OWNER´S MANUAL
Now, as always, speakers form the most
important link in a stereo and home theater
system. There-fore, 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 so that they
may provide you with many years of listening
pleasure.
Your Vienna Acoustics Team
ATTENTION:
Please read these instructions carefully and com-
pletely, since they are very important to ensure
the best performance and the long-term
problem-free operation.
Make sure you have received with BERG or
WEBERN your choice of the wall-mounting
bracket or stand for free-standing positioning,
which are both packed separately. A spike stand
for free-standing positioning is included with
SCHÖNBERG.
ROOM TREATMENT
Good sounding rooms have a well-balanced
acoustic. This does not mean that your home
needs to look like a recording studio.
Commonly found furnishings such as
bookshelves, carpeting and furniture all exhibit
beneficial amounts of absorption and dispersion.
Rooms with little furniture, carpeting or other
surfaces will demonstrate poor damping and will
produce a hard, bright sound.
For the Aluminium Line, as with any loudspeaker,
we recommend trying different positions for the
speakers, as subtle changes in placement can
make a significant difference in sound. For
example, changes in the angle of a speaker
toward the listening position can produce
significant improve-ments in performance.
And while the Aluminium Line has been designed
to perform at its best in close proximity to the
wall behind the speakers, when not using the wall
mounting option, experimenting with small
changes in this distance to the back wall can
result in improved bass performance.
In general, you should start with the tweeters
positioned to the inside, toward each other.
However, experimentation with the tweeters
posi-tioned on the outside may prove beneficial
for im-proved performance in some installations.
It is also recommended, that the area around
your speakers remain uncluttered, allowing for
unob-structed dispersion of the audio signal.
Please give the speakers around 30 hours of
initial playing time prior to critical listening. As
with any loudspeaker, playing time is required to
allow both mechanical and electrical devices in
the loudspeaker to break-in.
POSITIONING SCHÖNBERG
Room acoustics and positioning of a speaker
within the room have an important effect on
sound quality.
SCHÖNBERG features an adjustable spike stand
for perfect decoupling and stability. It was
developed for optimum sonic results at a
distance of 0 –40 cm (0 –15 inches) from the
wall.
POSITIONING WEBERN & BERG
A. On wall application:
Wall mounting is allowed by an ingenious
aluminium
mounting device, unrivalled in its ability to
provide the best environment for superior sound
quality.
Three positions are afforded by this bracket,
enabling the speaker to be angled toward the
listening positioning for best performance.
The bolts that fix the angled position presses the
cabinet against a rubber decoupling device,
there-fore damping and silencing the interface
point between wall and speaker.
This prevents detrimental resonance from being
transferred between wall and speaker.
Additionally, this wall-mounting device allows not
only for vertical but also for horizontal
positioning, allowing WEBERN & BERG to be used
as a center speaker with a plasma-television or
under a screen used with a video projector.
B. Stand alone application:
Alternatively, for those who do not wish to mount
the speaker to the wall, an ultra-rigid aluminium
stand is offered, which was developed for
optimum sound when place on a surface such as
a bookshelf or desktop. The bottom of the stand
is coated with a layer of isolation material
designed to both protect the surface on which the
speaker is placed and to provide a superior
interface between speaker and mounting surface
for improved performance. The stand serves
both tweeter left and tweeter right positions.

MOUNTING WEBERN & BERG
A. On wall application:
To prepare the speakers for wall mounting:
1. Please put on the enclosed gloves to avoid
fingerprints.
2. Remove the aluminium inlays on the top and
bottom of the speakers. As they are attached
with magnets, they simply lift off.
3. Put the matching wall-mounting inlay on each
speaker, so that the two holes for the two bolt
sockets line up.
ATTENTION:
The two inlays are slightly different for use on
each of the respective sides. In order to mount
the inlays correctly the three conical milled points
must be visible and the mounting bolts are able
to be inserted.
4. Now attach the appropriate inlay with the two
bolts, by using the hexagon-tool (Allen wrench/
key).
5. Now turn the speaker over and execute the
same procedure.
To attach the wall-mounting device to the wall:
ATTENTION:
For best performance, it is recommended that
the speakers be angled toward the listening
position. This means that special attention must
be paid when mounting the brackets.
If you have chosen to mount a pair of speakers
with the tweeters on the inside, mount the
bracket with the thin flat profile to the inside. If
mounting a pair of speakers with the tweeters on
the outside, mount the bracket with the thin flat
profile to the outside.
If you have chosen to use a speaker as a center
channel, two position options are allowed, either
angled up or down. To angle up, the thin flat
profile of the bracket should face up. To angle
down, the thin flat profile of the bracket should
face down.
1. First mark the position on the wall using the
holes of the wall-mounting bracket as a guide.
2. After drilling the holes, put the included
anchors (metal for sheetrock or other wall board,
or plastic for plaster or concrete wall construction
material) into the wall.
3. Now fix the wall-mounting bracket to the wall,
by using the provided screws.
To attach the speaker to the wall-mounting
device:
ATTENTION:
As both WEBERN or BERG are symmetrical in
driver orientation (having not top or bottom)
selecting an orientation position for the speakers
so that the tweeters face in or out, as well as up
or down, can be done to suit the nature of each
installation. It is recommended that
experimentation take place to determine which
orientation of the tweeters results in optimal
performance.
1. Please put on the enclosed gloves to avoid
fingerprints.
2. Insert the lower conical tipped bolt inside the
wall-mounting bracket completely with the hexa-
gonal tool (Allen wrench/key). [For center posi-
tioning simply start with whichever side is most
convenient.]
ATTENTION:
The accessories box includes two plastic sockets,
which you can put on the conical point of the
bolts to avoid scratching the inlays. Once the
preferred position is found, they can be
removed.
3. After you have chosen a position, place the
speaker in away that the lower bolt fits into the
chosen conically milled point on the cabinet inlay.
4. Press the speaker against the rubber-pad
