Infinity ALPHA Series Instruction Manual
Congratulations on choosing Infinity ALPHA Series Loudspeakers. The instructions in
this manual will help you realize the full potential of your loudspeakers.
UNPACKING
The packing materials of your ALPHA Series speakers are designed to protect the
loudspeakers from any damage due to rough handling during shipment. We strongly
suggest that you keep the packing material for future purposes, in case you move or
if your loudspeakers should require service.
POSITIONING
Proper positioning of the speakers within the listening room is of primary importance
in order to achieve the best possible sound. Room reflections, furniture placement,
heavy drapes, window reflections and so on can influence sonic quality, balance and
the stereo image. It is essential to experiment with different locations to determine
which placement offers the best overall balance and imaging. For the best stereo
effect, the speakers should be placed at least 2 to 3 meters apart. At times, angling
the speakers slightly inward toward the listening position will add to overall
spaciousness and deliver a more realistic sound stage. Try to avoid placing the
speakers directly against the wall, or in corners of the room because this may sacrifice
depth and image and create excessive boominess. If you must place the speakers
higher than ear level tilt them downward to direct the tweeters toward your ears.
INSTALLATION OF THE SPIKED FEET
All floor standing models come with spiked feet to isolate the speaker from floor
vibrations. To install the spiked feet follow these directions:
1. Turn the speaker upside down with the bottom of the enclosure facing upwards.
2. Thread a nut onto each spiked foot until the nut reaches the unthreaded section.
3. Screw the spiked feet into the threaded mounting sockets.
4. Adjust the spiked feet so they all are at the same height, then tighten the nuts to
prevent the spiked feet from changing height, or from rocking side to side.
