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 speak-
ers.
Mounting
You can
fi
nd special assembly materials (cords, speaker
stands, wall brackets and resonance dampers) adapted to
these speakers in our webshop.
A threaded hole on the bottom of the speaker is used for
mounting the S 700 FCR speakers to a speaker stand. Upon
shipment, the threaded hole has a screw inserted, which you
will have to unscrew before assembly.
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 out of the socket.
• Lay the speaker cables from your AV receiver to each speak-
er. These cables should be high-quality double-wire speaker
cable with marked strands. The cross section should amount
to at least 1.5 mm
2
.
• A connector comprising two terminals is located on the
back side of each 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 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 cables to the other speaker in the same way.
5. Connect the speaker cables to your AV receiver. The operat-
ing instructions of the appliance should contain notes on
this.
Protective grid
Attention
Danger of damage!
Improper handling of the device can cause dam-
age.
• Make sure that you do not touch the very sensitive dia-
phragms.
If you position the front speakers behind a screen, remove the
protective grid in order to compensate for the potential absorp-
tion of high frequencies by the screen.
Crossover frequency
The ideal separation frequency on the AV ampli
fi
er for this
speaker is 80 Hz.
