Using the Carpet Spikes

For placing speakers on thick carpet, we recommend using the four threaded carpet spikes and lock nuts (VR2 and VR3 only) which serve three purposes — leveling (an aesthetic issue), stability (a practical issue) and rigidity (an acoustic issue). The spikes concentrate the speaker’s weight on four points, creating focused pressure that anchors the speaker cabinet to the floor and enhances rigidity. For most carpeting, leaving about 1⁄2-inch (12mm) of the carpet spike exposed is sufficient, although this may be adjusted as necessary.

For placing the speakers on hard, flat surfaces, use the four circular self-adhesive rubber pads provided instead of the carpet spikes.

Mounting the VRB to a Speaker Stand

The VRB features a 1/4"-20 threaded insert on the bottom panel, so it can be securely bolted to any accessory speaker stand that offers this feature. Bolting the speaker to the stand reduces unwanted vibration and reduces the possibility of the speaker accidentally falling off the stand.

Caring for Your Speakers

The cabinet of your VR Speaker system is finished in furniture-grade vinyl veneer. This finish should be treated like any other piece of fine furniture. To clean, simply wipe lightly with a slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive clean- ers, solvents, wax, oil or furniture polish.

Listening Levels and Power Handling

The listed power recommendations assume you will operate your system in a way that will not produce distortion. Even these rugged speakers can be damaged by a modest amplifier if it produces distortion. If you hear a harsh, gritty noise, turn the volume down. Prolonged or repeated operation of your speaker with a distorted signal from the amplifier can cause damage that is not covered by the warranty.
