Maintain Symmetry
Place the monitors at an equal distance from
the listening position and symmetrically relative
to the room walls. Place the listening position
on the room front-back centreline and the moni-
tors at an equal distance from this centreline.
Minimise Reflections
Acoustic reflections are created by objects
close to the monitors. Such objects can be
desks, cabinets, computer monitors etc.
Acoustic reflections can cause unwanted sound
colouration and sound image instability. These
can be minimised by placing the monitors and
the listening position clear of reflective surfaces.
Minimum Clearances
Ensure sufficient clearance for amplifier cooling
and reflex port function. The minimum clear-
ance is 3 cm (13/16 in) behind, above, and on
both sides of the monitor. The ambient temper-
ature should be less than 35 degrees Celsius
(95°F.)

Mounting Options

Safety Considerations

Servicing must only be performed by qualified
service personnel. The monitor must not be
opened.
• Do not use the monitor with an unearthed
mains cable or an unearthed mains
connection.
• Do not expose the monitor to water or
moisture. Do not place any objects filled
with liquid, such as vases, on the monitor
or near it.
• This monitor is capable of producing
sound pressure levels in excess of 85 dB,
which may cause permanent hearing
damage.
• Free flow of air behind the monitor is
necessary to maintain sufficient cooling. Do
not obstruct airflow around the monitor.
• The device is not completely disconnected
from the AC mains service unless the mains
power cord is detached from the device or
the mains outlet.
