Floor standing Evolution² speakers are sup-
plied with a set of floor spikes. Invert the
loudspeaker and place the top on a soft
surface. Screw the spikes into the bushes
fitted in the base of the cabinet. Carefully
return the loudspeaker to its normal posi-
tion. Adjust the height by screwing in or
out one or more of the spikes until the
loudspeaker is stable. For wood or soft
floors spike seats and self-adhesive pads
are provided.
WARNING: Floor standing speakers are
heavy - the spikes can penetrate softer
floors materials and damage wood and
stone floors over extended periods.

Choosing and Preparing Cables
Specialist audio cable usually offers better performance
than general purpose 'bell' or 'zip' wire.
Choose a cable of suitable diameter – cable that is too
thin will limit the dynamics of the sound and may impair
the bass response. Audio cable is polarised, with two
cores of different colours, or often a raised rib of
coloured tracer in the case of twin cable.
Split the twin cores to a depth of about 40mm. Carefully
strip the insulation from each end, leaving about 10mm
of bare wire. If the cable is stranded, lightly twist to
gather any loose strands.

Crossover Networks
Evo² front and centre loudspeakers use a specially
designed bi-wireable crossover panel with four terminal
binding posts. Please follow the drawing carefully to see
the correct orientation of the loudspeaker terminals. The
upper terminals connect to the treble unit and the lower
pair to the bass units. As supplied, the treble terminal
pair is connected to the bass terminal pair via removable
metal straps. These should be left in place for standard
single cable installations.
The Evo²-DFS speaker uses a twin terminal panel.
Connecting Loudspeaker Terminals
Unscrew the terminal. Thread the bared end of each
cable through the hole in the bottom of the terminal
post. Ensure that there are no loose strands which may
touch adjacent terminals. Retighten the terminal secure-
ly.
NOTE: When connecting loudspeakers, the cables to left
and right channels should be of equal length, regardless
of the distance of the speakers from the amplifier. In
Home Cinema systems, this applies to front and rear
channels.
