Vivid Audio V1w - Manual (Page 3)

INTRODUCTION
Few owners of new Hi Fi
equipment read the instruction
manual.
Vivid Audio has decided not to
provide a formal instruction manual
or user guide on this product.
Instead, we have designed a
concise informative piece, which
should hold your interest whilst
browsing through it. While doing
so, you will learn about the do’s
and don’ts of this fine piece of
equipment.
We at Vivid Audio are enthusiasts.
We enjoy what we do - and are
good at it. Although Vivid Audio is
but a few years old, we have
revolutionised perceptions on the
performance of a good
loudspeaker. We believe in sound
engineering design and have a
skilled crew of engineers and
design professionals on board
looking after all aspects of our
products.
UNPACKING
Lay the sealed product on its back
as indicated by the arrows on the
side of the box.
Use a power driver or Phillips
cross-head screwdriver to remove
the screws securing the top
wooden cover of the crate. Remove
the cover and place safely aside.
Remove the accessories from the
crate before proceeding.
Remove the loudspeakers from the
crate by lifting them from the lower
section of the crate. CAREFULLY
remove the protective materials,
paying special attention not to
damage the drivers in the process
(see warning). Reassemble the packaging and
save for future use.
Stand mounting (V1p only)
The loudspeaker will benefit
enormously from the use of
approximately 400mm high sturdy
loudspeaker stands. It is
recommended to spike to
loudspeaker stands to the floor and
to compliantly bond the
loudspeaker base to the top of the
stand by using the re-usable
flexible adhesive provided.
Wall mounting (V1w only)
In the case of the wall mount
version, a wall mount kit is provided
and two variants are available,
catering for both dry walling and
brick and mortar type walling.
For dry walling the circular securing
plate is provided with two mounting
holes for the two 8mm coach
screws (provided). Once the plate
is firmly secured into a suitable
sturdy stud, the mounting stalk can
be secured in position and nipped
up with a 13mm spanner (not
provided). The loudspeaker is then
fitted over the cut-out knuckle,
positioned and tightened up by
hand.
PLEASE ENSURE THAT THE
COACH SCREWS ARE FIRMLY
LOCATED INTO WOODEN STUD
AND DO NOT MOUNT THE
LOUDSPEAKER UNTIL THE
SECURITY OF THIS MOUNTING
HAS BEEN APPROVED.
For the masonry/brick mounting,
the plate and coach screws are not
used but the M8 Rawl type bolt is
utilised. By using a suitable 14mm
drill bit, bore the hole to take the
Rawl bolt.
