Unpacking and Assembly
Unpacking the Speakers
Use care when unpacking the speakers. Since the grilles are packed off the
speakers, be particularly careful of the driver elements as you unpack and
move the speakers. Remember to keep the original boxes and packing mate-
rial, in the unlikely event the speakers need servicing, or if you move.
Attaching the Grilles
The included metal grilles are held to the front of the enclosures with power-
ful neodymium magnets. There are depressions on the back of the grille that
the magnets fit into. Once the speakers are in their final position, remove
the grille from its protective plastic bag and carefully position it over the
magnets on the baffle.
Move them together slowly and when you get close enough, the magnets
will draw the grille in and hold it tight. Be careful not to get your fingers
caught between the grille and the cabinet.
Using the AT-2 on Speaker Stands
Many high-quality speaker stands—like the Sanus® Ultimate
Foundations®--use a through-bolt that goes through the stand’s top plate
and attaches to a ¼”-20 threaded insert in the bottom of the speaker. If you
are using speaker stands with your AT-2’s, we suggest using this type of
stand, since it provides the most rigid assembly for the best acoustic perfor-
mance, and the most secure installation for maximum safety. (See figure 1)
