How to assemble speaker stands

• Allen key (supplied)
• Spirit level
• Funnel for filling columns, if used

Before you start, lay everything out on a soft surface (the flattened box works) and check it against the parts list in your manual.

• Base plates
• Columns
• Top plates
• Spikes or rubber feet
• Blu-tack or isolation pads

1. 1

   Step 1: Screw the spikes or rubber feet into the base plates; use rubber feet or spike shoes on wooden floors.

2. 2

   Step 2: Bolt each column to its base plate and tighten evenly.

3. 3

   Step 3: If the columns are hollow and fillable, pour in dry sand or the supplied filler through a funnel to the level the manual gives, then close them.

4. 4

   Step 4: Bolt on the top plates and route the speaker cable through the column channel if there is one.

5. 5

   Step 5: Stand the stands in place and adjust the spikes or feet until each top plate is level.

6. 6

   Step 6: Put the isolation pads or tack on the top plates, place the speakers and press them down so they cannot slide off.

7. 7

   Step 7: Connect the speaker cables with the correct polarity (red to red, black to black).

• Using damp sand, which can rust the columns.
• Spikes on bare wooden floors without shoes.
• Leaving speakers loose on the plate where a knock can push them off.
