[V626 FOOT INSTALLATION]
The V626 Tower Speaker comes with four feet that mount to the bottom of the unit. To mount the feet, turn the speaker over, place each
foot in place on a corner of the unit so that the screw holes line up with the threaded inserts on the speaker, and attach the feet using the
provided screws. Do not over tighten.
[V626 FLOOR SPIKES]
Floor spikes are provided with V626 speakers to steady the speaker cabinets, especially on carpeting and uneven floor surfaces. Because
most speakers tend to rock back and forth in small increments due to the force of the in/out motions of speaker drivers, these movements
can affect the speakers’ performance. Attach the floor spikes by screwing them into the pre-drilled holes in the base of the speaker (they will
attach through the speaker feet; be sure to attach feet first) and tighten the nuts securely. The sharp points will penetrate the carpet to make
a more solid contract with the underlying floor surface.
If your floor is not rigid, the spikes may actually add to the rocking motion, so we recommend you audition the speakers with and without the
spikes inserted to see if you discover a personal preference in the sound quality. Be especially careful when moving speaker cabinets with the
spikes attached, as the points could damage carpeting or scratch floors.
[TABLE TOP OR SHELF PLACEMENT]
Included with your Phase Velocity speaker are self adhesive bumpers that can be used on the bottom of the speaker to protect the finish
and surface when placing it on a shelf or table top. Simply peel off the bumpers from the backing paper and apply them to the bottom of the
speaker.
[V-5520 BUMPER INSTALLATION]
Apply 2 of the adhesive bumpers to the 2 front corners of the speaker. Insert one of the 2 supplied 6 mm Phillips screws through the recessed
hole of the plastic legs, and screw the legs to the bottom of the speaker cabinet insert locations. Adjust the angled end of the leg so it will set
level on your shelf or table top before tightening the screws completely. For vertical placement, apply the 4 adhesive bumpers to one end of
the speaker, placing them at the corners of the cabinet.
[STEREO (TWO-CHANNEL) OPERATION - FIRST LISTENING]
Play a stereo CD that contains a strong solo vocalist. Sit at your normal listening position and listen to the singer. If the artist sounds “center
stage” with music coming between the speakers, the speakers are in phase. If vocals sound as if they are coming from the two sides or are
not focused in the central area, the speakers may be out of phase. In this event, turn off the power, unplug your amplifier or receiver and
check that the leads are hooked up correctly. Then, turn everything on and listen again. When the sound is natural and the soloist appears to
be in the middle of the sound stage, the speakers are in phase.
[TWO-CHANNEL SPEAKER PLACEMENT]
Phase Technology speakers utilize our Absolute Phase
®
crossover network. This design permits a much wider vertical output pattern than
conventional speakers, allowing you to achieve the best quality musical experience regardless of speaker placement. Your speakers can be
placed either vertically or horizontally on a bookshelf and will provide seamless transition of sound from one speaker to another even if the
speakers cannot be placed at the traditional “ear level” height recommended by most manufacturers.
In most rectangular rooms speakers sound best when placed along one of the short walls. Begin by placing the speakers 1 – 3 feet away from
the wall and approximately 6 – 8 feet apart. The exact final placement will be determined by how far away you are sitting from the speakers
and other interior environmental factors. We suggest playing a familiar piece of music and adjusting the placement of the speakers until the
desired sound is achieved.
Sometimes larger bookshelf speakers will sound better when placed upon stands designed expressly for the purpose of supporting them
above floor level (not included). By “de-coupling” the speaker cabinet from the floor, bass frequencies are tighter and high frequencies more
distinct. Smaller speakers can be placed in bookshelves or cabinets; however, some loss of imaging may be experienced.
