[. . . ] (figures 4 & 5) All connections should be made with the equipment switched off. There are 2 pairs of terminals at the back of the speaker which permit bi-wiring if desired. On delivery, the separate pairs are connected together with high-quality links for use with a single 2-core cable. [. . . ] Space behind the speakers also helps to create an impression of depth. Conversely, moving the speakers closer to the walls will increase the level of bass. If you want to reduce the bass level without moving the speakers further from the wall, fit the foam bungs in the port tubes (figure 6). If the bass is uneven with frequency it is usually due to the excitation of resonance modes in the room. Even small changes in the position of the speakers or the listeners can have a profound effect on how these resonances affect the sound. Try mounting the speakers along a different wall. Even moving large pieces of furniture can have an effect. If the central image is poor, try moving the speakers closer together or toeing them in so they point at or just in front of the listeners. If the sound is too harsh, increase the amount of soft furnishing in the room (for example use heavier curtains), or reduce it if the sound is dull and lifeless. Test for flutter echoes by clapping your hands and listening for rapid repetitions. Reduce them by the use of irregular shaped surfaces such as bookshelves and large pieces of furniture. ensure the speakers stand firmly on the floor. Whenever possible fit the spike feet supplied after you have optimised the positioning. They are designed to pierce through carpeting to the floor surface. [. . . ] Spray onto the cleaning cloth, not directly onto the cabinet. The grille fabric may be cleaned with a normal clothes brush whilst the grille is detached from the cabinet. Avoid touching the drive unit diaphragms, especially the tweeter, as damage may result. [. . . ]
