Installing your speaker

Please observe the following points when installing speakers:

• These speakers are bookshelf-type speakers which will

give their best performance when placed on a solid,
level surface off the floor. Placing the speakers directly
on the floor will result in boomy, undefined sound.
Ideally, the tweeters should be at about ear level when
seated in your listening position. We recommend using
the CP-2EX speaker stand for optimal sound and stability.

If you choose to use the CP-2EX speaker stand, make sure
you secure it with the screws provided.

• Sounds played through speaker systems are easily

affected in subtle ways by the conditions in the listening
space.

• For good sound, the speaker should be about 20 cm

away from the back wall and at least 50 cm away from
the side wall. If the room has a lot of reverberation, we
recommend hanging heavy fabric on the walls, and/or
putting a carpet on the floor to damp the sound. For best
results, cover walls completely.
