GETTING STARTED
3.1 UNPACKING ORCHESTRA SLIM
- Take the ORCHESTRA SLIM out of the packaging and check whether the ORCHESTRA SLIM or the individual parts exhibit damages. If this is the case, do not use the ORCHESTRA SLIM. Should you detect any damage, contact your dealer or sonoro audio GmbH customer support immediately.
- Check to make sure that the delivery is complete (2 speakers, 2 speaker meshes, 2 bass plugs).
- Place the ORCHESTRA SLIM at a suitable and safe location. If you want to put your ORCHESTRA SLIM on a natural wood surface, please make sure that it is suitable. On oiled and waxed surfaces, stains may occur.
- Do not touch or push the woofer and tweeter on the front of ORCHESTRA SLIM. This can destroy the speaker.
ORCHESTRA SLIM can be connected to amplifer as show below. To avoid short
circuits, please first switch off the amplifier to which you want to connect
your ORCHESTRA SLIM. Connect the right speaker to the right and left speaker
to the left channel of your amplifier. Be careful not to reverse the polarity
of + and –.
When connecting the speaker cable, take
notice of the followings:
- Do not let the bare wires of the speaker cable touch one another.
- Do not let the bare wires of the speaker cable come into contact with ORCHESTRA SLIM‘s rear panel and screws.
3.2 REMOVE THE SPEAKER GRILLE
The speakers are covered with a removable magnetic grille.
The speakers can be operated with or without the speaker grille.
3.3 LOCATING ORCHESTRA SLIM
The distance between the speakers and the distance to your listening position
should form an isosceles triangle. a = b = c
When you are in your preferred listening position, the tweeter of
your ORCHESTRA SLIM speakers should be at the same height as your ears.. d = e
3.4 BASS PORT PLUG
If you need to place your speakers too close to the back wall or on a shelf, the bass may be perceived as too strong. In this case, inserting the foam plug into the bass reflex tube may improve the sound. Please never push the plug completely into the bass reflex tube!

- All other cleaning methods may damage your ORCHESTRA SLIM.
