Unpacking We suggest you retain the packing for future use. Check in the carton for: • wall plate • 2x M6 screws • mounting template • rear support leg (FPM2 only) • 2x clear self-adhesive rubber pads (FPM2 only) Positioning FPM speakers are balanced for their backs being placed against a wall. However, we recommend you keep them at least 0.5m (20 in) from a side wall, otherwise the bass may be too heavy. If you intend to attach the speakers to a wall, first ascertain the optimum position before permanently fixing them in place. Unless using the speakers for home theatre centre channel, we recommend you mount them in vertical orientation. The spring- loaded logo badge on the grille may be rotated after pulling it slightly away from the cloth. 2-channel audio As an initial guide (figure 1): • Position the speakers and the centre of the listening area approximately at the corners of an equilateral triangle. • Keep the speakers at least 1.5m apart to maintain left-right separation. If the central image is poor, try moving the speakers closer together or, if they are not fixed to the wall using the supplied wall plate, toeing them in so they point at or just in front of the listeners (figure 2). Multi-channel audio/video Stray magnetic fields The speaker drive units create stray magnetic fields that extend beyond the boundaries of the cabinet. We recommend you keep magnetically sensitive articles (CRT television and computer screens, computer discs, audio and video tapes, swipe cards and the like) at least 0.5m (20 in) from the speaker. Plasma and LCD screens are not affected by these stray magnetic fields. Front (figure 3) left and right The angle between the speakers should normally be less than for 2-channel audio – nearer 40. than 60.. If using a screen, it may be desirable to place the speakers closer to the screen for aesthetic reasons, but be aware that the apparent size of the acoustic image is related to the left and right speaker spacing and ideally you should try to balance this with the picture. When used with a screen, the mounting height of the speakers should be matched to the screen. In an audio-only installation, set the height so the tweeters at the centre of the speaker are approximately at ear level. Centre channel When used with a screen, orient the speaker horizontally and place it close to the top or bottom of the screen, whichever is nearest ear level. In an audio-only installation, orient the speaker vertically and in line with the left and right front speakers. Surround Surround speakers are normally placed around 60cm (2 ft) above ear level. It is not always necessary or desirable to point surround speakers directly at the listening area. Doing so can often attract undue attention to them, especially when your head is turned from looking directly to the front, so experiment before investing in special brackets. 5.1 systems (figure 4) Place the speakers approximately 120. round from front centre. This will determine whether they are placed on the side or rear wall. 6.1 systems with one rear speaker (figure 5) Place the side speakers in line with the centre of the listening area and one speaker centrally on the rear wall. 7.1 systems and 6.1 systems with two rear speakers (figure 6) Place the side speakers in line with the centre of the listening area. Place two speakers along the rear wall to make an angle of approximately 40. to the centre of the listening area. Connections (figure 7) All connections should be made with the equipment switched off. Ensure the positive terminal on the speaker (marked +) is connected to the positive output terminal of the amplifier and negative (marked –) to negative. Always screw the terminal caps down tightly to optimise the connection and prevent rattles. Ask your dealer for advice when choosing cable. Keep the total impedance below the maximum recommended in the specification and use a low inductance cable to avoid attenuation of the highest frequencies. Fine tuning 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. Mounting the speaker To the wall Use the wall plate supplied if you do not need to angle the speaker. (figure 8) At each end of the terminal tray at the back of the speaker is a dovetail feature that slides into the wall plate. Use the template provided to mark the position of the fixing screws for the wall plate. The overall height and width of the template correspond to the size of the speaker and both the vertical and horizontal centre lines are marked. This allows you to align the speakers with the television screen and any other objects. Pierce through the screw position marks in the template to leave an indent in the wall. Hold the wall pla...
