Connections
To connect your speaker to your receiver you will need
standard 2-conductor, stranded speaker wire.
Preparing the Wire
1) Split the last 4” of your speaker wire into two
separate strands.
2) Strip 1/2” of the shielding off of the end of each
wire (see figure A).
3) Twist the exposed copper strands with your fingers
until they are tightly unified. Be sure there are no
“flyaway” strands (see figure B).

If You’re Using Bare Wire
1) Unscrew the binding posts on the back of your
speaker by turning counter-clockwise.
2) Insert the bare speaker wire into the hole in
the binding post and tighten it securely by
turning clockwise (see figure C).
If You’re Using Banana Plugs
1) Be sure to follow the instructions for your
banana plugs to attach them to the wire.
2) Screw the binding posts in completely by
turning clockwise.
3) Insert the banana plugs into the open end of
the binding post (see figure D).
Note:
As you make your connections, be sure to
connect the positive terminals on your receiver to
the positive terminals on your speakers. Most
2-conductor wire has printing on one side to help
you differentiate between the two strands.
Placement Recommendations
Ideally, your Aperion Verus Forte Center Speaker
should be placed so that it’s centered either above
or below your screen. If you can’t center it
perfectly, just get as close to centered as possible.
You may also use a floor stand if that works better

Limited Warranty
Aperion Audio provides a
transferable ten (10) year limited
warranty on our speakers
; a
transferable three (3) year limited
warranty on our subwoofer amplifiers
; and a
non-transferable
lifetime limited warranty on our cables
. No other warranty,
implied or otherwise, is created or honored by Aperion Audio.
These warranties cover all defects in material and workmanship
with the following specific exceptions:
•Damage caused by improper installation or adjustment
•Damage caused by accident, unreasonable use, or neglect
•Damage caused by an act of God
•Damage from failure to follow instructions contained in the
Owner’s Manual
•Damage from repairs performed by someone not
authorized by Aperion Audio
•Any unit on which the serial number has been effaced,
modified, or removed
•Damage occurring during shipment, other than that
arranged by Aperion Audio
•Units which have been altered or modified in design,
appearance or construction
This warranty covers only the actual defects within the
products themselves. IT DOES NOT cover costs of
installation in (or removal from) a fixed installation, or normal
set-up, claims based on any misrepresentation by the seller,
or performance variations resulting from installation related
circumstances such as signal quality, AC power or
incompatibilities with other system components.
During the warranty period, Aperion Audio will, at its option,
either repair the defect, or replace the defective product, or the
defective parts, or components thereof with the then
current product/component in use by Aperion Audio, at no
charge to the owner for parts and labor covered by this
warranty. If necessary repairs are not covered by this warranty,
or if a unit is examined which is not in need of repair, you will
be charged for the repairs and/or the examination.
If non-warranted repairs are needed, we will notify you of the
estimated cost and ask for your authorization to perform said
repairs. You must pay shipping charges incurred in getting
your product to Aperion Audio. We will pay the return shipping
charges if the repairs are covered by the warranty. Please save
the original shipping cartons, as the unit MUST be returned
in the original carton and packing. (Replacement cartons are
available at a modest charge.)
