4 Setup
1 Position speakers
For best stereo reproduction, place left and right
speakers no less than 60cm (24in) apart with
the speaker with volume control on the right.
Avoid having objects in front of the speakers and
also ensure the underside of each speaker is
unobstructed.
2 Connect speakers together
Connect the two speakers with the interconnect
cable (5), inserting one end into the output (13) on the
right speaker and the other end into the input socket
on the left speaker.
3 Connect to AC power
Connect the AC power cord (4) into the power
adapter (3). Connect the power adaptor lead (3) to
the DC power socket (14) and then insert the mains
plug on the AC power cord (4) into a mains outlet.
CAUTION: do not plug the AC power cord into the
mains until all other connections are made.
4 Turn on your speakers
When you connect the speakers to mains power
they will power up in standby mode. To turn them on,
press the control knob (8) on the right speaker or the
standby button (18) on the remote; the source status
indicator (9) glows solid amber showing that Line-in
audio input is selected.

1 Connect your device
To connect you will need a lead with a 3.5mm
stereo jack on one end to connect to the Line-in
input socket (16) and an appropriate connector on
the other to connect to the Line-out or headphone
output of the device you wish to connect, MP3/CD
Player, Laptop or TV etc.
2 Select Line-in audio input
When the status indicator (9) is amber, the audio
input is set to Line-in.
If the status indicator (9) is blue the speakers are in
Bluetooth mode, in which case press and hold the
control knob (8) or press the Line-in button (20) on
the remote control to change to Bluetooth mode.
If the status indicator (9) is off, the speakers are in
standby, in which case press the control knob (8), or
press the Line-in button (20) on the remote control to
turn them on.
3 Start music play on your device
Adjusting input level
Unless you experience audio distortion, we recommend
you keep the output volume on your device near
maximum and the input level switch (17) set to LOW.
Some computer headphone or audio outputs may have
high signal levels. If the sound is distorted, turn down
the volume level on the device.
Other audio devices, such as CD/DVD/Blu-ray players,
may also have high output signals but without the ability
to adjust the output volume. In this case, slide the input
level select switch (17) to HIGH to attenuate the signal
and prevent distortion.

8 Positioning your speakers 9 Status indicator light
As with all high-delity speakers, positioning and
room acoustics will inuence the quality of audio
reproduction, so we encourage you to experiment
when setting up to ensure best performance of your
MR1 system.
Speaker placement guide
Your MR1 speakers sound best when you and the
speakers form a triangle with you slightly further away
from the speakers than the distance between them.
For optimum performance, position speakers at least
60 cm apart; facing slightly inwards. Speakers should
be placed on a sturdy desk, shelf, or tabletop and not
directly on the oor.
Placing the speakers close to a wall will reinforce the
bass response while corners should be avoided as this
can result in a confused sound. Likewise, the room
where your MR1s are being used will sound better
with some soft furnishings. These will help to absorb
standings so that you can hear the true clarity of your
MR1s.
Connecting a sub-woofer
To further enhance the bass you can connect a sub-
woofer to the sub-woofer output (15).
For further information please visit our website.
The status indicator (9) on top of the right speaker
indicates the following:
amber solid: Line-in mode
blue solid: Bluetooth mode
blue flashes every second: discoverable in Bluetooth
flashes every 10 seconds: auto standby mode
