Owner's manual
Introduction
Thank you for choosing B&W. Please read this manual

Environmental Information
B&W products are designed to comply with
international directives on the Restriction of Hazardous
Substances (RoHS) in electrical and electronic
equipment and the disposal of Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment (WEEE). The crossed wheelie bin
symbol indicates compliance and that the products
must be appropriately recycled or processed in
accordance with these directives.
Carton Contents
Check in the carton for:
2 Foam plugs.
8 Self-adhesive rubber pads.
Speaker Installation
The speakers are best used mounted on rigid floor-
stands that locate the tweeters approximately at ear
level when seated. Shelf or wall bracket mounting is
an option but it provides less opportunity for
optimising the sound through adjustment of speaker
position.
The specific stand or wall mount used will affect the
sound quality of the speakers. The B&W FS-700/CM
stand is recommended.
If the speakers are to be placed on a shelf or furniture
unit, the adhesive pads supplied may be attached to
the underside of the cabinet.
Speaker Positioning
Adjustment of speaker position following initial
installation will probably further improve the sound
quality and is usually worthwhile.
In either stereo or home theatre installations try to
ensure that the immediate surroundings of each
speaker are similar in acoustic character. For example,
if one speaker is adjacent to bare walls while the other
is adjacent to soft furnishings and curtains, both the
overall sound quality and the stereo image are likely to
be compromised.
