The Project Everest DD66000 requires right or left speaker designation,
depending on installed locations. Once speaker locations are decided upon,
please refer to System Orientation in Chapter 7, in order to set it up.
Caution: Project Everest DD66000 is a massive system, consisting of materials
chosen for their density, with its weight concentrated in a relatively narrow
area. Verify the integrity of the floor surface before placing and setting up the
speakers. See Floor Requirements (below). Remember that these speakers
weigh close to 308 lb (140kg) each and cannot be easily moved, once they are
installed.
Floor Requirements
The floor at the location selected for setting up the Project Everest DD66000
speakers must be capable of supporting a load of 308 lb (140kg). Because of
the coupling effect of the stainless-steel feet, a flat, hard surface such as wood
or linoleum is preferable. However, the design of the loudspeakers’ coupling
system, along with the speakers’ substantial weight, should result in excellent
performance on any surface, even on carpets.
To prevent indentations on wood or linoleum floors, caused by the weight of
the loudspeakers, always utilize the enclosed coasters. Do not set up the Project
Everest DD66000 system directly on a ceramic tile floor; the concentrated
weight might cause the tiles to crack.
