5. Enstalasyon
Proper setup is crucial for optimal sound quality and speaker longevity. These speakers are passive and require an external amplifier.
5.1 Plasman
- Place the speakers on a stable, flat surface at ear level when seated.
- For stereo imaging, position the speakers equidistant from your listening position and spaced appropriately apart.
- Avoid placing speakers directly against a wall if possible, especially due to the rear bass-reflex port, to prevent excessive bass resonance. A distance of 10-30 cm from the wall is often ideal.
5.2 Konekte ak yon Amplifier
The Fenton SHFB65 speakers connect to your amplifier using speaker wire. Ensure your ampLifter la etenn anvan ou fè nenpòt koneksyon.
- Prepare fil oratè a: Strip approximately 1-2 cm of insulation from both ends of your speaker wire. Twist the exposed strands tightly to prevent stray wires.
- Konekte ak Oratè yo: Unscrew the gold-plated terminals on the back of each SHFB65 speaker. Insert the exposed speaker wire into the hole, ensuring that the positive (+) wire (often marked with red or a stripe) connects to the red terminal and the negative (-) wire (often marked with black or plain) connects to the black terminal. Tighten the terminals securely.
- Konekte ak Amplifier: Connect the other end of the speaker wire to the corresponding speaker output terminals on your amplifier. Again, ensure positive (+) connects to positive (+) and negative (-) connects to negative (-). Maintain consistent polarity for both speakers.

Enpòtan: Incorrect polarity (e.g., positive to negative) will result in poor sound quality, particularly weak bass. Always double-check your connections.
6. Operasyon Enstriksyon
Yon fwa oratè yo byen konekte ak ou amplifier:
- Asire w ke tout koneksyon an sekirite.
