rega MX-125 KYTE Loudspeaker Instruction Manual

KYTE

ASSEMBLY

Included with your KYTEs are two rear feet and four Pozi 2 screws. These are required to install the rear foot on each speaker (you will need a PZ2/Pozi 2 screwdriver). Simply
hand tighten two screws through each of the feet into the corresponding threaded holes on the back of the speaker (as shown in the diagram). To ensure the foot is aligned correctly, place the speaker with the foot attached on a flat surface before fully tightening to ensure the speaker will sit level in its final position.

IMPORTANT: NEVER place the speaker face down when fitting the feet to avoid damage to the drive units.
An optional metal base is available for purchase, which will offer greater compatibility with a wide range of third-party loudspeaker stands (see www.rega.co.uk for details).

CONNECTION

Ensure the colour terminals Red (+) and Black (-) are connected to the correct terminals at both loudspeaker and amplifier binding posts. We recommend using good quality loudspeaker cable such as the Rega ‘Duet’. Always use the same length speaker cable to each loudspeaker

POSITIONING

The KYTEs can be used on stands, a sturdy shelf, or flat surfaces. Imaging and bass response can be tuned by adjusting the distance of the speaker from the rear and sidewalls. As with all loudspeakers, this will be dependant on the size of the room, flooring, and furnishings therefore some simple experiments trying different distances will help optimize the performance to your surroundings. In general, more bass is produced if the cabinet is positioned closer to a structural wall.

REPLACING THE DRIVE UNITS

 In the unlikely event, a drive unit needs to be replaced it is necessary to remove the front fascia label to access the drive unit fixing screws. A new adhesive front panel label will
be supplied as standard with any replacement units. To remove the front panel label, we recommend accessing via the unit that requires replacement to prevent damage to the phenolic cabinet. We recommend that any servicing is carried out via your Rega dealer.
