Positioning

The KOMPONENT 120 loudspeaker can be placed anywhere you find convenient, but please consider the following points:

●For best results, position your KOMPONENT 120 loudspeaker as close as possible to either your left front or right front loudspeaker. It can be floor-mounted, shelf-mounted or (using the bracket supplied) wall- mounted.

●Experimenting with the position may be necessary in order to match the sound of the KOMPONENT 120 loudspeaker with other loudspeakers in your system and the acoustics of the room.

Whichever mounting method you employ, ensure that the KOMPONENT 120 is held or positioned rigidly, in order to ensure that the movement of the drive units is converted to sound energy, rather than cabinet movement (in the form of vibration, wobble etc.).

Replacing the fuse in the KOMPONENT 120 speaker

Should the mains fuse blow, replace it only with an equivalent part (see table below). The fuse holder is located just below the mains inlet socket. To replace the fuse, disconnect the product from the mains supply, remove the fuse using a flat blade screwdriver, insert a new fuse. If the fuse blows a second time there is a fault in the product; contact your local retailer.
