Revel C32 - Manual (Page 12)

Adjustable Spike Footing
When the C32 is shipped, spike footing is
attached to the left pad identified in Figure
2 on the bottom of page 6. For optimal
sound quality, these spikes can be positioned
in the threaded inserts on the bottom of
the cabinet.
Both 1.5-inch (38mm) and 2.25-inch
(57mm) adjustable spikes are included,
allowing for achievement of the proper tilt
angle when the C32 is placed on top of a
video monitor as shown in Figure 6 on the
previous page (middle) or a shelf. For best
results, the C32 should be tilted so the
front of the speaker is facing directly
toward the listener’s head.
To position the spike footing:
1. Place the C32 on its side on a soft towel
or carpeted floor.
2. Select the appropriate set of spikes to
create a tilt angle that aligns the tweeter
with the listener’s head.
• Select the 1.5-inch spikes for a
slight downward tilt as shown on
the left side of Figure 8 (above).
• Select the 2.25-inch spikes for a
greater tilt as shown on the right
side of Figure 8 (above). These
spikes are require for a higher
loudspeaker placement.
