2. Sticking the rubber pads
We recommend that you stick the rubber pads, provided with the removable base, on the
loudspeakers. If you use the loudspeakers without the removable base, you should place
the rubber pads on the provided inserts, to avoid any damage.
As a rule, you can stick the rubber pads under the loudspeakers or under its base in order
to protect the loudspeaker itself and its base.
3. Putting spikes (HORUS 11F)
After mounting the base of the speaker, screw the spikes on it (no required tools).
Note: The presence of pads or decoupling spikes prevents vibrations to be transmitted to
the floor.
III. STEREO SETUP
1. Position of the speakers FL/FR
The Horus loudspeakers have been designed to reproduce all types of music as accurately
as possible, provided that a few rules should be followed to optimize performance and
achieve a realistic sound image.
Ideally, the speakers should be placed symmetrically in front of the listening position to form
an equilateral triangle. The cabinets should be placed at the same height and the same
distance from the rear wall and the adjacent side surfaces.
In order to optimize the setup of the speakers in your listening room, we recommend the
following tests :
•Above all, you should avoid positioning the loudspeakers in the corners of your room. The
result will be an artificial increase in the level of bass, masking the speed and details of
this range.
•First, adjust the spacing of the two speakers in order to find the realistic balance between
a wide sound image (wide apart speakers) and a sound image respecting the punctuality
of the voices (close speakers).
•Secondly, move the speakers away from the rear wall by steps of 10 cm to find the
balance between the depth of the sound image (far from the back wall) and the level of
the extreme low frequencies (close to the back wall).

•Finally, adjust the loudspeakers orientation by turning them gradually toward the center
of the listening area. If you leave the speakers parallel, you may want to bring them closer
together, if you orient them more than 30°, you may increase their spacing.

2. Connections
ALL THE CONNECTIONS MUST BE MADE WITH THE EQUIPMENT TURNED OFF.
It is essential to connect the speakers using the correct polarity. Make sure to connect the
" + " terminal of the speaker (Red) to the " + " output terminal of the amplifier. Then, make
sure to connect the " - " terminal of the speaker (Black) to the " - " output terminal of the
amplifier. A wrong connection would cause a cribled stereo image and loss of bass. Use
high quality speaker cable.
