Vienna Acoustics Speaker Waltz Grand Series User Manual

WALTZ GRAND  
OWNER´S MANUAL  
Now, as always, speakers form the most important link in a stereo and home theater  
system. Therefore, they should be positioned and connected with care. It is our hope  
that the information contained within this manual will help you in setting up your new  
speakers and provide you with many years of listening pleasure.

CABINETS  
For WALTZ, the same outstanding veneer wrapping technique as for all our other spea-  
kers is used, and the same high grade qua-lity in finish and workmanship is executed.  
Just like all the other Vienna Acoustics speakers, WALTZ features massive and inert  
cabinet construction. Vienna Acoustics cabi-nets are designed with the latest computer  
modeling techniques and use a combination of amorphous materials in order to ensure  
that they are both stiff and well damped. Additionally, our designs feature narrow front  
baffles in order to promote accurate imaging. The combination of precise construction  
using furniture grade finishing techniques and complex internal damping produce de-  
signs capable of accurately rendering music.  
CONNECTIONS  
All connections must be complete and secure, since poor contact between speaker  
cable and input connector can lead to degradation  
of sound quality. It is also a good idea to make a point of regularly cleaning all  
connections in your system since oxidation will build up on a regular basis.

POSITIONING  
Room acoustics and positioning of a speaker within the room have an important effect  
on sound quality.  
WALTZ offers the possibility of beautiful integration in any living room without taking  
away space. This is made possible without compromising sound quality, because  
WALTZ has been designed and developed for placement close to the wall, factoring in  
the influences on the sound of the speaker that this positioning will have.  
The strikingly angled walls of the cabinet provide lots of mounting placement options:  
1. OnWall application:  
8 positions:  
4 x 90 degrees, and in each of the 4 positions is the possibility to angle WALTZ  
towards or away from the listener, or parallel to the wall.  
2. Stand alone application, for placing on top of a TV or in a bookshelf.

MOUNTING  
After placing the wall-mounting anchor into the wall, fix the wall-mounting device

Use the inner, longer hole of the wall-mounting device for vertical positioning.  
Use the outer, round hole just for center position (horizontal positioning).

ATTENTION:  
The teethed washers are very important to prevent loosening of the knurled screws.  
Position the knurled screws halfway into the inserts of the cabinet.  
Now you can put the speaker into the guide ways of the wall-mounting device and  
tighten the knurled screws strongly.  
ATTENTION:  
Please make sure that the teethed washer sticks between the knurled screw and the  
wall-mounting device.  
Please make sure, that the knurled screws securely snap into the right position.

ATTENTION:  
For safety reasons it is necessary to check the knurled screws, which fix the speaker to  
the wall-mounting device, twice a year.  
Keeping the speaker secure depends:  
1. on the force you are able to apply on the screw  
2. on the correct positioning of the teeth washer: between the knurled screw and the  
black wall-mounting device.

ROOM TREATMENT  
Good sounding rooms have a well-balanced acoustic. This does not mean that your  
home should look like a recording studio.  
Commonly found furnishings such as book-shelves, carpeting and furniture all exhibit  
beneficial amounts of absorption and disper-sion. Rooms with little furniture, carpeting  
or other surfaces will demonstrate poor dam-ping and will produce a hard, bright  
sound.  
For WALTZ we recommend to test a few positions, because it can make a huge diffe-  
rence in sound, where the speaker is at-tached to the wall. Some places can produce  
excess or insufficient bass. A difference of only 30 cm can allow for superior perfor-  
mance.  
It is also recommended, that the area around your speakers is uncluttered, allowing  
for unobstructed dispersion of the audio signal.  
MAINTENANCE  
Your speaker cabinets can be cleaned periodically with a soft, damp cloth. It is not  
necessary to wax them. Please keep them out of direct sunlight and heat, since the  
colour of the veneer could fade. Should the bass drivers become dusty, it is safe to use  
a soft brush to clean the woofers.  
Under NO circumstances you should attempt to clean dust from the tweeter. Doing so  
will damage the delicate silk domes.  
Happy Listening!
