Summary of Contents for EPOS Encore 50
- Page 1 Floor standing loudspeaker...
- Page 2 It is advisable to rest the plinth on top of the speaker. SPIKES Epos has designed some unique spiked feet for mounting this large loudspeaker that allow a wide range of adjustment in height and angle. Depending on floor surface (carpet, tiles, wood) the height may be set to suit the listener and angled up or down, depending on the chosen listening position.

Page 3: Speaker Location
The plinth should be sitting on the speaker with the Epos logo facing the right way up. Take the metal feet from the packaging one by one and disassemble them. Place the flat washer into the recess in the top and pass each of the 4mm diameter bolts through the 4 holes so they exit under the plinth. - Page 4 There is only one Skateboard provided for a pair of speakers. If you require a second Skateboard please check with your dealer or Epos Ltd. The Skateboard is made from very strong plywood and has four wheels to allow it to travel smoothly over carpet, tiles or wooden floors, without damaging either the floor covering or the speaker.
- Page 5 Side bar POSITIONING All Epos loudspeakers are designed to be positioned away from the wall. Space should be left behind the loudspeakers to allow proper operation of rear firing reflex ports and to ensure establishment of good stereo image depth. Some experimentation may be necessary to establish the ideal position within your listening room.
- Page 6 Ensure that your amplifier is switched off before you make, or break, any connections, because damage may occur to your amplifier if shorted. Your Epos loudspeakers are equipped with high quality insulated binding posts, with excellent electrical contact and current specification. The posts are connected to the individual drivers as denoted on the rear panel label.

Once again, if you are in doubt consult your Epos dealer. Better plugs can be used but try to avoid ones that have a large bare metal finish as they can accidentally short-out the amplifier and must really be touch proof in operation. - Page 9 This is unlikely, but anything is possible. The Encore 50 speakers are quite sensitive by normal standards, but do require an amplifier that can source high current. That is why using two or three amplifiers, instead of one puts less strain on each amplifier and usually results in a better sound.
- Page 10 Be careful to store them in a safe place when not used, as they are fragile. ACTIVE OPERATION The Encore 50 loudspeaker is the first in a line of speakers from EPOS that can support being used in either active or passive mode. Active mode means that the crossover filter that separates the frequencies for each drive unit is located outside the loudspeaker, in front of the amplifier.
