Dear MAGNAT Customer,
Congratulations on your fine new loudspeakers and thank you very much for choosing
MAGNAT! You have made an excellent choice. The high-quality speakers produced by
MAGNAT are renowned all over the world.
Please study the instructions and information below carefully before using your new
loudspeakers.
GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT CONNECTING YOUR MAGNAT MONITOR
LOUDSPEAKERS
Please always use a good quality loudspeaker connection cable from an audio dealer.
To prevent impairment of sound quality, we recommend cables with cross-sections of at
least 2.5 mm² for lengths up to 3 m and at least 4 mm² for lengths above 3 m.
Always turn off the amplifier or receiver before connecting or disconnecting loudspeaker
cables. Place the loudspeakers in their planned positions and cut the cables to the right
length. The cables for both channels should always be exactly the same length.
Strip 10 – 15 mm of insulation from the ends of the cables. Twist the ends – this is much
better than tinning them with solder – insert them in the terminals and tighten the terminal
screws firmly.
For good sound it is imperative that the cables must be connected in such a way that the
speakers are “in phase”. This means that the black negative terminals on the speakers
(-) must be connected to the negative (-) terminals on the amplifier, the red positive (+)
speaker terminals to the positive (+) amplifier terminals. To make this easier one wire of
most speaker cables is marked with a coloured strip or a ridge in the insulation.
Before switching on the system double-check all your connections and make sure that
the terminal screws are tight and that there are no short circuits caused by stray wire
filaments – this could cause serious damage to your amplifier!
THE MAGNAT MONITOR LOUDSPEAKERS IN STEREO MODE
In the ideal configuration the speakers and the listening position should form an
equilateral triangle. When the left and right speakers are the same distance from the
listening position their sound arrives at the same time, resulting in a harmonious, natural
music reproduction. (Fig. 1)

GB
There should be a clear line of sight between the loudspeakers and the listening position.
Any sound-absorbing or reflecting obstacles in the path will distort the sound. When you
install the loudspeakers the following distances should be maintained:
Monitor tower loudspeakers:at least 20 cm away from the rear wall and at least 30 cm
from the side walls. This will prevent excessive emphasis of the bass range.
Monitor 220:shelf loudspeakers should also be as free-standing as possible, the
distance to the sides and rear to walls and items should be at least 10 cm, the tweeters
should be located at ear height.
Monitor 1000, 880 Spikes:you should use the supplied spikes when setting the
speakers up. This isolates them from the supporting surface, preventing unpleasant
resonance effects. The spikes are screwed into the threaded bushes on the bottom of
the speaker.
MAGNAT MONITOR LOUDSPEAKERS AS A FRONT OR REAR LOUD-SPEAKER
The front loudspeakers are positioned at ear height on the left and right as equidistant
from the television as possible. The rear loudspeakers are placed at ear height or a little
above on the left and right besides or better behind the listening position. (Fig. 2)
Monitor 110, 220:if possible, the cross-over frequency for the front and rear channels
should be adjusted to approximately 80 Hz in the AV receiver's set-up. Otherwise all the
recommendations made in the previous chapter also apply.
MAGNAT MONITOR CENTER 210
The Monitor Center 210 loudspeaker visually and acoustically ideally matches the other
Monitor models. The loudspeaker is placed immediately on or under the television set.
Otherwise please adhere to the general recommendations outlined in the previous
chapters.
MAGNAT MONITOR SUBWOOFERS
The active subwoofers of the Monitor line visually and acoustically ideally match the
loudspeakers in the Monitor series. Please refer to the separate operating instructions
supplied with this product.

HOW TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR VALUABLE SPEAKERS
All MAGNAT loudspeakers are designed and built for optimum sound reproduction with
the tone controls in the central position – i.e. with “linear” amplifier output. Turning up the
bass and treble controls too far delivers more power to the woofers and/or tweeters, and
at high volumes this can actually destroy the speaker units!
If the output of your amplifier is significantly higher than the rated power handling capacity
of your speakers extremely high volumes can physically destroy your speakers. This
doesn’t actually happen often but you should be aware that it is possible.
Weak amplifiers with low output ratings can actually be more dangerous for your
speakers at medium volumes because weak amplifiers may overload much faster than
powerful ones and this causes measurable and audible distortion, which is extremely
dangerous to your loudspeakers.
Always turn the volume down immediately as soon as you hear distortion! If you like
listening to loud music make sure that your amplifier can deliver at least as much power
as the speakers’ power-handling rating.
THE SOUND YOU CAN’T HEAR...
Amplifiers, tuners and CD players can all produce inaudible high-frequency signals – and
this doesn’t only apply to cheap products. If your tweeters fail at low or medium volumes
you should have a qualified technician check your system components for dangerous
inaudible signals.
