Loudspeaker Installation
Connect the supplied link cables (from the accessories box) to the terminals of the
loudspeaker.
Choose a suitable length of twin core speaker cable for each channel and prepare the
ends. Unscrew each terminal a few turns. Connect the red positive (+) terminal of the Left
loudspeaker to the corresponding red positive (+) amplifier terminal. Connect the black
negative (-) terminals similarly. Tighten the terminal securely.
Repeat this procedure for the Right Channel. If you are standard wiring make sure the
terminal links are securely in place.
SPEAKER
Unscrew each terminal a few turns. Connect the cables between the amplifier and the
loudspeakers as indicated above and re-tighten all the terminals securely.
SPEAKER
If you are sitting within 2m of the speakers, the distance between the speakers should be
the same as between you and the speakers.
Otherwise site the speakers between 2 to 4 metres apart, clear of rear walls and room
corners.
If the loudspeakers are placed too close to the walls the bass will increase but may be
boomy and indistinct. If the loudspeakers are placed further away from the walls, the
inward angle ("toe in") may be increased by up to 30%. As personal taste and room
acoustics play a large role, experiment with different configurations and play a wide range
of programme material before finalising the position of your speakers.
The optimum listening position is in an area between the speakers broadly known as the
"sweet spot". The more extreme the angle of toe-in the narrower the sweet spot.
Wharfedale loudspeakers are designed to cover a wide sonic perspective so there should
be no need for extreme settings. A mild angle inwards will cover a wide range of seating
positions.
The grilles are provided to protect the loudspeaker drive units from accidental damage.
For critical listening, please remove the grilles.
