioned. Consider anchor-
ing these speakers to the wall behind them, using the procedures and hardware customary for anchor-
ing bookcases and wall units. You are responsible for proper installation and proper selection of hard-
ware.
PLACEMENT
•
Position Arena 130/120 shelf speakers so that their tweeters
are approximately at ear level. Peel off the adhesive backing
and apply 4 rubber feet to the corners on the bottom of
each speaker.

WALL-MOUNTING THE ARENA 120
We have designed the Arena 120 speakers to mount directly
onto a wall. Each speaker has two keyholes on the back and
will require two 1-1/2” (38mm), #10 wood screws fastened
to a wall stud. If a wall stud is unavailable, install an anchor
appropriate for a 1-1/2”, #10 screw.
NOTE: You are responsible for the correct selection and use
of mounting hardware (available through hardware stores)
that will ensure the proper and safe wall-mounting of the
speakers.
Keyholes
Rubber cushions
1) Using the included wall template, mark the positions on
the wall where you would like to place the mounting
screws.
2) Fasten two 1-1/2” (38mm), #10 wood screws to the wall
using the markings from Step 1 as your guide. Leave an
1/16” (1.59mm) space between the wall and screwhead.
If a wall stud is not available, use an appropriate anchor.
3) To protect wall, attach 4 rubber cushions (included) in
suggested locations.
4) Place the speaker on the wall by aligning the keyholes
on the back of the speaker to the screwheads on the
wall.
Once positioned properly, the speaker should slide
down slightly and become secure.
For best performance, we recommend that you place the
speakers at least 20 inches (51cm) away from the side walls.
Generally, bass output will increase as the speaker is moved
closer to a wall or corner.
