Dear MAGNAT Customer,

Congratulations on your ne new loudspeakers and thank you very much for choosing MAGNAT! You

have made an excellent choice. The high-quality speakers produced by MAGNAT are renowned all over

the world.

Please study the instructions and information below carefully before using your new loudspeakers.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT CONNECTING YOUR MAGNAT QUANTUM LOUDSPEAKERS

Please always use a good quality loudspeaker connection cable from an audio dealer. To prevent

impairment of sound quality, we recommend cables with cross-sections of at least 2.5 mm² for lengths

up to 3 m and at least 4 mm² for lengths above 3 m.

Always turn off the amplier or receiver before connecting or disconnecting loudspeaker cables. Place

the loudspeakers in their planned positions and cut the cables to the right length. The cables for both

channels should always be exactly the same length.

Strip 10 – 15 mm of insulation from the ends of the cables. Twist the ends – this is much better than tinning

them with solder – insert them in the terminals and tighten the terminal screws rmly. (Fig. 1)

For good sound it is imperative that the cables must be connected in such a way that the speakers are

“in phase”. This means that the black negative terminals on the speakers (-) must be connected to the

negative (-) terminals on the amplier, the red positive (+) speaker terminals to the positive (+) amplier

terminals. To make this easier one wire of most speaker cables is marked with a coloured strip or a ridge

in the insulation.

Before switching on the system double-check all your connections and make sure that the terminal screws

are tight and that there are no short circuits caused by stray wire laments – this could cause serious

damage to your amplier!

THE MAGNAT QUANTUM LOUDSPEAKERS IN STEREO MODE

In the ideal conguration the speakers and the listening position should form an equilateral triangle. When

the left and right speakers are the same distance from the listening position their sound arrives at the

same time, resulting in a harmonious, natural music reproduction. (Fig. 2)

There should be a clear line of sight between the loudspeakers and the listening position. Any sound-

absorbing or reecting obstacles in the path will distort the sound. When you install the loudspeakers the

following distances should be maintained:

Quantum oorstanders: at least 20 cm away from the rear wall and at least 30 cm from the side walls.

This will prevent excessive emphasis of the bass range.

Quantum bookshelf speakers: shelf loudspeakers should also be as free-standing as possible, the

distance to the sides and rear to walls and items should be at least 10 cm, the tweeters should be located

at ear height.

Spikes (Quantum oorstanders): you should use the supplied spikes when setting the speakers up.

This isolates them from the supporting surface, preventing unpleasant resonance effects. You can

choose between metal and hard rubber spikes for the standing speakers. The spikes are screwed into

the threaded bushes on the bottom of the speaker.

MAGNAT QUANTUM LOUDSPEAKERS AS A FRONT OR REAR LOUDSPEAKER

The front loudspeakers are positioned at ear height on the left and right as equidistant from the television

as possible. The rear loudspeakers are placed at ear height or a little above on the left and right besides

or better behind the listening position. (Fig. 3)
