Assembly Instructions
Parts included: four leveling feet
four optional spikes with locking nuts
four discs for under spikes
Instructions:
1. Install leveling feet or spikes (see “Using Optional Spikes” section, below):
a. On a soft elevated fl at surface, such as a tabletop with a towel, carefully lay the Triton on its
side with the base of the tower overhanging the edge of the table.
b. First, if using the rubber feet, remove the locking nuts from the spikes and install them onto each foot.
Now screw each foot/spike into the four threaded inserts on the bottom of the base.
c. Carefully return the speaker to the upright position with the help of another person — lift the speaker
upright and lower it to the desired location; if using spikes on a carpeted surface, push down on the
top of the speaker to force the spikes through the carpet to make contact with the fl oor beneath.
d. Once you have positioned the speakers, wiggle them to see if they are stable and level. Adjust
the height of the leveling feet/spikes accordingly for best level and stability, and then tighten
the locking nut.
Using the Optional Spikes and Spike Discs
In addition to the rubber feet, optional spikes have been included should you desire to use them. The use of these
spikes will provide much greater stability when placing your loudspeakers on carpeting. It will also, according to
many experts, result in an overall improvement in sonic performance.
NOTE: Using spikes on wooden or other fl oors which are susceptible to being scratched can cause damage to
the fl oor. Use the included disks under the spikes, as shown in the fi gure below, to protect these types of surfaces.
GoldenEar Technology is specifi cally not responsible for damage which may result from the use of spikes without
the discs.
