INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR
NATURAL FOUNDATIONS®
The job of the speaker stand is to raise the loudspeaker to ear height. When this is done correctly,
most aspects of the listening experience benefit.
Bass is tighter, mids and highs are clearer, and
imaging detail improves. Taking your speakers
off your Foundations and listening to them on the
floor for a few minutes quickly demonstrates the
importance of speaker mounting and positioning.
The speaker stand needs to be competent in
many areas in order for your loudspeakers to
achieve optimum performance. Well engineered
speaker stands like Natural Foundations® rigidly
hold speakers perfectly still and are free from
resonance and diffraction problems. When set
up correctly, Natural Foundations® will greatly
enhance your audio video system’s acoustic performance and visual appeal.

Where you locate your speakers in your listening
room will greatly affect sound quality. All speakers are placement sensitive; moving them a few
inches can noticeably change the sound. Take
the time to find the ideal speaker locations for
your room. The easiest way to find the optimum
speaker locations is with educated trial and error.
Your Sanus trained audio consultant can get you
started in the right direction, but in the end you
need to trust your ears. Happy Listening!

1] Remove all parts from package. Damaged
or missing parts can be quickly obtained by
contacting Sanus Customer Service at (800)
359-5520 or www.sanus.com.
2] Group each top plate and base with a pillar.
The rounded edge of the pillar faces forward.
The speaker cable hole in the base and the bolt
mounting hole in the top plate should be to the
rear of the pillar.
3] Using the 2.25” base screws, align countersunk
holes in the base plate with corresponding holes
in either end of each pillar. Tighten screws with
a large tipped Phillips screw driver. A little hand
soap on the threads may make the screws easier
to turn. Using the 1.25” top plate screws, align
countersunk holes in the top plate with corresponding holes in each pillar and tighten. Make
sure that each screw is following the pilot hole.
To avoid stripping the screw holes, do not use
a power screwdriver for final tightening.

4] Two forms of speaker mounts are provided, brass

push them into the holes in the corner of the top

speaker pads are self-adhesive and should
be placed over the holes in the corner of the
