Floor-standing loudspeaker set-up
The floor-standing Excite speakers feature a special base construction, which offers both
an ideal performance and mechanical basis. Integrated into the base plinth are four
individual spike assemblies. These stabilize the cabinet on an extremely small contact
area, and therefore prevent any wobbling while offering optimal resonance control.The
individually adjustable spikes allow leveling of the cabinet on uneven floors.
Compact loudspeaker set-up
The compact Excite models are designed to offer exceptional performance while taking
up minimal space. The mini-monitors will realize their optimum performance when used
in conjunction with a dedicated stand (such as the Dynaudio Stands) to position them at
the proper height while absorbing any resonance.
Due to its dimensions, you can also place the loudspeaker on a ledge or shelf or on top
of furniture. But to avoid the possibility of any negative influence on sound quality, one
should take care to utilize a stable surface offering a wide enough space in front of the
loudspeakers as to not limit the sound quality and performance. In such applications or if
placing the speakers in enclosed audio/video furniture, the bass reflex port can usually be
left unplugged as long as there is minimal clearance to the boundaries at the top and rear
of the loudspeaker cabinet, as the speakers will measure and perform as would a front
ported version due to the specific tuning of the drivers.
CAUTION
SPIKES WITH SHARP PEAKS
The sharp peaks of the spikes may cause injuries and damage sensitive surfaces like
hardwood flooring or tile.

Be careful when handling the loudspeakers.

Place plates between the spikes and the surface to protect the underlying surface.
(
Note:
The spike will not destroy a carpet surface.)
