THE VC 2 SPEAKER SET
The VC 2 set includes two front speakers as well as a subwoofer. These speakers have
been adapted to perfectly match the VC 2 and we recommend to use these speakers
together with the VC 2 CD receiver only.
POSITIONING OF THE FRONT SPEAKERS
The front loudspeakers are positioned at ear height on the left and right as equidistant from
the television as possible. There should be a clear line of sight between the loudspeakers
and the listening position. Any sound-absorbing or reflecting obstacles in the path will distort
the sound.
The speakers can be placed on a shelf or a sideboard. Please fix the supplied self-adhesive
rubber pucks on the bottom side of the speakers (4 pieces per speaker).
The front speakers are provided with a bracket for wall mounting at the rear. Insert a
suitable screw, which can be used to mount the speaker, into a load-bearing wall. We
recommend to fix the supplied rubber pucks on the rear side of the speakers to grant a
certain distance between the box and the wall.
POSITIONING OF THE SUBWOOFER
The frequency range reproduced by the subwoofer cannot be pinpointed by the human
ear. That's why positioning generally doesn't present any problems. However, it is
preferable to place the speaker close to the front loudspeaker in front of the listening
position. You should also make sure that the distance from the sides and from the rear to
items and walls is at least 25 centimetres as otherwise bass reproduction may be impaired.
VARIOUS CONNECTION POSSIBILITIES
Only connect the mains cable when all connections have been made.
When making the connections, observe the manuals of the other
components
With cables, heed the quality. The HDMI cable in particular should
absolutely be HDMI-certified.

FRONT SPEAKERS AND SUBWOOFER
The VC 2 set comes with prefabricated speaker cables for the two front speakers (2x3m)
and the subwoofer (1x5m). If possible, use these cables when connecting the speakers.
If required, you can shorten and strip the cables yourself. Please note that the cables for
the front speakers should be the same length. If you need longer cables, do not extend the
cables supplied, but purchase new, equivalent cables in the desired length from a
specialised store.
Loosen the terminal screws of the speakers one after the other and insert the stripped
ends into the designated holes. Then re-tighten the terminal screws. Please ensure that
any protruding wires do not cause a short circuit. Then connect the other end of the cable
to the connecting terminals on the VC 2 unit in the same way. Make sure you pay attention
to the correct polarity.
ANTENNAS
Connect the FM indoor antenna to the FM antenna socket. If you have one, use the house
antenna system. This generally offers better reception. For this, use a commercial IEC
antenna cable.
To use the MW receiver, connect the included frame antenna to the AM antenna input.
Direct the antenna so that the best possible reception is guaranteed.
AUXILIARY AUDIO DEVICES
If the devices have a digital output, you should use it and connect it to one of the digital
inputs of the VC 2, either with a coax cable (75 ohms) or with an optical cable.
You can connect devices with analog output via a RCA line with the Aux outputs of the
VC 2.

You can adjust the tone and balance for audio
playback under EQ mode. Four presets can be
selected here: Linear, Film, Music, Spoken. You
can adjust your own settings under the "Manual"
menu.
Under Speaker Position you can implement a
frequency response correction based on the
location of the satellite speakers. If the speakers
are set up on a shelf and the distance to the wall
is at least
15cm, the "Shelf" setting is
recommended. If the speakers are mounted
directly on a wall, please select the "Wall
mounting" option.
You can adjust the volume of the subwoofer to
match the acoustic properties of the room under
Subwoofer Gain
. The closer the subwoofer is
positioned to a wall, the greater the bass
response; therefore it may need to be reduced
(negative values). If the subwoofer is set up
relatively freely in the room, an amplification is
often necessary (positive values). You should test
the settings by conducting various listening tests
with different films and pieces of music. When
doing this the EQ mode should be set to Linear.
You can choose between PCM (two-channel PCM
data format) and RAW (multi-channel data format)
under Digital Output.
