Positioning
The Radius 180 can be positioned vertically (portrait) or horizontally (landscape).
The Radius 180 can be positioned on a shelf by fitting the rubber feet provided to
the underside of the speaker to stop vibrations. Alternatively, you can choose to fix
the Radius 180 to a wall by using the high-quality metal alloy wall bracket provided,
or by purchasing the specially designed bespoke Radius Floor Stand from you
local authorised Monitor Audio dealer. To fix your speaker to the wall, please refer
to the Wall Bracket Fixing Instructions in the wall bracket carton. When using the
wall bracket, we do not recommend connecting the loudspeaker using 4mm plugs
into the ends of the terminals. The connection can be made by unscrewing the
terminal cap and using the through hole. The terminal cap can be retightened to
provide a secure connection.
Configuration
The Radius 180 is extremely versatile and can be used in a number of system
configurations. It is fully magnetically shielded and can be positioned as close to a
TV as you wish. On its own it can be used in a two-channel stereo system as part
of a multi-channel audio/ Home Theatre system. The Radius 360 or 720
subwoofers can be used with the Radius 180 to provide deep, powerful bass.
Please refer to the section; System wiring configurations on page 14.
Grille Fitment
To help the Radius 180 fit into any life-style environment we include a choice of
silver and black grilles (silver and white with white Radius 180) as standard. You
will find the spare grilles enclosed within the polystyrene packaging end caps.
If you wish to change the grille colour, you can do this by carefully removing the
grille using your fingers to gradually pull the existing grille off the cabinet. To fit a
grille, ensure the badge is correctly orientated and gently press the grille into place.
