1. INTRODUCTION
Thank you for selecting the German Physiks PQS-100 Plus loudspeakers for your audio system. The
PQS-100 Plus is a 2 way design that uses a single DDD driver coupled with a downward firing sub-
woofer. It is intended for use in both 2 channel and high-end home theatre systems. It is designed to be
mounted on the supplied PQS-Plus stands. The PQS-100 Plus is entirely handmade and is built and
tested by highly skilled technicians at our factory in Germany.
Every step in the design and manufacture of this product has been dedicated to producing a loudspeaker
that will provide a lifetime of musical enjoyment.
We strongly recommend that you read this manual before attempting to use the loudspeakers.
2. UNPACKING YOUR LOUDSPEAKERS
NOTE:
When lifting the loudspeakers out of the packing, hold them by the
upper plate. Do not lift them by the DDD support pillars (see figure 1)
as this may damage the driver.
The DDD drivers may be protected with a clear film cover. This should
be left in place until the loudspeakers have been placed in their final
location, so as to guard against accidental damage during handling.
The loudspeakers are packed in separate cartons. The stands are packed together in a third carton.
Before opening the cartons, please inspect them for damage. If you see any damage, contact the
supplying audio dealer immediately and give them a full description of the damage. Do not attempt to
unpack the cartons until you have spoken with the dealer and have been advised how to proceed.
Please retain all of the packing as you will need this should it be necessary in the future to ship the
loudspeakers. The use of any other packing may result in the loudspeakers sustaining damage in
transit. Such damage is not covered by the warranty. Should you require replacement packing, please
contact your German Physiks dealer, the national distributor or the factory directly.
