3. Installing and Adjusting The Feet
Stereo Audio Systems
To begin with, the speakers should be positioned
between 1.5m and 3m apart and a similar distance
away from the listening position. The speakers should
be at least 0.5m away from the back wall, and at
least 0.5m away from any side walls. It may help the
stereo image clarity if the speakers are each angled
inward towards the listening position, especially if they
are relatively far apart. The diagram above illustrates
speaker positioning for stereo audio systems.
Multi-channel Audio-visual Systems
If the speakers are to be used for the front channels in
a home theatre system they should be placed closer
together than for stereo audio because the surround
channels tend to widen the stereo image. Positioning
the speakers within approximately 0.5m of the sides of
the video screen will also help keep the sound image
in scale with the visual image. As with conventional
stereo positioning, the speakers should ideally be at
least 0.5m away from any side walls. The diagram
above illustrates speaker positioning for multi-channel
audio-visual systems.
Stray Magnetic Fields
The speaker drive units create stray magnetic elds
that extend beyond the boundaries of the cabinet. We
recommend you keep magnetically sensitive articles
(CRT television and computer screens, computer
discs, audio and video tapes, swipe cards and the
like) at least 0.5m from the speaker. Plasma, LCD and
OLED screens are not affected by magnetic elds.
With the speaker close to its nal position, the roller-
glides can be removed and the adjustable spike or
rubber feet tted. This is described in the following
paragraphs and illustrations.
Using a second person to help, gently lay the speaker
on its side as illustrated above. Ensure that the surface
it lies on will not damage its nish. Despite the fact
that it is compliantly mounted and moves a little, the
speaker can be handled by gripping its “head” unit.
Take care not to touch the drive units while handling
the speaker.
