PLACEMENT

STAGE A190/A180/A170 – LEFT AND RIGHT CHANNELS

For best results, place the speakers 6 – 10 feet (1.8m – 3m) apart. Angling the speakers toward the listening

position can improve the stereo imaging. The speakers will produce the most accurate stereo soundstage when

the angle between the listener and the speakers is between 40 and 60 degrees.

Use the included carpet spikes for stability and improved performance if you are placing your Stage A190/A180/

A170 speakers on a thick rug or plush carpeting. The carpet spikes can be manually screwed into outrigger feet

provided.

CAUTION: Floorstanding (tower) loudspeakers have a high center of gravity and may become unstable and

tip over during earthquakes or if they are rocked, tipped or improperly positioned. Consider anchoring

these speakers to the wall behind them, using the procedures and hardware customary for anchoring

bookcases and wall units. You are responsible for proper installation and proper selection of hardware.

Generally, bass output will increase as the speaker

is moved closer to a wall or corner.

For best performance, we recommend that you

place the speakers at least 20 inches (51cm) away

from the side and rear walls.

FOAM PLUG

There are two operation modes for A120,

Bookshelﬂ oudspeaker & On-wall loudspeaker. In

the Bookshelf mode, A120 is the ported system

(port in rear), and in the On-wall mode, A120 is

semi-sealed system which requires a foam plug

inside the port.

WALL-MOUNTING THE STAGE A120

We have designed the Stage A120 speakers to mount

directly onto a wall. Each speaker has four keyholes on

the back and will require four 4.0x38mm wood screws

fastened to a wall stud. If a wall stud is unavailable,

install an anchor appropriate for a 4.0x38mm screw.

NOTE: You are responsible for the correct selection

and use of mounting hardware (available through

hardware stores) that will ensure the proper and safe

wall-mounting of the speakers. 4.0x38mm wood screws

not provided.

1) Using the included wall brackets, mark the positions

on the wall where you would like to place the

mounting screws.

2) Fasten four 4.0x38mm wood screws to the wall

using the markings from Step 1 as your guide.

Leave an 1/16" (1.59mm) space between the wall

and screwhead. If a wall stud is not available, use an

appropriate anchor.

3)

Place the speaker on the wall by aligning the keyholes

on the back of the speaker to the screwheads on the

wall.

Once positioned properly, the speaker should

slide down slightly and become secure.

STAGE A120 – SURROUND CHANNELS (5.1-CHANNEL SYSTEM)

When you use these speakers as surround-channel speakers in a 5.1-channel system, place them slightly behind

the listening position, facing each other. Ideally, they should be 5 – 6 feet (1.5m – 1.8m) above the ﬂoor. An

alternate location would be on a wall behind the listening position, facing forward. The surround speakers should

not call attention to themselves while they’re playing. Experiment with their placement until you hear a diffuse,

ambient sound accompanying the sounds that you hear from the front left, front right and center speakers.

STAGE A120 – SURROUND CHANNELS (7.1-CHANNEL SYSTEM)

When you use these speakers as surround-channel speakers in a 7.1-channel system, place the surround side

speakers directly to the sides of the listening position, at least 5 – 6 feet (1.5m – 1.8m) above the ﬂoor.

CONNECTIONS

CAUTION: Make sure that all of the system’s electrical components are turned OFF (and preferably

unplugged from their AC outlets) before making any connections.

Speakers and ampliﬁers have corresponding positive and negative ("+" and "–") connection terminals. All Stage

series speakers have connection terminals that are marked "+" and "–" on the terminal-cup assembly. Additionally,

the "+" terminals have red markings, while the "–" terminals have black markings.

To ensure proper polarity, connect each "+" terminal on the back of the ampliﬁer or receiver to the respective

"+" (red) terminal on each speaker. Connect the "–" terminals in a similar way. Do not reverse polarities (i.e., "+"

to "–" or "–" to "+") when making connections. Doing so will cause poor stereo imaging and diminished bass

performance.

IMPORTANT : Make sure the (+) and (–) wires or connectors do not touch each other or the other terminal.

Touching wires can cause a short circuit that can damage your receiver or ampliﬁer.

USING BARE WIRE OR PIN CONNECTORS:

USING SPADE CONNECTORS:

The Stage series speakers’ gold-plated speaker connectors can accept a variety of wire connector types: bare wire,

pin connectors, spade connectors and banana connectors.

USING BANANA CONNECTORS:

BASIC SINGLE-WIRE CONNECTION

To connect the speakers using a single wire, connect the ampliﬁer to each speaker as shown in the illustration

below.

IMPORTANT: Do not remove the metal jumper bars from between the two sets of connectors

when connecting the speaker wires.

BI-WIRE CONNECTION

All Stage series speaker connector panels have two sets of input connectors that are joined by metal jumper bars.

The upper set of connectors is for the tweeter driver assembly, and the lower set of connectors is for the woofer(s).

This arrangement allows you to bi-wire the speakers using a single stereo ampliﬁer or using two stereo ampliﬁers.

Bi-wiring can offer performance advantages and more ﬂexibility in power-ampliﬁer selection over a conventional

single-wire connection.

Before bi-wiring the speakers, remove the jumper bars.

CARING FOR YOUR SPEAKERS

• Do not place objects on top of the speaker.

• Wipe the cabinet with a clean, dry cloth to remove dust. Damp cloths may dull the cabinet ﬁnish. Do not use

volatile liquids or solvents such as benzene, paint thinner or alcohol on the cabinet.

• Do not spray chemicals near the cabinet.

• To remove dust from the grille fabric, use a vacuum cleaner set to "low" suction.

• Do not wash the grilles in water, as it may fade the color or make them uneven.

• If the woofer cones become dusty, you can carefully sweep them clean with a soft, dry calligraphy brush or

paint brush. Do not use a damp cloth.

• NEVER touch the tweeter dome or put anything against it.
