SETTING UP THE DSP

LOUDSPEAKERS

¥When all four feet have been fitted, carefully set the DSP loudspeakers upright in their playing positions and remove the rest of the packaging.

To fit the rubber bumpons (DSP5000C and DSP5500HC only)

¥Attach four bumpons to the underside of each speaker, using the self- adhesive pads.

To install the head units (DSP6000 or DSP6000C only)

¥Locate the three pillars and screw them into the three holes in the top of each base unit.

¥Fit the glass plate over the pillars on the top of each base unit.

¥Fit a plastic spacer over each pillar.

¥Place the head unit on top of each base unit.

On the DSP6000 the gold stripes on the head and base units should line up.

The speakers have the correct orientation if the sloping sides on the heads are to the outside (gold strip inside).

¥Connect the end of each head connection lead marked with a red band to the socket in the back of the head unit.

¥Connect the other end of each lead to the socket on the back of the base unit.

To dismantle the loudspeakers (DSP6000 or DSP6000C only)

When dismantling the speakers always switch off and disconnect the power first, then disconnect the head unit from the base unit.

Note: Do not disconnect the head lead while the unit is connected to the AC supply and switched on.

It is advisable to remove the head units when moving the speakers. This is achieved by disconnecting the head lead from the base unit and lifting off the head. Take care while the head is not in position as this exposes its mounting spikes. While not in place the head should be stored safely but care should also be taken of the surface they are placed upon as it may be damaged by the cups.
