Setup and connection
Setup
Note
Our website contains comprehensive notes for correct setup.
• Select a stable, level base.
• Make sure that the environment is clean and free from dust.
• Avoid placing the unit close to sources of heat or in direct
sunlight.
• Arrange the connector cables so that they do not pose a trip
hazard.
• Do not place any heavy objects on the cables or the speaker.
Tabletop stand
The tabletop stand ensures a safe position of the speaker and
it minimises vibrations. An assembly is not required: Place the
speaker on the tabletop stand such that it rests on all six rubber
plates.
Wall mounting
Danger
Risk of damage!
Improper assembly may result in damage.
• If mounting the speakers on the wall, make sure that the
installation is carried out expertly.
• Before drilling the holes, make sure that no pipes are
located within the drilling area using a metal detector.
• Only use suitable screws and dowels to mount the speak-
ers. Verify the carrying capacity of the walls.
• Hang the center speaker up on the wall using the keyhole
openings on the speaker back side and the screws you previ-
ously mounted.
• You can also use these openings for mounting a wall holder.
You can find suitable products for this in our web shop.
Connecting
Danger
Danger of injury/damage!
Arrange the cables so that they do not pose a
trip hazard.
• Pull the power plug of your AV receiver or multi-channel ac-
tive subwoofer out of the socket.
• Lay the speaker cables from your AV receiver or multi-chan-
nel active subwoofer to the speaker. These cables should be
high-quality double-wire speaker cable with marked strands.
The cross section should amount to 1.5 to 4 mm
2
.
• A connector comprising two terminals is located on the
back side of the speaker, to which you have to connect the
speaker cables.
• The terminal clips are each marked red (+) and black (-).
Make sure the polarity is correct!
Connect the like coloured terminals. Otherwise, the
sound quality will suffer.
The speaker connections of your AV receiver or multi-channel
active subwoofer should be marked similarly. The strands
of the speaker cables are marked with different colours or
shapes.
1. Split the single wire down to approx. 30 mm on both ends
and strip approx. 10 mm of insulation off of each cord.
2. Twist the stripped single wire ends together so that no wire
protrudes. Tin coating is not necessary.
3. Turn the connector terminal counterclockwise until loose.
Run the stripped cable end into the now visible hole. Close
the terminal by turning it counterclockwise. The cable has
now been clamped in place.
4. Connect the speaker cable to your AV receiver or multi-
channel active subwoofer. The operating instructions of the
appliance should contain notes on this.
Crossover frequency
The ideal separation frequency on the AV preamplifier/receiver
or DecoderStation for the center speaker L 330 C is 120 Hz.
