«Music.That‘s really the only important issue

when it comes to loudspeakers...»

In our view, the superior loudspeaker is the one that does not interfere. One that

adds no sound of its own.That accurately and naturally conveys what was played

in the concert or recording studio. Since 1986 we have been working to perfect

this ideal – with a pioneering spirit, inventiveness and exacting craftsmanship. You

will now be able to hear for yourself how far we have succeeded.

By purchasing a loudspeaker from PIEGA you have expressed your trust in our

company, for which we thank you very much. At the same time we assure you

that you have purchased a product that is based on twenty years of R & D, and

which in terms of its design represents the state of the art. We are sure that you

will gain much listening enjoyment from your new Piega loudspeaker products.

Although using the loudspeakers is very straightforward, we recommend that

you read the contents of this user manual carefully. It will explain how to properly

connect up your new PIEGA loudspeaker products and install them for optimum

results. It also provides you with some useful information that will increase your

understanding of loudspeakers. But don’t worry. Even apparently complicated

details are explained very simply. On the last page of these instructions you will

ﬁnd our warranty conditions. Please also read these carefully just in case.

We wish you an enjoyable read and above all much listening enjoyment with your

new PIEGA loudspeakers...!

Precautions

Please read this user manual carefully and pay special attention to the following precautions and warnings.

Safety Precautions:

Ensure without fail that your new PIEGA loudspeak-

ers are mounted, positioned and connected exactly

according to these instructions.

PIEGA loudspeakers were only designed for use in

dry residential environments within a temperature

range of 10...40°C.

The high quality loudspeaker chassis of PIEGA loud-

speakers contain exceptionally strong magnets with

magnetic ﬁelds that may impair the operation of

other devices if the loudspeakers are not handled

properly.

Ensure that watches or other metallic objects are not

placed close to the loudspeakers.The strong mag-

netic ﬁelds may pull these into the diaphragms and

destroy them.

Keep items such as credit cards, electronic data stor-

age media and similar objects away from the loud-

speakers.The magnetic ﬁeld may cause irrecoverable

loss of data.

Warnung:

Ensure, in particular with children, that hands are not

placed inside the bass tube openings (sharp edges

> risk of injury) and that objects are not inserted into

these openings.

loudspeakers reach your living room safely and undamaged. In order to avoid any damage when unpacking

scratching the aluminum surface.

Open the carton as shown in the ﬁgure, remove the

metal brackets on the carton carefully and lift out the

tive wrapping by carefully pulling it up over the

loudspeakers.

Uses

The PIEGA Loudspeaker Series comprises ﬂoor-standing, satellite and center loudspeakers. Some series

include all three loudspeaker types. All loudspeakers of the same series are based on the same technology,

either dome tweeter or PIEGA ribbon tweeter. All loudspeakers of the same technology can always be com-

bined and arranged into a cohesive home cinema system and also ideal for stereo systems, sound systems in

bars and restaurants, ﬁtness centers etc. We recommend….

PIEGA User Manual

Perfect sound quality depends on the correct positioning and alignment of the loudspeakers. For stereo

operation, the best results are achieved using the stereo triangle layout. In multi-channel systems, the front,

center and rear speakers should be positioned as equidistantly as possible and aligned to the point of listening

and time delay should be adjusted in the setup of the AV-receiver.

Positioning

Stereo operation (Stereo Triangle)

The distances between the loudspeakers

and the point of listening form an isosce-

les triangle (Ratio 1 : 1.5).

Note: For best results align the tweeter at ear level.

Recommended wall distance approx. 10 - 50 cm,

depending on the model

PIEGA User Manual

On-Wall Installation

You can use the wall bracket (available as an accessory) to mount the satellite loudspeakers either on the wall

or ceiling and thus use it as a rear or side speaker for both diffused and direct sound. The brackets are also

used when installing the loudspeakers for a room sound system. A special bracket is also available (as an ac-

cessory) for mounting the center loudspeakers on walls.

Note: For mounting the wall brackets consult a specialist such as your authorized

PIEGA dealer if necessary.

- Remove the Allen screw on the rear of the

loudspeaker

- Fasten the base plate (1) to the wall with

the screws (4)

- Assemble the ﬁxing ring (2) and the ball joint

and ﬁt on the loudspeaker

- Fasten the ball joint/ﬁxing ring onto the base

plate (1) with the screws (5)

- Position the loudspeaker and fasten with

the screws (5)

- Fasten the bracket to the wall

- Slightly unscrew the hexagon screws on the

loudspeaker

- Fit the center loudspeaker on the wall bracket

- Re-tighten the hexagon screws

Connecting the Loudspeakers

The terminal for single wiring applications is provided at the back of the loudspeaker. This is used for connect-

ing standard loudspeaker cables with banana plugs or with a lead. Ideally, PIEGA loudspeakers should be con-

nected with the CableONE or CableTHREE loudspeaker cable which is available as an accessory.

Connection:

Ensure that the electronic components are switched

off before making the connection.

PIEGA loudspeakers must only be connected to elec-

tronic components with the ampliﬁer outputs recom-

mended by PIEGA. Observe the speciﬁcations of the

ampliﬁer manufacturer. Contact your dealer if you are

unsure whether the connection is permissible.

The loudspeakers have an impedance of 4 Ohms and

can therefore be connected to any standard ampliﬁer.

Contact your specialist dealer concerning this.

Connect the PIEGA loudspeaker to your ampliﬁer or

receiver using suitable cables as shown in the ﬁgure.

Ideally, use the CableONE or CableTHREE loudspeak-

er cable (optional) with banana plugs or standard

loudspeaker cables with a lead.

Important:

Ensure the poles are connected correctly! A com-

pletely diffuse sound with a weak bass will be pro-

duced if the plus and minus poles are incorrectly con-

nected.

Active variant:

For PIEGA loudspeakers with the Active module op-

tion, please contact your retailer.

Pass the wires fully through the opening

Fully insert the banana plugs up to the stop

PIEGA User Manual

Running in the Loudspeakers

As a loudspeaker is basically a mechanical transducer consisting of several different components, the individ-

ual elements must be run in during the initial weeks. This will ensure that the sound quality potential of your

loudspeakers is fully utilized. You will deﬁnitely notice the resulting improvement in sound.

Recommendations:

In the ﬁrst days and weeks listen only at normal

volume.

Avoid very high volume levels during initial phase.

Listen to a wide range of programme material.

Limit range:

The recommended ampliﬁer output is, depending on

the model, 20 – 250 Watt. It must be ensured that

the volume must only be turned up far enough for

the ear to register an overload.

If the loudspeaker chassis become damaged after a

long period of overload, this can be detected beyond

any doubt by PIEGA service technicians. In these

cases, PIEGA is not liable for any warranty claims.

Note:

Excessively loud music can damage your health.

Listen to music at an acceptable volume level for the

sake of your health.
