Linn AV Loudspeaker - Manual (Page 20)

Using the AV 5140 loudspeakers with a centre loudspeaker
If you are using the AV 5140 loudspeakers in an AV system, and you have
a centre loudspeaker, they will benefit from being placed further apart.
The centre loudspeaker should be slightly closer to the rear wall than the
AV 5140 loudspeakers, so that the distance from the listener to each the
loudspeaker is the same.
Positioning the AV 5140 loudspeakers near a television
The AV 5140 loudspeakers are fully screened and can therefore be placed
as close as 50mm (2") to a television without causing interference to the
television picture.
Fitting the stands
The AV 5140 loudspeakers are supplied with bases, and for stability we
recommend you fit these to the loudspeakers.
Screw each stand onto the loudspeaker using the four cap screws and
washers provided.
Adjusting the feet
The AV 5140 loudspeakers are supplied with adjustable spiked feet. To
achieve the full performance from your loudspeakers you should adjust the
spikes so that the loudspeakers are completely stable, with all feet in
contact with the floor.
The standard spikes, which have been designed for use with carpeted
floors, penetrate through the weave of the carpet without flattening the
pile.
If you have wooden or solid floors you should use the spikes in
conjunction with Linn SKEETS, to provide a firm base and protect the floor
from scratches. These are available from your Linn dealer.
To adjust the feet loosen the locking nut using the spanner provided,
move the spike by screwing or unscrewing it, and then lightly tighten the
locking nut.
