Q Active 400 (Floorstanding)

The Q Active 400 speakers are designed to be floor mounted only and supplied with front and rear 
support bases which must be attached to the bottom of the speaker in order to fit the supplied spike 

feet. 

Carefully place the tower speaker upside down; using the cloth bag to protect the speaker from hard 
surfaces and screw the base parts as shown using the four supplied screws. 

After the bases have been fitted, screw in the four spike feet. If you have a wooden or stone floor, then it 
is recommended that you also fit the rubber caps over the top of the spikes to prevent floor scratching. 

Place the speakers either side of the main listening position, ideally about 2.0 – 4.0m apart. If your 
speakers are close together it is advised that they are positioned such that the front drivers are further 
apart (see image below) to give the widest soundstage possible. Please note that each speaker requires 
a mains electricity socket.
