The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electrical shock to persons.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.
WARNING: No naked flame sources – such as candles – should be placed on the product.
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
DO NOT OPEN.
WARNING: Do Not Open! Risk of Electrical Shock. Voltages in this equipment are hazardous to life. No user-serviceable parts inside. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
SPEAKER SET-UP
For optimum acoustic performance, use the spike feet. On hard floors, the spike receiver cups may be utilized. When spike use is not practical, use the threaded rubber bumper feet. A base plinth is provided with this product and should be utilized for optimal stability.
Placing them near a corner or wall provides the greatest amount of bass while • moving the speakers away from room boundaries reduces bass energy.
Asymmetrical placement of a pair of speakers from adjacent side walls can • smooth room-induced bass unevenness.
Bookshelf models may be placed on shelves or optional floor stands.• Experiment with the above guidelines to suit your taste and to compensate for •
your room’s acoustic characteristics.
Center Channel Speakers (See Figures 1 and 2.)
Place immediately above or below center of your video display.• Use the supplied self-stick rubber pads to cover the bottom of the speaker. •
(See Figure 4.)
Surround Channel Speakers (See Figures 1 and 2.)
Place approximately 2 feet above the listening position. (Typically this will be • about 5-7 feet above the floor.)
The surrounds should be placed on the walls directly adjacent to the listening • position. Another option would be on the wall behind the listening position.
The final surround speaker placement depends on your room’s characteristics.• Use the attached wall bracket to hook to an appropriately sized screw head •
screwed into a wall stud or wall anchor with a suitable weight bearing capacity. (See Figure 2.)
See your Energy dealer for optional, adjustable wall mounts if required. These • mounts utilize the threaded bushings on the rear of the cabinet.
The new Veritas surrounds have bipole and dipole settings. If your surrounds • will be placed parallel with your seating area, use the dipole setting. If the sur­rounds are placed elsewhere then us the bipole setting. (See Figure 5.)
CAUTION! Never use the attached wall bracket for mounting the
speaker to the ceiling!
CONNECTING
CAUTION! Turn your amplifier off before making any
connections.
To attach the plinth to the base of the cabinet, carefully stand the speaker on its top on a non-abrasive surface. Take care not to scratch the elegant finish or damage the drivers while handling. Align the mounting holes in the plinth with threaded inserts in the bottom of the cabinet. Attach the plinth to the cabinet with the four mounting screws provided.
Screw the spike feet (with lock nuts) fully into the threaded inserts. Place the speaker upright in desired location. Use the wrench provided to adjust the spike height so the unit is level and stable (not rocking). Next, tighten the lock nuts to secure the spike feet in their adjusted location. (See Figure 6.)
ROOM PLACEMENT
Your Veritas loudspeakers will perform well in a variety of locations, but best results will be achieved using the following guidelines:
Front Left and Right Speakers (See Figures 1 and 2.)
Place on a common wall 6 to 15 feet apart. • If used in a home theater system, position the speakers flanking your video display.• Position them equidistant from the back wall.• Position them at the same height above the floor (for non-floor standing •
models) with the high frequency drivers at seated ear height. Angle speakers toward the listener and even with or forward of any adja-•
cent obstructions.
Your loudspeakers are equipped with positive (Red) and negative (Black) connection terminals on the rear of the cabinet. These correspond to the positive and negative terminals on the appropriate channel (left, right, center, rear, etc.) of your amplifier.
Standard Connections (See Figure 3.)
Some Veritas speakers come with dual binding posts that are connected • by a metal strip. Do not remove this strip or your speakers will not function correctly. Keep this strip in place and connect your speaker wire to the top set of the binding posts. It is possible to “Bi-wire” a speaker that has two sets of binding posts. Please see your receiver’s manual for further instructions.
All speakers in your system must be connected in phase with the positive • speaker terminal connected to the positive amplifier terminal. Repeat this for the negative speaker terminal and amplifier terminals. Most speaker wire has distinguishing markings on the insulation of one of the conductors to assist in correct hook up.
Use 16 gauge (AWG), two conductor, copper wire at a minimum and larger • gauge wire for longer runs. The connection terminals on your loudspeaker will accommodate bare wire, spade terminals or banana type plugs.
Use either pair of positive and negative terminals keeping the metal coupling • straps in place.
CAUTION! With all connection types, take care that there is no
contact between the positive and negative terminals at the speaker and amplifier. Damage to your equipment may result!
Bass Management
When using your speakers in a home theater system, consult the owner’s manual of your surround electronics for proper application of bass management settings.
As a general rule, compact speakers (Bookshelf, Center Channel and Sur-• rounds) are set to the “Small,” or bass-limited setting.
Floorstanding speakers are typically set to the “Large,” or full-range setting.• Also refer to the electronics instructions for adjusting the relative volume levels •
of the speakers so they are at the same level when in the listening position.

CARE AND CLEANING
Occasional dusting or wiping of the cabinet with a damp cloth is all that is • required. Never use abrasive or solvent type cleaners or harsh detergents.
A vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment may be used to clean the • grille fabric.
Never spray polishes or cleaners on the drive units (woofers, midranges or tweeters).•

使用墙壁安装支架与规格适合的螺丝头连接,螺丝头应该拧入承重适合的墙 壁螺栓或墙壁锚栓。(请参见图 2。) 如果需要,请联系您的 Energy 经销商寻求其他可调节的墙壁安装件。这些安 装件使用位于音箱背面的螺纹套管。 全新的 Veritas 环绕声道扬声器具有双极和 偶极设置。如果环绕声道扬声器 将与您的座位平行,则使用偶极设置。如果环绕声道扬声器放置于其他位置, 则使用双极设置。(请参见图 5。)
注意!请勿使用墙壁安装支架来将扬声器安装到天花板!
连接
注意!在进行任何连接之前,请关闭放大器。
扬 声 器 音 箱 背 面 配 有 正 极(红 色 )和 负 极( 黑 色)连 接 端 子。这 些 对 应 于 放 大 器 相 应声道(左、右、中央、后等)的正负极端子。

警告:切勿打开!可能导致电击。本设备中的电压可导致生命危险。
内部无 用户 可维修的 零件。
所有维修工作都要由合格的维修人员完成。
扬声器设置 为取得最佳的声音表现,请使用脚锥。在硬木地板上,可能需要使用长钉座。若无 法使用长钉,则使用螺纹橡胶缓冲垫支脚。本产品还提供有底座,应该用其来实 现最佳的稳定性。
为了将底座安装到音箱的底部,请小心地将扬声器放在音箱的耐磨表面上。在搬 运时小心不要刮伤漆面或损坏驱动器。使用音箱底部的螺纹嵌件将安装孔与底座 对齐。使用随附的四个安装螺丝将底座安装到音箱上。
将脚锥(带锁紧螺母)完全拧入螺纹嵌件中。将扬声器竖直放置于所需的位置。使 用随附的扳手调节长钉高度,以便设备保持水平且稳固(不会摇晃)。接下来,拧紧 锁紧螺母,以便将脚锥固定于调节好的位置。(请参见图 6。)
房间放置位置 Veritas 扬声器可在多种地点发挥较 佳的性能,但是采用下列原则可实现最佳的 效果:
左前与右前扬声器(请参见图 1 和 2)。 放置于同一墙面上,间距 6-15 英尺。 如果采用家庭影院系统,则将扬声器放置于视频显示器的两侧。 保持扬声器与后面的墙壁等距。 让扬声器距离底面的高度保持一致(非落地式型号),将高频驱动器放置于耳 朵的高度。 定向扬声器应该朝向听众,与任何附近的障碍物水平或在此之前。 将扬声器放置于角落或墙壁附近将提供最大的低音,而将扬声器放置于远离 房间边界的位置将会降低低音能量。 在邻近的两面边墙旁不对称地放置一对扬声器可抑制房间产生的低音不均匀 现象。 书架型号可放置于架子上或可选的落地架上。 试验上述的原则来满足自己的需求,同时补偿房间的声音特性。
标准连接(请参见图 3。)
某些 Veritas 扬声器配有双接线柱,通过金属片连接。请不要拆除这些金属 片,否则扬声器将无法正常工作。将这个金属片保持不动,将扬声器的电线连 接至接线柱的顶部的一组。如果有两组接线柱,一个扬声器可以连接两根电 线 。请 参 阅 接 收 器 手 册 了 解 更 多 信 息 。 系统中所有扬声器的连接相位必须确保扬声器正极端子连接到放大器正极端 子。对于扬声器负极端子和放大器负极端子执行相同的步骤。大多数的扬声器 电线在线芯绝缘包皮上都有区分标记,便于您正确连线。 至少使用 16 号 (AWG) 双线芯铜线,更长的距离要使用更大的线规。扬声器 上的连接端子将能接受裸线、扁形端子或香蕉型插头。 使用任意一对正负极端子,保持连接金属片不动。
注意!对于所有连接类型,请确保扬声器和放大器上的正负极端子之间没有 任何接触。否则可能会损坏设备!
低音管理 若要在家庭影院系统中使用扬声器,请参阅环绕电子设备的用户手册以了解如何 配置低音管理设置。
一般来说,紧凑型扬声器(书架式、中央声道和环绕声道)设置为“小”或低音 限制设置。 落地式扬声器通常设置为“大”或全范围设置。 同时请参阅电子设备的说明书来了解如何调节扬声器的相对音量,以便在收 听位置能够听到相同水平的音量。
维护与清洁
需要偶尔使用湿抹布来为音箱除尘或擦拭。请勿使用研磨性或溶剂型的清洁 剂或烈性清洁剂。 可使用吸尘器装有软刷来清洁栅格蒙布。 请勿在驱动设备(低音喇叭、中音喇叭或高音喇叭)上喷洒光亮剂或清洁剂。
加拿大和美国境外的保修 若此产品售至美国和加拿大以外的国家,其保修需遵守适用的法律。若希望获得 适用保修服务,请致电购机经销商,或联系此产品的分销商。

中央声道扬声器(请参见图 1 和 2)。
紧挨着放置于视频显示器的上方或下方的中间。 将随附的自粘式橡胶 垫粘在扬声器 的底部。(请参见图 4。)
环绕声道扬声器(请参见图 1 和 2)。
置放于收听位置上方约 2 英尺处。(通常这将距离底面大约 5-7 英尺 处。) 环绕声道扬声器应该直接放置于墙上,临近收听位置。也可选择放置于墙上, 但位于收听位置的后面。 环绕声道扬声器最终的放置位置取决于房间的特点。
