To get best results from your new Tannoy mercury Vi loudspeakers it is worthwhile spending a little time finding the
optimum set-up configuration.
Begin by angling the speakers towards your chosen listening position, usually this is on the centre line of the room,
so that when seated you can just see the inner side panel of each speaker. The front of the loudspeaker should not
be obstructed in any way. The loudspeakers should be located between 1.5 to 4.5 metres (5 ft to 15 ft) apart - with the
listening position set slightly further away than the speakers are apart. avoid positioning the loudspeakers in corners of
the room, as this will have a negative effect on performance. For optimum performance, we would recommend ideally
maintaining a distance of at least 0.5 metres (20 inches) from the rear wall, and 1 metre (39 inches) from the side.
However, there is no absolute right or wrong as it is much down to personal preference and the differing sizes and
acoustic properties of the listening environment. The speakers may be located close to the rear wall, in which case bass
will be increased at the expense of definition, and stereo soundstaging will be compromised. (See fig. 6)
For the floor standing V4i model in its listening position, rock the loudspeaker gently from side to side so that the spikes
find their way through the weave of the carpet and on to the solid surface below. once fine adjustments have been made
to the spikes, to level the loudspeaker and ensure stability, tighten the lock nuts firmly but without using undue force.
GRILLes
The mercury Vi grille has been designed to provide acoustic transparency. However, for ultimate fidelity the enthusiast
will appreciate the slight improvement in clarity and detail that is achieved by removing the grilles during listening.

The cabinets should only be cleaned with a dry cloth or with a light application of quality non-silicone furniture polish.
