Unpacking Your Loudspeakers

Please read this manual as soon as you have opened the carton.
Lift the loudspeaker carefully out of the packing. Do NOT try to lift the loudspeaker using the cloth bag.
Unpack any accessories carefully.
If there is any sign of damage or if the contents are incomplete, report this to your dealer as soon as possible.
Retain the packing for future safe transport of the product. Dispose of the packing with respect to any recycling provisions in your
area.

Positioning Stereo Loudspeakers

The distance between the speakers should be the same as between you and the speakers.

If the loudspeakers are placed too close to the walls the bass will increase but may be boomy and indistinct. If the loudspeakers are
placed further away from the walls, the inward angle ("toe in") may be increased by up to 30%. As personal taste plays a large role,
experiment with different configurations and play a wide range of programme material before finalising the position of your speakers.
The optimum listening position is in the area broadly known as the "sweet spot" . The more extreme the angle the narrower the sweet
spot is. Wharfedale loudspeakers are designed to cover a medium sonic perspective so there should be no need for extreme settings.

Standard Loudspeaker Wiring

Choose a suitable length of twin core speaker cable for each channel and prepare the ends. Unscrew each terminal a few turns.
Connect the red, positive (+) terminal of the Left loudspeaker to the corresponding red, positive (+) amplifier terminal.
Connect the black, negative (-) terminals similarly. Tighten the terminal securely. Repeat this procedure for the Right Channel. If you are
standard wiring make sure the terminal links are securely in place.
