1. Desembalaxe e inspección

Carefully remove the speaker from its packaging. Inspect the speaker for any signs of damage during transit. If damage is found, contact your retailer immediately.

2. Attaching Feet

Your Kendall speakers come with two types of feet: rubber feet and spike feet. Choose the appropriate type based on your flooring.

• Pés de goma: Ideal for hard surfaces like wood, tile, or laminate to prevent scratches and provide isolation. Screw the rubber feet directly into the threaded inserts on the bottom of the speaker.
• Spike Feet: Recommended for carpeted floors to penetrate the carpet and couple the speaker directly to the subfloor, improving stability and sound clarity. Screw the spike feet into the threaded inserts. If using on hard floors, place the protective discs under each spike to prevent damage.

3. Colocación de altofalantes

Optimal speaker placement is crucial for sound quality. Consider the following guidelines:

• Imaxe estéreo: Place speakers equidistant from your primary listening position, forming an equilateral triangle.
• Distancia do muro: Experiment with placing speakers a few feet away from walls to reduce bass boom and improve soundstage profundidade.
• Toe-in: Angle the speakers slightly inward towards the listening position to optimize imaging and detail.
• Acústica da sala: Soft furnishings, carpets, and curtains can help absorb reflections and improve sound quality.
