PIEGA_Manual_uni_de_RZ.indd 27 02.08.2007 10:39:47 Uhr «Music. That‘s really the only important issue when it comes to loudspeakers...» In our view, the superior loudspeaker is the one that does not interfere. One that adds no sound of its own. That accurately and naturally conveys what was played in the concert or recording studio. Since 1986 we have been working to perfect this ideal – with a pioneering spirit, inventiveness and exacting craftsmanship.
PIEGA_Manual_uni_de_RZ.indd 26 02.08.2007 10:39:47 Uhr Contents This user manual describes how to optimally install and connect the PIEGA loudspeakers for a wide range of uses and contains some useful information on operating, caring for and maintaining your loudspeakers. It also contains instructions for unpacking and setting up the loudspeakers.
PIEGA_Manual_uni_de_RZ.indd 25 02.08.2007 10:39:46 Uhr Precautions Please read this user manual carefully and pay special attention to the following precautions and warnings. Safety Precautions: Ensure without fail that your new PIEGA loudspeakers are mounted, positioned and connected exactly according to these instructions. PIEGA loudspeakers were only designed for use in dry residential environments within a temperature range of 10...40°C.
PIEGA_Manual_uni_de_RZ.indd 24 02.08.2007 10:39:43 Uhr Unpacking the Loudspeakers Special care was taken in the packaging of your new PIEGA quality products in order to ensure that your loudspeakers reach your living room safely and undamaged. In order to avoid any damage when unpacking the loudspeakers, follow closely the instructions below without fail.
PIEGA_Manual_uni_de_RZ.indd 23 02.08.2007 10:39:42 Uhr Uses The PIEGA Loudspeaker Series comprises floor-standing, satellite and center loudspeakers. Some series include all three loudspeaker types. All loudspeakers of the same series are based on the same technology, either dome tweeter or PIEGA ribbon tweeter.
PIEGA_Manual_uni_de_RZ.indd 22 02.08.2007 10:39:42 Uhr Positioning Perfect sound quality depends on the correct positioning and alignment of the loudspeakers. For stereo operation, the best results are achieved using the stereo triangle layout. In multi-channel systems, the front, center and rear speakers should be positioned as equidistantly as possible and aligned to the point of listening.
PIEGA_Manual_uni_de_RZ.indd 21 02.08.2007 10:39:42 Uhr On-Wall Installation You can use the wall bracket (available as an accessory) to mount the satellite loudspeakers either on the wall or ceiling and thus use it as a rear or side speaker for both diffused and direct sound. The brackets are also used when installing the loudspeakers for a room sound system. A special bracket is also available (as an accessory) for mounting the center loudspeakers on walls.
PIEGA_Manual_uni_de_RZ.indd 20 02.08.2007 10:39:41 Uhr Connecting the Loudspeakers The terminal for single wiring applications is provided at the back of the loudspeaker. This is used for connecting standard loudspeaker cables with banana plugs or with a lead. Ideally, PIEGA loudspeakers should be connected with the OPUS 3 or OPUS 1 loudspeaker cable which is available as an accessory. Connection: Ensure that the electronic components are switched off before making the connection.
PIEGA_Manual_uni_de_RZ.indd 19 02.08.2007 10:39:41 Uhr Running in the Loudspeakers As a loudspeaker is basically a mechanical transducer consisting of several different components, the individual elements must be run in during the initial weeks. This will ensure that the sound quality potential of your loudspeakers is fully utilized. You will definitely notice the resulting improvement in sound. Recommendations: In the first days and weeks listen only at normal volume.
PIEGA_Manual_uni_de_RZ.indd 18 02.08.2007 10:39:41 Uhr Daily Use From development to production, right down to quality testing, PIEGA only uses materials and components of the highest quality. Your new PIEGA loudspeakers are provided with a polished aluminum surface. Although this material is not very sensitive, it should be treated with due care. Care instructions: Clean the surfaces of the PIEGA loudspeakers with a soft, fluff-free cloth.
