Insert the large hexagonal ALLEN key supplied and turn it in one or other direction to raise or lower the 
spikes. Check the speaker is level with a spirit level. Adjust the spikes to avoid any wobbling.  When the 
position, height and level are approximately set, put the Tommy bar into the cross-hole in the small conical 
locking device at the bottom and turn it anti-clockwise. Turn the Allen key in the top of the spike clockwise 
at the same time and this will tighten the whole assembly and lock the spike in position. Do this to each 
corner in turn.  When you feel the position is right, fit the cosmetic discs to the top of the washers on each 
corner of the plinth. Twist them by hand until finger tight. If you need to adjust the height or change the 
angle of the loudspeakers again, remove all the cosmetic discs to reveal the hexagonal sockets at the top of 
the spikes again.

CONNECTION

 

Ensure that your amplifier is switched off before you make, or break, any connections, because damage may 
occur to your amplifier if shorted. 

Your Epos loudspeakers are equipped with high quality insulated binding posts, with excellent electrical 
contact and current specification. The posts are connected to the individual drivers as denoted on the rear 
panel label. 

The metal links between the terminals join the bass, midrange and treble drive units together enabling 
conventional wiring, with a single high-quality speaker cable if required. Bi-wiring and bi-amping, tri-wiring 
and tri-amping is possible. These techniques often bring benefits, in terms of increased clarity and 
definition.   Use only high grade speaker cables. For the best results, keep the cables no longer than 
required.

CONVENTIONAL CONNECTION

 (Single high quality speaker cable)
