Setting up
For near-field or desktop use, space speakers apart for adequate stereo
separation depending on proximity to the listener. For installations using the
supplied wall-mount brackets, attach the brackets to a solid surface using
fixings which are sufficient to hold the weight of the active speaker. Take
care to mount the active unit close enough to a mains outlet for the supplied
adaptor to reach.
Fix the speaker units to the brackets at top and bottom using the supplied
screw caps. Each can be rotated to aim the general direction of sound output.
If the speakers are mounted at height or where falling objects may be
hazardous, it is advised to attach a secondary means of support (e.g. drop-
wire or chain)
Operation
Link the satellite speaker to the spring terminals on the powered speaker (5)
using the supplied speaker lead (connecting red to red and black to black)
With the rotary VOLUME (3) control set to minimum and TREBLE and BASS controls
(1, 2) set to the vertical (12 o’clock) position, connect the attached mains
lead (7) to a suitable mains outlet. Connect the source signal into the active
unit via the L+R RCA connectors (4). Switch the power on (6) and gradually
turn the rotary VOLUME control clockwise and increase volume level to the
required amount.
Adjust TREBLE (2) and BASS (1) controls to provide the desired tonal response.
The centre position is unaffected, to the left is cut and to the right is
boost.
Turn down the rotary VOLUME control before switching off.
