placing on high mass loaded stand in free space can 
offer an increase in perceived space and depth of 
playback material.  

Note: the connections on the back of the speaker are 
single wire with 4mm banana sockets. The correct 
frequency response ( tonal balance ) is achieved with 
the grilles in place. Removal of the grilles will 
compromise high frequency and mid frequency 
performance.  

 

Switch off the amplifier. Identify the left speaker of 
the pair as the speaker on the left when viewed from 
the listening position.  

Connect the black terminal on the amplifier left 
channel to the black terminal on the left loudspeaker. 
Then connect the red terminal on the amplifier left to 
the red terminal on the left loudspeaker. Repeat these 
connections for the right-hand channel. Check the 
integrity of the connections and that there are no 
shorted wires. Turn down the volume and switch on the 
amplifier. Select a known source and turn up the volume 
cautiously.  

 

New speakers require a “break in” per

iod. This enables 

the drive units to settle into their normal working 
routine and electrical components in the crossover to 

“bed in”. A minimum of fifty hours playing will see the 
speakers “broken in” additional playing will continue 

to improve the overall sound quality.  

 

Connecting cables can have an important effect on the 
final sound quality. Similar lengths of good quality 
speaker cable should be used. Your dealer can best 
advise you of suitable cables for your installation.
