If any of these items is missing, please contact your dealer. We
suggest that you retain the packaging carefully, as it provides
maximum protection in transit.
Getting Going
IMPORTANT: Before connecting to the AC supply, check that the
unit has been manufactured to the correct supply voltage for your
territory.
IMPORTANT: Do not make any alterations to the connections of
your system with the M2500 AC power switched on.
We suggest you follow the full instructions in the Installing your
M2500 section. If, however, you want to get going fast:
Use the audio cable supplied to connect the L+ unbalanced
input of the speaker to an appropriate preamplifier or surround
sound decoder.
Switch on the power at the source at a low volume level.
Connect the M2500 to AC power with the cord provided.
Switch on the M2500 with the switch located next to the AC
power inlet. A green light should appear at the front of the unit
and you should be able to play music.
If you cannot hear any sound, refer to Help!
Installing your M2500
This section explains how to get the best from your M2500
installation. If your system includes a Meridian 565 Digital
Surround Processor, you will find more information on correct
installation in its User Guide.
Siting
The position of the subwoofer in your room is just as important as
that of any other loudspeaker to the final sound. Whilst the ear
finds it hard to localise very low frequency sound, you may not get
the best from your system if you site your subwoofers badly.
You will probably want to place your subwoofer where it is not too
obtrusive, but if possible follow these guidelines.
The closer the subwoofer is to the speakers it handles the
bass for, the more impressive the bass will be.
