To unpack:
Move the (boxed) loudspeaker to an uncluttered area adjacent to its eventual
position (this will avoid any excessive moving and carrying of unpacked
loudspeakers).
Stand the loudspeaker box on its base.
Very carefully cut the bands holding the end-caps in place.
Lift off the top end-cap.
Remove the cardboard sleeve by lifting it straight up until it clears the top of the
cabinet.
Lift the loudspeaker out of the base end-cap and remove its protective bag.
We recommend that you retain the packaging in case you need to transport the
ARTIKULAT 345 loudspeaker at a later date.

The ARTIKULAT 345 loudspeaker can be placed anywhere you find convenient but
please consider the following points:
The ARTIKULAT 345 loudspeaker is best suited to be positioned on a floor, not a
table, shelf etc. It is heavy and must be stably supported.
For best results, position your ARTIKULAT 345 loudspeaker as close as possible to
either your left front or right front loudspeaker.
Bass notes will be accentuated if the ARTIKULAT 345 loudspeaker is positioned
close to a wall or in a corner.
Experimenting with the position may be necessary in order to match the sound of the
ARTIKULAT 345 loudspeaker with other loudspeakers in your system and the
acoustics of the room.
