THE VC 2 SPEAKER SET 

The VC 2 set includes two front speakers as well as a subwoofer. These speakers have 
been adapted to perfectly match the VC 2 and  we recommend to use these speakers 
together with the VC 2 CD receiver only. 
 

POSITIONING OF THE FRONT SPEAKERS 

The front loudspeakers are positioned at ear height on the left and right as equidistant from  
the television as possible. There should be a clear line of sight between the loudspeakers  
and the listening position. Any sound-absorbing or reflecting obstacles in the path will distort  
the sound. 

The speakers can be placed on a shelf or a sideboard. Please fix the supplied self-adhesive 
rubber pucks on the bottom side of the speakers (4 pieces per speaker).  
The front speakers are provided with a bracket for wall mounting at the rear. Insert a 
suitable screw, which can be used to mount the speaker, into a load-bearing wall. We 
recommend to fix the supplied rubber pucks on the rear side of the speakers to grant a 
certain distance between the box and the wall. 
 

POSITIONING OF THE SUBWOOFER 

The  frequency  range  reproduced  by  the  subwoofer cannot be  pinpointed  by  the human  
ear. That's why positioning generally  doesn't present any problems. However, it is  
preferable to place the speaker close to the front loudspeaker in front  of the listening  
position. You should also make sure that the distance from the sides and from the rear to  
items and walls is at least 25 centimetres as otherwise bass reproduction may be impaired. 

 
 

VARIOUS CONNECTION POSSIBILITIES 

 

 Only connect the mains cable when all connections have been made. 

 When  making  the  connections,  observe  the  manuals  of  the  other 

components 

 With cables, heed the quality. The HDMI cable in particular should 

absolutely be HDMI-certified.

FRONT SPEAKERS AND SUBWOOFER 

The VC 2 set comes with prefabricated speaker cables for the two front speakers (2x3m)  
and the subwoofer (1x5m). If possible, use these cables when connecting the speakers.  
If required, you can shorten and strip the cables yourself. Please note that the cables for 
the front speakers should be the same length. If you need longer cables, do not extend the 
cables  supplied,  but  purchase  new,  equivalent  cables  in  the  desired  length  from  a 
specialised store. 

Loosen  the  terminal  screws  of  the  speakers  one after the  other  and  insert  the  stripped  
ends into the designated holes. Then re-tighten the terminal screws. Please ensure that  
any protruding wires do not cause a short circuit. Then connect the other end of the cable 
to the connecting terminals on the VC 2 unit in the same way. Make sure you pay attention 
to the correct polarity. 

 

ANTENNAS 

Connect the FM indoor antenna to the FM antenna socket. If you have one, use the house 
antenna  system.  This generally  offers  better  reception.  For  this,  use  a commercial  IEC 
antenna cable. 

To use the MW receiver, connect the included frame antenna to the AM antenna input. 

Direct the antenna so that the best possible reception is guaranteed. 

 

AUXILIARY AUDIO DEVICES 

If the devices have a digital output, you should use it and connect it to one of the digital  
inputs of the VC 2, either with a coax cable (75 ohms) or with an optical cable.  
You can connect devices with analog output via a RCA line with the Aux outputs of the  
VC 2.
