PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING YOUR NEW SPENDOR LOUDSPEAKERS The Spendor SR5 is designed to perform optimally when it is mounted on a wall. It must be fixed securely to a wall or ceiling using the supplied wall bracket.
1 POSITIONING THE LOUDSPEAKERS The SR5 frequency response is extremely well maintained off-axis. This creates a wide deep precise sound field which allows great flexibility when planning the layout of your room, seating, loudspeakers, and associated equipment (e.g. TV or video screen). Use the following guidelines to determine the optimum positions for your loudspeakers.

The wall bracket allows you to adjust the angle of the cabinet to fine-tune the sound field which is especially useful when the SR5 is used as a surround or rear channel loudspeaker or if it is mounted on a ceiling. See figure 4. Figure 4 Figure 5 Figure 6...

2 BRACKET AND CABINET INSTALLATION Check that all loudspeaker cables have been prepared and installed. See section 3 Cables and Connections. The cabinet is secured to the bracket with 2 x M6 hex-drive socket cap machine screws, 2 x spring washers and 2 x stainless steel bushes.
3 CABLES AND CONNECTIONS Loudspeaker cables can have a noticeable effect on sound quality. Choose good quality low resistance cables with high purity metal conductors and low-loss dielectric (insulation). Ask your dealer for advice on cables to suit your system and budget. Set amplifier(s) to minimum volume and switch off the power.
6 MAINTENANCE Spendor’s real wood veneers and solid timber elements should be treated like high quality furniture. Routine dusting with a soft cloth is recommended. Do not apply any aerosol spray directly as this could damage the drive units or grille fabric.
7 QUERIES AND SERVICE If you require advice or service for your audio system please contact your Spendor dealer. We recommend that you retain all the packaging for your loudspeakers in case you need to transport them safely in the future.
