Attaching the stand to the speaker
1. Remove the two screws and take off the rear cover plate from
the speaker. Use the hex key supplied to loosen the screws.
Note the blanking plug which fills the unused pivot hole on the
rear of the speaker.
2. Connect the cable to the speaker terminals. Observe correct
polarity. Speaker cable is usually colour-coded (red or white for
positive) or provided with an identifying stripe or rib on the
positive conductor. Connect the positive conductor to the red
speaker terminal.
3. Attach the speaker to the stand and tighten the two fixing
screws. Use the hex key supplied.

INSTALLING THE OREUS SUBWOOFER
The rear panel metal plate acts as a heatsink for the subwoofer’s
internal amplifier. There should be at least 10 cm of free space around
the heatsink for air circulation. Do not place pillows or other objects
against it.
We recommend placing the subwoofer at least 2 to 3 feet away from a
television or a computer’s disc-drive system to prevent smearing the
colors of the TV picture or erasing of the magnetic drive.
Placement will depend upon your room and the amount and quality
of bass required (for example, whether or not your room permits
placement of the subwoofer near one of the front satellites).
Careful experimentation will enable you to determine the best position
for the subwoofer. See suggestions on next page.
CAUTION:
The subwoofer's rubber feet can under certain conditions smudge
or discolor light colored and delicate surfaces. Please place a
protective mat or coaster under the rubber feet to prevent marking
or discoloration.
SUBWOOFER PLACEMENT
This view shows the subwoofer positioned behind the right channel
satellite speaker to re-create the actual location of bass instruments
in an orchestra.
Here are some useful hints:
- If the bass response seems inadequate, move the subwoofer
closer to a wall or corner.
- If the bass is too heavy, try moving the subwoofer futher from the wall.
It will take time and patience to find the most pleasing acoustic
location for your subwoofer. Testing for sonic balance and blending
should always be made for your normal listening position, using a
wide range of source material. As a startingpoint, initially place the
subwoofer behind your right channel satellite speaker, about 3 or
4 inches from the wall. We suggest trying this location first
because in an orchestra, the bass instruments are usually located
in the back and to the right.
2. Feed your speaker cable through the stand column. The cable
can exit through the hole at the bottom rear of the stand column
or it can exit through the hole in the stand base.
5. Your speaker should now look like this.
