QR 5
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Audiovector QR series
speakers. Your new Audiovector speakers will provide you with
endless hours of listening pleasure, either as part of a stereo or
surround sound system. Audiovector products are unique, not only
because of their unique concept for upgrades and inherent listenability.
Audiovector also receives excellent reviews form the international
hi-fi press with its exacting standards. And, best of all: Audiovector
owners praise the sound quality, reliability and build quality of their
investment.
1. AN IMPORTANT PART OF YOUR MUSIC SYSTEM
The loudspeakers are the most important part of any stereo/surround
sound system. Why? Because the loudspeakers transform electrical
energy to acoustical energy in a room, which interacts with the speakers
themselves. This interaction is very important. With Audiovector this
interaction is easy to optimize.
2. ENDLESS HOURS OF LISTENING PLEASURE
We congratulate you on your new loudspeakers and are sure that you
will be thrilled by their sound. Should you, however, eventually be
tempted to experience the Audiovector sound quality further, please
contact your dealer who will be able to inform of possible upgrades and
expansions.
3. UNPACKING
⚠
Caution: Please make sure not to damage the speakers whilst
unpacking them. Please retain cartons for possible later use.
4. CONNECTIONS
As no system is better than its weakest link, please choose your cables
carefully. In comparison with many other speaker cables, one run of
Audiovector ZERO cables has proven to be superior to two or three
runs of alternative 'good' sounding cables. You will get the best long
-term performance by using high quality 4 mm banana plugs. On all
Audiovector ZERO cables, the plugs are not soldered, but crimped
and airtight instead, in order to attain the best possible performance.
The most important parameters of a high-quality cable are a fast,
clean, open and natural sound. You may be aware that some cables
(and speakers, too) appear 'slow down' the speed of sound. This is a
type of distortion, which is best avoided. Please consult your
Audiovector dealer for additional information.
5. SPIKES AND DECOUPLING
All Audiovectors are supplied with spikes. Spikes are meant to penetrate
carpets and reach down to a solid material. The idea is that the speaker

should not wobble. For the highest level of precision and sound
reproduction, the membranes should move the air, not the cabinet.
Furthermore, spikes provide effective decoupling of resonance. This
results in a cleaner and more dynamic sound.
⚠
Caution: Please note that spikes are sharp!
6. GRILLES
All Audiovectors come with acoustically transparent grilles. The grilles
are held invisibly in place by magnets. If you wish to remove the
grilles, please carefully prize them away from the cabinet with the tips
of your fingers.
⚠
Caution: Do not try to lift or move the speakers with the grilles
fitted.
7. FIXING THE QR WALL TO A WALL
For safety reasons, if you are unsure of your ability to provide a secure
and safe fixing, please obtain the services of a competent person.
⚠
Caution: Make sure that the speakers are properly fixed to the wall.
8. BREAK-IN OF YOUR AUDIOVECTOR SPEAKERS
All loudspeakers need to be 'broken in'. Your new Audiovectors will of
course sound very good on first listen, but with time they will improve
dramatically. Expect approx. 50 hours before the full potential of your
new Audiovector speakers is fully realized.
9. QR WALL SWITCH
With rear switch set to "OFF" The QR Wall can be used as a direct
mode speaker. In this mode, it works like a traditional loudspeaker,
with only the bass/midrange and the AMT treble driver working. This
makes the speaker ideal for a rear speaker surround sound for larger
rooms, and as a speaker in its own right.
When you switch to "ON", the two small dome tweeters will be
engaged. They work in antiphase with the AMT, thus creating a diffuse
field. This makes it ideal as rear speaker for surround sound for rooms,
where the seats are quite close to the rear wall. And as a side speaker
for 7.1 systems.
10. ACCESSORIES
All bookshelf models can be mounted either on stands or on wall
brackets. These accessories should be bought in specialized audio
stores, as they will be able to guide you correctly in terms of
placement or mounting.
⚠
Caution: Make sure the speakers are properly set-up or fixed
to bracket and wall.
