Carefully remove the speaker from its packaging. Retain all packaging materials for future transport or storage. Inspect the speaker for any signs of damage. If damage is present, contact your dealer immediately.

3.2 Col·locació

Optimal speaker placement is crucial for sound quality. For stereo listening, position the speakers equidistant from the listening position and spaced apart to create a balanced soundstage. For home cinema, refer to your amplifier's manual for recommended 5.1 channel speaker placement guidelines. Avoid placing speakers directly against walls or in corners, as this can overemphasize bass frequencies. Experiment with toe-in (angling speakers towards the listening position) to fine-tune imaging.
