Models T70 LR, T70 C, and T70 SR
Mounting
The T70 LR and SR speakers can be mounted in a variety of ways:
On a bookshelf
Self-adhesive rubber feet to protect the speaker and the shelf are included.
On speaker stands
Atlantic Technology’s optional ST 166 speaker stands provide an ideal height
(29" above the floor) for most rooms. There are 1/4" x 20 bolts included in the stand hardware package
that screw into the matching inserts in the back of the speakers. This makes for an exceptionally secure
and solid stand mounting system.
On the wall
To mount your speakers on a wall, we have supplied metal keyhole brackets that attach to
the back of the speakers. You’ll need to turn the speakers over and attach the keyhole bracket to the
1/4" x 20 threaded insert on the back of the enclosure, using the supplied 1/4" x 20 bolts.
Be sure to use a strong wall mounting screw whose head and shaft will fit within the keyhole bracket
opening. Also, be sure to drive the screw well into a stud or use a mounting device (such a molly-bolt)
that is capable of holding the weight of the speaker. Never simply drive a nail or screw into sheet rock
or other wall materials. Always follow these guidelines for safe speaker mounting.
Important Note:
Small self-adhesive rubber pads are supplied with your speakers. They should be used as
“feet” when the speakers sit on a shelf, or on stands. When you use the keyhole mounts, place these pads
on the lower rear of the enclosure, using a double thickness (one pad on top of another). This will keep the
speaker level when hanging and stop it from vibrating on the wall. Atlantic also offers an optional pivoting
wall bracket (AT 157WB) available from your dealer.
Listening Levels and Power Handling—IMPORTANT!
The power recommendation for these speakers assumes that you will not operate your amplifier/
receiver in a way that produces distortion. Any speaker can be damaged by a moderately powered
system driven beyond its intended capacity. The harsh amplifier “clipping” that occurs in this
situation will inevitably cause damage to the speaker system. This type of damage is easily identifiable
through examination of the speaker’s voice coil and is not covered by warranty or service agreement.
Care and Feeding of Your Speakers
Clean your speaker cabinets using a soft cloth moistened with a mild, non-abrasive glass cleaner being
careful not to wet the edges of the cabinet. Also, be careful not to get any cleaning fluids on the driver
cones or domes. It’s best to dampen the cloth with the cleaner and then wipe the speakers. After care-
fully removing the grilles from the speakers by pulling them forward, gently clean them with a quick
pass from a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment. This should remove any dust accumulation. Re-
attach them by lining up the pegs on the front of the speakers with the holes in the grilles and
pushing firmly but carefully. Avoid placing your speakers in direct sunlight or near a source of heat
that may, over time, damage the finish.
Important: Save Your Boxes!
If you can do so, save the cartons, packing pieces, and plastic bags that
came with your speakers. They will be useful in case you move or have to ship your loudspeakers for any
reason. In any case, save all packing materials until you are certain that the speakers have suffered no
damage in shipment. If you find such damage, either visible or internal, contact your dealer immediately for
the proper return procedure.
