LOUDSPEAKER PREPARATION
opus
OPUS 1, 2 & 3 SPIKES
Your floor standing Opus speakers are delivered with the plinth and spikes already fitted. Levelling/seating the speaker is best achieved by adjusting either of the rear spikes until the speaker is stable without rocking. Release the top knob, on the underside. Turn spike out and down to level. Re-lock top knob. For wood or soft floors 8 metal spike seats and self-adhesive pads are provided for use as required. A set of extra long spikes for deep carpets are provided and may be used as required.
WARNING: Opus speakers are heavy and the spikes can penetrate softer floors materials over extended periods.
CONNECTIONS AND TERMINALS
Choosing and Preparing Cables
Specialist audio cable usually offers better performance than general purpose ‘bell’ or ‘zip’ wire. Choose a cable of suitable diameter – cable that is too thin will limit the dynamics of the sound and may impair the bass response. Audio cable is polarised, with two cores of different colours, or often a raised rib of coloured tracer in the case of twin cable. Split the twin cores to a depth of about 40mm. Carefully strip the insulation from each end, leaving about 10mm of bare wire. If the cable is stranded, lightly twist to gather any loose strands.
Crossover Networks
OPUS front and centre loudspeakers use a specially designed bi-wireable crossover panel with six terminal binding posts. Please follow the drawing care­fully to see the correct orientation of the loudspeaker terminals. The upper ter­minals connect to the treble unit, the middle pair to the mid-range and the lower pair to the bass units. As supplied, the treble terminal pair is connected to the mid-range pair and bass terminal pair via removable metal straps. These should be lef t in place for standard single cable installations. The OPUS surround uses a conventional twin terminal crossover panel.
Connecting Loudspeaker Terminals
Unscrew the terminal. Thread the bored end of each cable through the hole in the bottom of the terminal post. Ensure that there are no loose strands which may touch adjacent terminals. Retighten the terminal securely. NOTE: When connecting loudspeakers, the cables to left and right channels should be of equal length, regardless of the distance of the speakers from the amplifier. This applies to front and rear channels.

POSITIONING FRONT SPEAKERS
Angle speakers inward by 5º to 30º for a clearer, more tuneful mid range.
If the loudspeakers are placed too close to the walls the bass will increase but may be boomy and indistinct. If the loudspeakers are placed further away from the walls, the inward angle may be increased by upto 40%, although this may restrict the width of the optimum listening position. As personal taste plays a large role, experiment with different configurations and play a wide range of programme before finalising the position of your speakers.
Positioning the speakers. Place the speakers so that you are the same distance from each. The distance between the speakers should be the same as between you and the speakers.
For best results the speakers should be at best 10 inches (20cm) in front of a wall and at least 30 inches (70cm) from any corner.

CONNECTING HIFI SPEAKERS
Single wired a single amplifier, tri-link bar is fitted
Tri or Bi-wired – a single amplifier, with separate wires to drive the bass/mid unit and the treble unit. Additional links are supplied to allow Bi-wiring.
Tri or Bi-amplified – two or three amplifiers. One drives each section or 2 sections with Bi-wire link e.g mid/hf. (Remove all link sections when Tri-Amping)
Important Note, please make sure that heavy multi-standard cables are well connected and clamped. Single loose strands arcing can cause noise in the woofers like a faulty speaker.
opus
Using separate cables for treble, mid and bass units in Tri or Bi-wiring configuration reduces intermodulation effects and improves headroom and clarity. To Bi-wire, you will need to install two lengths of twin core cable between the amplifier and each loudspeaker. Unscrew each terminal a few turns and remove the metal tri-link straps. Use the bi-link straps (supplied in accessories) to connect the treble and mid-range terminals. Connect the cables between the amplifier and the loudspeakers as indicated and re-tighten all the terminals securely. Note: Some amplifiers have two pairs of output terminals to facilitate bi-wiring but this is not essential. The advantages of bi-wiring are fully retained if your amplifier has only one pair of output terminals per channel (as in the illustration).

POSITIONING AV SPEAKERS
THE HOME THEATRE ENVIRONMENT
Front and Effects Channels
The front loudspeakers are placed on either side of the television screen, 2 to 3 metres apart. The speakers should be angled slightly so they are aimed towards the listeners. As the rear surround channels are the ‘effects’ channels the reproduced sound should be as room filling as possible. We recommend placing the speakers in a high position, behind the listeners head. If the rear wall is more than 1 metre behind the listening seat, position the units on the side walls. If the walls are a long way from the listening seat, consider stand mounting the loudspeakers. Most of the dialogue comes from the centre loudspeaker. Speech should appear to originate from the actors mouths. Operating height is important. Ideally the front and centre channel speakers should be at the same height. For this reason the centre channel speaker is best operated above the television monitor.
The OPUS Tri-Centre Loudspeaker
The loudspeaker should be positioned centrally between the loudspeakers close to the television and mounted either above or below the screen. The loudspeaker should be located on a stable flat surface to avoid any danger of the cabinet moving when it is vibrated by high sound levels. If you mount the unit on top of the television, move it forward so that the front grilles are level with or slightly in front of the screen. This will reduce reflections from the screen and the top of the cabinet. Although you can place the centre channel loudspeaker under the TV monitor, this should be regarded as a second best. The preferred position is always above the monitor.
The OPUS Tri-Surround Loudspeaker
Connect the cable to the speaker. The speaker should ideally be sited 600mm – 1.5 metres above the listen­ing position and 2.5 - 3.5 metres apart, central to the listener and behind the listening position, preferably on a rear wall. If the listening position is some distance from a rear wall, the loudspeakers may be mounted on opposite side walls but always behind the listening position. Ensure that the wall is strong and can support the product. Drill two 5mm holes in the wall 160mm apart and horizontally aligned. Fix a suitable No 8 round head screw firmly into each hole using appropriate wall plugs. Leave a stub of 5mm protruding from the wall. Align the holes in the mounting brackets over the screw heads and carefully lower the unit onto the screws. The speaker can now be securely attached with the spacers rest­ing against the wall. Now connect the speakers to the amplifier before final mounting of the surrounds.

Subwoofer
As the ear is unable to detect the direction from which deep bass originates, this allows you freedom to position a subwoofer according to the level of bass required. Placing the subwoofer near a corner or particularly close to a wall will boost the bass but may impair clarity. The performance of Home Theatre systems can often be enhanced by using a pair of subwoofers.
OPUS Surround Loudspeaker
Four self adhesive spaces are provided with each unit. Attach one close to each rear corner of the cabinet. This speaker is designed primarily for wall mounting – please see separate section for this topic.
OPUS Centre Loudspeaker
A set of self adhesive pads is provided. Peel off the backing material and fix a pad close to each corner of the bottom surface of the loudspeaker.

Setting Loudspeaker Sizes
Many digital AV Processors require you to specify the size of speakers in all channels. These are usually ‘Large or small’. For Opus set the front speakers to ‘large’, set the centre to ‘large’ and the surrounds to small. The subwoofer then will reproduce only the LFE bass signals.
If you are not using a subwoofer: Set the front speakers to set the subwoofer option on the processor to ‘Off’ or ‘No’. The front channels will now receive all the system bass.
(If you are using a subwoofer: When front speakers are set to small the bass for these channels will pass into the subwoofer. If you choose large for the front channels, bass will be reproduced from the front speakers and the sub will just control the LFE channel).
Setting Levels
Once the loudspeaker settings have been finalised, put the AV amplifier into its “test” mode (see instructions supplied with your processor). Adjust the level of each channel in turn until all channels are reproduced at equal loudness.
On some programme material the surround channel may seem lower than the front. Do not readjust this level. You may, however, need to adjust the subwoofer output level. Avoid setting too high a level or you will swamp the sound with bass. This can be tiring to listen to, and may limit the subwoofer’s abili­ty to respond to large bass transients. You should also set a sensible level going into the subwoofer from the AV processor.
SETTING UP AV SYSTEMS

Delay Settings
Many AV processors feature delay settings. The purpose of delay is to enable surround and dialogue information to arrive at the listener’s ears at the same time as the front channels, even when the listen­ing seat is in a non-ideal position. On some processors, this can be achieved by setting the distance from the listening position to each speaker in turn, but other systems allow only a time delay setting. RReeaarr DDeellaayy
: If the listening position is equidistant from the front and rear speakers, a low delay setting should be set. The closer the listener is to the rear speakers the higher the delay setting used should be. CCeennttrree DDeellaayy
: If the centre speaker is level with (or slightly behind) the front speakers, set
the delay to zero. If the centre speaker is forward of the front speakers, increase the delay.
LFE
In the cinema the low frequency effects channel is an extra bass channel with its own subwoofer and not a regular subwoofer channel. In domestic systems the LFE channel typically feeds into the sub­woofer. Where no subwoofer is used, the LFE signal is combined with front channel information and sent to the front speakers. When you set the LFE level at your AV processor, use care as the powerful low fre­quencies can overload domestic loudspeakers. If you hear popping or thumping noises coming from the front loudspeakers or subwoofer, immediately turn the AV Processor’s volume level down and then lower the LFE level. This should cure the problem. If it does not, lower the volume level at the subwoofer (if you are using one) until the problem disappears. Please read the relevant sections of your AV amplifier manual and familiarise yourself with the various issues. If you are unsure, consult your dealer for help.
Phase
A home theatre system should have a precise front stage, a diffuse rear stage and good localisation of dialogue. If the colours on the loudspeaker terminals do not correspond with those on the amplifier, the sound will appear poorly focussed or ‘Out of phase’. For this reason it is essential that the speakers are connected accordingly to the wiring diagrams in this manual.

ABOUT YOUR LOUDSPEAKER
opus
18
The OPUS is a new series of loudspeakers. They are large format loudspeakers, utilising multi­ple drive units. The loudspeaker meets the demands of the most discerning audiophile.
These 3 way loudspeakers exhibit exceptional performance characteristics based upon the fol­lowing concepts.
Very low distortion across the entire audio band. Low excursion requirement of the cone drivers. High flux magnet systems enabling good dynamic response and impulse control. Broadband dispersion for excellent stereo image and staging. Careful attention to component design, operation, integration and acoustics.
THE CABINET
The enclosure of your speaker is finished to a high-quality furniture standard. Real wood veneers have been selected and carefully patterned matched by hand. Over a period of several days a high gloss ‘Piano’ finish has been achieved. This involves several coatings of lacquers being applied, each being cut and polished before the next coat is applied. Only through this time-consuming and skilled technique, can we achieve the necessary depth and lustre of gloss.
Instead of the usual cuboid shape of speaker cabinet, Opus is built with a beautiful curvaceous design, with a special purpose:- to reduce to negligable levels any internal cabinet standing waves and reflections. Parallel-sided tall boxes promote the creation of acoustic wave formation within the box by reflection up and down the length, these can add and subtract creating anomalies in the forward response. The multiple cur ved and braced interior of the Opus cabi­net prevents this and results in a much clearer, more precise sound.
Skilfull engineering in ‘MDF’ or Medium Density Fibre Board, universally known to be one of the best enclosures materials, has resulted in an ideally shaped, very strong, internally multiple braced, low resonance structure.
‘THE OPUS SERIES’

THE DRIVE UNITS
THE BASS DRIVERS
The bass driver(s) incorporates a new design of cone utilising our own new bi-carbon weave process. Carbon fibre has immense longitudinal strength and is used in many structures where high strength and light weight are key attributes. Carbon fibre can be found liberally used in Formula 1 Racing Cars, Aeroplanes, Boats, Spacecraft and even Golf Clubs.
These bundles are woven and impregnated with special bonding resins that are subsequently pressure formed and heat cured. The resulting material is stiff, rigid and exhibits very low levels of internal resonance. Consequently, energy losses in the cone transfer mechanism are very low.
Similarly, lateral voice coil strength is very high. We use a combination of half hard aluminium and resin bonded glass fibre. This, in turn, contributes towards some of the lowest distortion figures ever seen in conventional drivers. The dust cap/cover is of the same material as the cone.
The bass drivers operate only over the low frequency range. They are only used over their true pistonic range. The cone is terminated with a conventional large half roll of synthetic butyl rubber with excellent inherent damping qualities.
A high performance traditional ferrite magnet system is used. Motional noise can be a problem with high output bass systems. We address this by moving air through vents in the voice coil. The magnet systems is also fully vented throughout.

THE 75mm 3” SOFT DOME MIDRANGE
A studio monitor quality large dome mid-range is used to cover the crucial midband frequencies. The key feature of this driver is exceptionally low distortion over its entire working range, typically less than 1% when producing 100dB at 1 metre. It is mounted in a custom matched fascia plate to provide partial horn loading and giving a broad angle of dispersion to its upper crossover point. The fascia plate is constucted from die cast aluminium, designed to place the units as close as possible for optimum integration and to create a point source effect. It has a large 75mm 3” voice coil again based on a rigid half hard aluminium former. The dome is pressure equalised by an underside baffle and chamber.
THE 25mm 1” SOFT DOME TWEETER
The highest frequencies are also handled by a soft dome driver. Our extensive research has proven these are a better choice than the metallic based domes that typically add their own character to the treble. A feature of the tweeters, as with the mids, is wide dispersion and very low distortion, again typically less than 1% at 100dB at 1 metre. The unit features a high flux neodymium magnet structure, producing a typical efficiency of 93dB 1W@1m. This unit has a frequency response extending far beyond audible frequencies to around 45kHz.
THE CROSSOVER AND WIRING
Monster Cable XP is used throughout the internal wiring (USA only - other countries use alternative brands of high-quality OFC cable). High quality printed circuit boards are used, and all connections are made to audiophile standards. All inductors used are air-cored and use large gauge wire for very low insertion loss. All capacitors used are either, low loss, low ERC polypropylene or high quality audio grade reversable electrolytics.

QUALITY MANAGEMENT
Your Opus loudspeakers have been constructed to the highest standards of quality throughout.
The acoustic components and the whole system have been manufactured to very tight tolerances of +/- 1 decibel of sound pressure level for each driver throughout the operation range of the unit.
All drive unit components are serially numbered and the original test record set for your loudspeakers is retained on file in our factory quality control department. This enables us to give a extended guarantee of identical replacement parts should they ever be required.
A copy of these test reports is included in the back of this manual. These should be retained for future reference.
A certificate of conformance to the original prototype specification, confirmed by the Opus designer and engineering director is included in this pack.
