Positioning

The 1 Series are very exible with regard to positioning and are

designed to work well wherever they are located within the listening

environment. There are however some basic guidelines that should

be followed (where possible) for optimum performance:

The tweeters (high frequency drivers, N/A to subwoofer) should ideally

be at ear level when the listener is seated and for serious listening the

grilles are best removed where practical. The 107 may require

placement lower if used with a screen in typical A/V layout.

Rigid support is necessary for the speakers to deliver optimum

dynamic response and detail, the 101’s and 107 benet from either

good stands or a solid surface below them, the 103’s and 108 should

be used with their own oor spikes where possible. Extra coupling can

be achieved with standard mounting tack used to secure placement.

Room positioning: The 1 Series speakers are all“room-friendly”models

and should be able to be placed where most convenient with minimal

detriment to sound. Where possible a minimum of 6”(15cm) of space

should be allowed between the speakers and boundary walls. Stereo

models should be the same distance from each other as the listening

position.

Experiment and listen to what works best for you, trust your own ears

and judgement.
