POSITIONING
ENERAL INFORMATION If you have chosen to install your
KANs yourself, follow the detailed INSTALLATION GUIDE
on page 8. If you have any problems, please ask your Linn
G
retailer to help. Linn retailers and their staff have been extensively
trained to ensure that they have the knowledge and expertise to get
the best possible sound from our equipment, so it makes sense for
you to call on this skill whenever you need it.
STANDS
All loudspeakers perform best when rigidly mounted. If you are going
to use floor stands to support your KANs, remember that the
loudspeaker sockets are towards the top of the rear panel -be careful
not to 'spike' the top of the speaker cabinets.
BOOKSHELVES
If you wish to install your loudspeakers on shelves, we have supplied
self-adhesive rubber feet which should be fixed to the bottom of the
cabinet close to the corners.
WALL MOUNTING
If you want to mount your loudspeakers on the wall, we recommend
you use the Linn BRAKIT wall-mounting brackets. The Linn BRAKIT
has been designed to be a rigid and strong support and allows the
loudspeakers to be angled both vertically and horizontally. The
speakers are held close to the wall and the BRAKIT is hidden behind
the speakers.
Full installation instructions and fixings are supplied with the BRAKITs.
GRILLES
The KAN grille has no frame and fits directly onto the front baffle.
This avoids the problems of rattling and diffraction which a frame can
induce.
