4.0 System Assembly
This section covers the assembly required for
specific Evolution product configurations. The
operations are simple and easy to accomplish
quickly.
4.1 Supplies and tools
The tools you will need are:
- Combination #2/#3 Phillips screwdriver (pro-
vided in your Owner ’s Kit)
- NHT binding post wrench (provided)
- Wire strippers
- Speaker wire (10 to 14 gauge)
- Tape measure or ruler
CAUTION: Some of the Evolution components
are heavy. If possible, have someone available
to assist you during assembly and placement of
the tower and/or subwoofer modules.
4.2 Monitor Parts Assembly
Step 1: Terminal Plate Orientation
The M5 and M6 are delivered with the Terminal
Plate oriented for horizontal monitor placement.
For vertical monitor placement, the Terminals
should be rotated so that the speaker wire
hangs straight down the rear of the speaker.
Place the monitor on a soft surface in the
desired orientation. See section 3.0 for illustra-
tion of proper tweeter orientation. DO NOT lay
the front baffle of the Monitor down on any sur-
face, as this will damage the drivers.
Remove the four screws from the Terminal Plate
on the back of the Monitor with the supplied #2
screwdriver. Gently pull the Terminal Plate
away from the cabinet and rotate it 90 degrees
so that the Boundary Switch is at the top.
Reinstall the screws in the pilot holes as shown.
Make sure the screws are snug, but be careful
not to over tighten them.
