Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, place the speakers on a flat, stable surface at least 6-12 inches away from back walls to reduce bass reflection. Ensure they are toed-in slightly toward the primary listening position for better imaging. For cleaning, use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to dust the brown finish; avoid harsh chemicals or liquids that could damage the exterior or the driver materials. Always ensure your amplifier or receiver power rating is compatible with the speaker's impedance specifications before connecting your wires.
