Preparing Your Loudspeakers
The Mission LX-4 MKII, LX-5 MKII and LX-6 MKII floorstanding models require fitting with the included spikes before
use. Use the screw provided to secure the plinths to the base of the speakers.
Make sure that the screws are fully tightened. After unpacking, the other loudspeakers need no further preparation.
Please remove the foam bungs from the bass port to the rear of the speaker. All LX MKII loudspeakers (except the
LX-C1 MKII and C2 MKII) are reflex enclosures. The foam bungs are not generally required but they may be used to alter
the bass parameters and damp resonances, especially when operating the loudspeakers next to walls etc.
Place a bung in each speaker port and adjust them in and out as needed, if they are required in your listening
environment.
We advise retaining the bungs with your original packaging and manual.
Fitting the spikes
Warning: Be careful. Loudspeaker spikes are very sharp. When positioning the speakers avoid piercing any
electrical cables.
