Quick Start
To get the most from your X-Ref loudspeakers, we urge you to read the entire manual. If
you just can’t wait to hear how great your X-Ref loudspeakers sound, this section will cover
the basics you need to get started.
Find a secure location for your X-Ref loudspeakers.
Before using the X-Ref Tower models, attach the base plates with the included screws.
If you’re using them on a soft surface (like carpet), we strongly suggest using the carpet
points (also included).
If you’re using the X-Ref Center/LCR Monitors vertically (as monitors or mains), place
them on speaker stands, strong shelves, or other secure locations. Consider using
decoupling pads to reduce vibration and prevent slipping.
If you’re using your X-Ref Center/LCR Monitors as Centers, we suggest using the
(optional) center stands offered by Emotiva. The stands are attractive, include foam
pads to provide a secure non-slip base and protect against damage to the nish, and
offer the option of tilting the speaker slightly up or down.
Place the X-Ref Monitors on speaker stands or shelves, or attach them to mounting
brackets of proper capacity.
XRS Surrounds are typically placed on shelves or attached to rear or side walls (using
the included mounting plates).
Connect your X-Ref Series speakers to your power amp or receiver using good quality
speaker cables.
Find some music you really like to listen to.
Enjoy!
While you’re enjoying your X-Ref speakers, it would be a great time to read the rest of the
manual to learn more about them.
