Using the spikes

The speaker stands include spikes that you can use to isolate the speaker from the floor. Spikes are recommended when placing the stand on a thick carpet (for added stability), or for better sound when placing the stand on a hard reverberant surface (such as a concrete or wood floor). Use the supplied spike bases to avoid scratching the floor or other surface where the stand is placed.

1Attach the spikes to the nuts provided.

2Attach all four spikes to the threaded metal inserts at the base of the speaker stand.

3Choose the location for speaker placement then put the spike bases on the floor.

4Place the stand so that the spikes are resting on the spike bases on the floor.

Before placing the speaker on the speaker stand, make sure the stand is stable and resting squarely on all four spikes.

Note that these spikes are sharp metal and can cause damage to flooring. Make sure to lay down a cloth or suitable base before setting up.

The spike bases should be placed as shown below (with the depression on the top side).

Make sure to use the spike bases provided to avoid damaging the surface where you place the stand.

Attaching speakers to the stands

To avoid accident or injury, please use screws to secure the speakers to the speaker stands.
