Owner’s Manual

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing these Cambridge Audio SX-50 stand mount loudspeakers. We hope that you enjoy many years of listening pleasure from them. Your loudspeakers can only be as good as the system it is connected to. Please do not compromise on your amplifier or cabling. Naturally we particularly recommend amplification from the Cambridge Audio range, which has been designed to the same exacting standards as our loudspeakers.
Your dealer can also supply excellent quality speaker cable to ensure your system realises its full potential.
Thank you for taking the time to read this manual; we do recommend you keep it for future reference.

CABLING

Connect speakers to your amplifier/receiver with high quality speaker cable.
IMPORTANT! Ensure positive (+) and negative (-) connections are matched.

STAND MOUNTING

For best results, use with dedicated speaker stands.
If used on a sturdy shelf, allow ample space behind the speaker (minimum 5cm).

POSITIONING

Ideally the speakers and listening position should be located equal distances apart, but feel free to experiment with positioning until you are happy with the sound.

If the speakers are placed on a desk or close to a wall, the bass may become too strong. We have provided foam bass tuning bungs that will reduce bass output when inserted into the ports.
