2. Positioning
Speaker Installation
800 D3, 802 D3 and 803 D3 are intended to be floor
mounted only and are supplied on wheels to aid
with positioning. It is important to ensure that they
stand firmly on the floor using the spike feet supplied
whenever possible.
Note: If you are installing the product on very thick
carpet such that the wheels prevent the speaker
from resting solely on the spikes, you may wish to
remove the wheels from the bottom of the plinth,
using a 5mm hex (Allen) key. Due to the weight of
the speakers, removal of the wheels should only be
undertaken by two people – one to tilt the speaker
sideways and hold it while the other removes
the wheels.
Once the speakers are in the correct position the
spikes, inbuilt in the plinth, can be released. Placing
your fingers in the gap between the plinth and the floor
locate the four spike cups. If your speaker is positioned
on a hard floor leave the spike cups in place to protect
the flooring. If your speaker is on carpet remove the
four spike cups, which are held magnetically, and retain
them for future use. This will reveal the spike ready for
it to be lowered into position.
Directly above each spike/spike cup you will feel a
three pronged locking nut. Using your fingers, spin the
locking nut, as directed above in step 2, to lower the
spike/spike cup towards the floor. If the locking nut is
too tight to turn, insert the supplied metal bar into the
hole at the end of one of the prongs and turn; releasing
the locking nut (see above illustration).

As the spike/spike cup meets the floor continue to
turn the locking nut lifting the speaker off its wheels.
Repeat this process with all four spikes/spike cups
and adjust the height to ensure the speaker rests
firmly without rocking.
To lock the spikes/spike cups in place insert the metal
bar into one of the four holes in the spikes. Using the
metal bar to stop the spike turning, rotate the locking
nut, as directed above in step 5. Once the locking nut
is released, remove the metal bar and continue to spin
the locking nut returning it to its locked position in the
plinth. To ensure the locking nut is tightly locked in
place reinsert the metal bar into one of the four holes
on the spike. With the metal bar holding the spike in
position, use your fingers to turn the locking nut until it
can no longer rotate. Repeat this for each spike.
If the speaker needs to be repositioned the spikes
must be returned back into the plinth before the
product is moved. To do this insert the metal bar into
one of the four holes on the spike. With the metal bar
holding the spike in position, use your fingers to turn
the locking nut, as directed above in step 2, releasing
it. Then continue to spin the locking nut until it can no
longer rotate; this will ensure the locking nut and spike
are engaged. Now turn the locking nut, as directed
above in step 3, and the spike will start ascending
back into the plinth. Once the spike has been returned
to the plinth replace the spike cup (if removed) and the
speaker can now be repositioned.
