4.1 Attaching Feet/Spikes

For optimal stability and vibration isolation, attach the included rubber feet or spikes to the bottom of the speaker. Rubber feet are suitable for hard floors, while spikes are recommended for carpeted surfaces to couple the speaker firmly to the subfloor.

4.2 Højttalerplacering

Proper speaker placement is crucial for achieving the best sound quality. Consider the following guidelines:

• Afstand fra vægge: Experiment with placing the speakers a short distance from the rear and side walls. This can affect bass response and soundstagdybden.
• Toe-in: Slightly angle the speakers inward towards the listening position (toe-in) to optimize imaging and soundstage focus.
