The loudspeakers are covered with a soft faux leather material. Please take care when unpacking the speakers to
avoid scratching or indenting the material.
Before installing this product please read all of the instructions.
The amplier inside the loudspeaker have built in thermal and short circuit protection.If an amplier is driven beyond
its power output capabilities it will produce distorted sound which may damage your loudspeakers. Make sure
you do not leave your loudspeakers unattended when playing and reduce the volume at the rst sign of audible
distortion.We recommend that you keep all packing until you are completely satised with your purchase.
The mesh grilles on your
WS90t
loudspeakers have been designed to provide acoustic clarity and no signicant
sound improvement will be gained by removing them.

ENSURE SPIKES DO NOT PENETRATE CABLES
Fit the desired feet, spikes for carpets
or rubber feet where flooring is to be
protected.
If using Spikes – Insert the spikes and loosely
fit lock nuts. Once upright, ensure the
loudspeaker is stable.
Adjust spikes where necessary to ensure
loudspeaker is level, and then fully tighten
lock nuts.
Spike support cups are available to use
where Spikes are preferred but flooring is
to be protected.

Why use spikes?
Some low frequency energy is dissipated when a loudspeaker
is placed on a soft surface, i.e. carpets. This effect can be
minimised by using Spikes to help couple the loudspeaker to the
oor.
Spikes help to minimize overall vibration of the loudspeaker by
reducing the amount of sound energy between the loudspeaker
and the oor

Loudspeaker placement
Left and Right loudspeakers can be identied by looking at the amplier panel on the rear of each cabinet. Place the
loudspeakers in your preferred position but within reach of wall sockets. With the wall socket in the OFF position connect the
power lead to the loudspeaker using only the supplied power cables. Once connected, the mains switch can be turned to
the ON position.
What is the ideal position for my
WS90t
loudspeakers?
Placing each
WS90t
at least 300mm from the back wall will reduce reections and improve accuracy and detail. Each
loudspeaker should be the same distance from where you are seated. Ideally the loudspeakers and the listening position
should form an equilateral triangle. Depending on room layout, some “toeing in” may improve stereo imagery and staging
by reducing reections from side walls.
