Unpacking and Installing the L75m
The
Wisdom Audio Sage L75m
freestanding speaker is a substantial piece of equipment.
Please exercise caution when unpacking your L75m to ensure that you do not strain
yourself from its (perhaps unexpected) weight.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to lift your L75m while bending or twisting from the waist.
Use your legs for lifting, not your back. Always stand as straight as possible and keep the
L75m close to your body to reduce strain on your back.
The speaker is shipped in a “telescoping” box (two five-sided boxes, one of which fits
snugly inside the other). Gently roll the box over so that its bottom is facing up. Then
carefully cut the tape along the bottom of the box on all four sides. Roll the box over
again so the bottom is on the floor and lift off the top. With one person at each end,
carefully lift the speaker out of the box and lay it on a soft surface (carpet or similar).
We do not recommend removing the grille on your new loudspeakers. The grille is an
integral part of the design; moreover, the planar magnetic film should never be
touched, as it is tensioned precisely at the factory. The grille plays an important
protective role as well as an aesthetic one.
After unpacking your L75m, keep all packing materials for future transport.
If you need
to ship your speaker, only the original, purpose-designed shipping carton is acceptable.
Any other method of shipping this product runs a significant risk of damage to the
speaker – damage that would not be covered by the warranty. (If you lose your
packaging and need
to ship your speakers, replacement packaging can be purchased
from Wisdom Audio.)
Mounting the L75m on the Wall
The mounting bracket that mounts to the wall is shipped attached to the back of the
loudspeaker. It is removed by pulling “down” on it relative to the end of the speaker
that will be “up” when installed on the wall. (Note that for horizontal center channel
speakers, this means the bracket is pulled
across
the narrow dimension of the speaker.)
It is recommended to place a screw into every open mounting hole so to avoid the
bracket possibility resonating once the speaker is mounted to the wall.
