Caution:

•Allow for secure placement of the speaker; the cabinet is very tall and tends to fall down under unstable conditions. Do not place it on an unstable location such as shaky or sloping table, platform or thick carpet. Otherwise it could cause injury when dropping or falling.

•You can secure the cabinet to the wall, etc. by using a durable cord or chain along with cup hooks: Find a hole on the either side of backside the cabinet, and screw into each hole the cup hook of about 4mm in diameter and 15mm long, and then secure the cabinet to the wall, etc. with the cord or chain.

•Exercise due care to install and secure the cabinet; the sustainability of the screws may vary depending on the quality and/or location of the wall where they are tightened. You may want to consult with a professional installer.

Placement

The sound quality a speaker system reproduces varies greatly depending on the construction and area of the room where it is installed, as well as the location and size of the furniture. For better-quality sound, observe the following precautions.

•Avoid placing the speaker system on an elevated object such as on concrete blocks. Instead, place it on a rigid floor surface with minimal vibration. Also note that high-quality bass cannot be obtained if the speaker system is unstably positioned. Generally speaking, placing the speaker system on several small-diameter supports results in better bass than placing it directly on the installation surface. Moreover, if you feel the bass reproduced by the system is too weak, move the speaker system closer to the wall behind it. You can thus control the strength of the reproduced bass by the position of the speakers.

•In many rooms, the furniture and wall affect the reproduced sound quality. For stereo sound reproduction, placing the Right and Left speakers in the same condition produces the best results. If they are placed in extremely different conditions, the Right- and Left-channel balance will be adversely affected.

•The ideal placement of the speaker system is as follows: Imagine an equilateral triangle and position the Right and Left speakers on both ends of the base. The ideal listening position is at or slightly to the rear of the triangle apex.

•Glazed doors or surrounding walls in front of the speaker system may cause the resonance of specific frequency ranges due to reflected sound. To eliminate this resonance, place some sound-absorbing material such as a thick curtain in front of the doors or walls.

Attaching and detaching the speaker grilles

This speaker system uses detachable grilles. Use the following method to attach or detach the grilles.

1.While holding the bottom edge of the speaker grille with your both hands, pull it gently toward you to remove the bottom of the grille.

2.In the same way, gently pull the upper edge of the speaker grille toward you to remove it from the main unit.
