Owner's Manual Focus XD

 Adjusting the loudspeaker’s sound / Connecting the voltage supply

The sound of Focus XD loudspeakers can 
be adjusted by increasing or lowering high 
and low frequencies. Each loudspeaker 
can be set separately and individually 
based on the room conditions and 
personal listening preferences.

Adjusting the low-frequency range

The 

Speaker Position

 rotary knob allows 

you to lower low frequencies. This allows 
you to balance out elevated or cancelled-
out low-frequency signal portions, as they 
often occur in living spaces.

 

Set the 

Speaker Position

 rotary knob 

to the desired position on the back side 
of the housing for each loudspeaker. 
There are 2 additional intermediate 
stages between each of the main 
positions that click into place (Neutral, 
Wall, and Corner).

–– 

Neutral

: free-standing loudspeaker (no 

change to sound).

–– 

Wall

: if placed near a wall.

–– 

Corner

: if placed in a corner.

Adjusting the treble

Using the 

Treble

 switch on the rear side 

of the housing allows you to adjust the 
character of the sound to your listening 
preferences.

 

Set the 

Treble

 switch on the rear side 

of the housing to one of three settings:

• 

+1 dB: Increase, creates a somewhat 
brighter sound.

• 

0 dB: Neutral position, no change.

• 

–1 dB: Lowering, creates a somewhat 
warmer sound.

 

Use the supplied power cable to 
connect the loudspeakers to the mains 
voltage and switch it on using the 
power switch (POWER) on the rear 
(position: I).

Switching on/standby mode

To switch the loudspeaker on from 
standby mode:

 

Point the remote control at the 
loudspeaker and press the 

ON

 button. 

The loudspeaker will automatically 
search for an audio signal or an 
active hub. If found, the signal will be 
output.

 If there is no input signal, the 

loudspeaker will go into standby mode 
after a certain period.

 

To switch it back on, press 

ON

 or start 

music playback.

To switch a loudspeaker out of 
operation to standby mode:

 

Point the remote control at the 
loudspeaker and press the 

OFF

 

button. 

The loudspeaker will go into 

standby mode. To completely switch 
off the loudspeaker, turn the 

POWER

 

switch on the rear to 

O

. However, the 

loudspeaker can then no longer be 
switched on via the remote control.

Adjusting the 

loudspeakers’ 

sound

Connecting the 

voltage supply

Note

Before connecting the device, 
check whether the mains voltage 
listed on the rear side of the 
speakers matches that present at 
the installation site.
