With Riga, Cabasse proposes a wide palette of Hi Fi / audio video systems fitted with the
BC17, the latest of the SCS (Spatially Coherent System) coaxial range of drivers.
With these 2-way speakers combined with a Cabasse Cabasse active subwoofer, you can get a
very high quality system, either in a 2.1 configuration (standard stereo) or in a 5.1 configura-
tion (5 channels system) or 6.1 or 7.1...
Depending on your system - stereo or multi-channel - the size of the listening room, your taste
and demand, your Artis dealer will guide you in selecting your Cabasse subwoofer(s):
Santorin 25, Santorin 30i, Santorin 30.
INSTALLATION
The components of your system:
2, 3, 5, 6 or 7 Riga
1 Cabasse active subwoofer
Riga on wall version
The wall bracket of Riga on wall has been designed to allow a
convenient positioning of the BC17 driver in many directions
+/- 43° in any direction, and to give the possibility to hide the
speaker cable in the wall with no apparent bolts or screws
Please follow step by step the instructions as shown in
Riga on base version
Riga on base is delivered with a little cradle, pose the sphere Riga
on this cradle. This system enables you to put Riga on a book-
shelf.
Floor standing Riga
The stand version is supplied with adjustable spikes for a per-
fect stability even if the floor is not horizontal.
Positioning of Riga
Positioning of the speakers: if possible, try to match with the
3
drawing, with the Cabasse subwoofer in the front area
facing the listening spot. Its position against a wall reinforces
the extreme low register and limits the reflections between 80
and 200 Hz. However to obtain the best result, it is always
necessary to carry out tests according to the acoustics of the
room.

It is imperative to respect the correct phasing when connecting:
+ to + (red) and - to - (black).
