How to install

Select a desired installation setup from the following.

When installing directly on the floor

Use the furnished spikes when installing the speaker directly on a 

floor surface.

Installation

1

Twist the spikes into the threads of the three threaded 

metal inserts (M6) embedded in the bottom of the speaker, 

and screw down securely.

2

Set the cork pads in the positions where the points of the 

three spikes will strike when the speaker is set down.

3

Set the speaker on top of the cork pads.

• As this unit weighs some 28 kg, it is very dangerous to try and 

set the spike nut while tilting the speaker. Be sure to place the 

unit on a soft area (such as a blanket) so that it does not 

damage the floor, and carry out the installation with at least 

two people.

Using the furnished speaker base

When using the furnished speaker base, the use of the furnished 

spikes is not required.

Installation

1

Affix the furnished non-skid pads (small) to the four 

locations on the bottom of the base.

2

Affix the furnished non-skid pads (large) to the two 

places on the top surface of the speaker base.

3

Place the speaker on top of the base.

Use of the furnished speaker base allows fine adjustment of 

the speaker angle.

• When using the furnished speaker base, do not fix the speaker 

in position with screws. The speaker may fall and cause injury.

If you do not use the cork pads when placing the 

speakers, the spikes may cause damage to the floor. If 

you plan on using the spikes we highly recommend to 

use the cork pads.
