Before deciding where to place your Beta speakers, survey your room Channel
and think about placement, keeping the following points in mind, using
Figure 1 as a guide:
• For best results, place the speakers 6'– 8' (1.5m–2.5m) apart.
• Position each speaker so that the tweeter is approximately at ear level.
• Generally, bass output will increase as the speaker is moved closer to a
Couch
wall or corner.
• Refer to “Home Theater” below if you also plan to use the speakers for Left Right
home theater reproduction. Surround Left Rear Center Rear Right Rear Surround

INSTALLING FEET
Beta 40 and Beta 50
These models feature four rubber feet, which enables them to be placed
on a smooth-surfaced floor, such as tile or hardwood. Four metal spikes
are supplied for use when the speaker is to be placed on a carpeted sur-
face, to decouple the speaker from the floor and prevent unwanted damp-
ing.To insert the spikes, gently lay the speaker on its side (not its front or
back) on a soft, nonabrasive surface. Each spike screws into the threaded
insert in the center of each rubber foot. Make sure all four spikes are
screwed in completely for stability.
NEVER drag the speaker to move it, as this will damage the spikes, the
feet and/or the wood cabinet itself. Always lift the speaker and carry it to
its new location.
CAUTION: Floorstanding (tower) loudspeakers have a high center of
gravity and may become unstable and tip over during earthquakes, or
if rocked, tipped or improperly positioned. If this is a concern, these
speakers should be anchored to the wall behind them, using the same
procedures and hardware customary for anchoring bookcases and wall
units.The customer is responsible for proper installation and proper
selection of hardware.
Figure 4.This figure shows how to connect bare wires to the terminals.
