Setup Recommendation
The Sonic Carrier main unit is designed to be placed on top of a console or wall mounted. For optimum performance,
please observe the setup recommendation below.
1. In order to reproduce an immersive sound experience, the Sonic Carrier main unit radiates sound from the front,
top and sides. Ensuring that these sound waves are not obstructed by objects placed in their path would yield
the best sound experience. Do not place your Sonic Carrier within an enclosed fixture (Cabinet, Shelving unit,
etc.), and make sure nothing is obstructing the sides. The top firing speakers needs to have a clear line of sight
to the ceiling as well.
2. Locate the Sonic Carrier at least 10cm away from the bottom of your TV, to avoid obstructing the top firing speakers
3. For the best listening experience, the listening position should be at least 3ft away from the Sonic Carrier
4. The subwoofer unit produces non-directional sound and thus could be placed at your convenience around the
room. For optimum results, it would be best to locate the subwoofer equidistant to the main unit when measured
from the listening position, and to keep the subwoofer within 3M of the main unit.
5. The subwoofer is equipped with a pair of ports that augments the sound output of the dual subwoofer drivers at
the lowest frequencies. A distance of 10cm between the rear of the subwoofer enclosure and the adjacent wall
has to be maintained in order to avoid turbulence or air chuffing noises.
6. Room acoustics has a major influence on sound quality. The ear is particularly troubled by standing waves and
echoes which can be identified by moving around your room and loudly clapping your hands. Parallel surfaces
such as opposite walls, floor and ceiling encourage and sustain these problems. However, rearranging curtains, thick
carpets, rugs, furniture and bookcases can make a dramatic improvement as the sound waves are partially
absorbed and diffused. As far as possible, the Sonic Carrier main unit should also be setup such as to maintain
symmetry in the room, with equal distance from the main unit to the left and right wall.
Care for your Sonic Carrier
Cabinet
Your Sonic Carrier is finely crafted to last a lifetime from select metal alloys, engineering polymers; and should be treated
as you would furniture with similar materials and finishes. Dust lightly with a soft lint-free cloth, avoiding abrasives and spirit
based cleaners. If necessary, wipe carefully with a cloth slightly dampened with glass cleaner to remove stubborn soil
and marks.
Grilles
The acoustically transparent fabric midrange driver grilles help protect the driver uits, and could be left in place during
listening with negligible acoustic effect. These could be taken off and cleaned using a lint brush. Should you choose to
clean the grilles in place, be careful not to press in and deform the drivers under the grille.
Drivers
Avoid touching the speaker diaphragms, particularly tweeters. The surface of the midrange driver could be dusted very
carefully with a soft dry brush.
General care information
Avoid damp, direct sunlight and temperature extremes. The ventilation and ports should not be impeded by covering the
ventilation openings with items, such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains, etc. No naked flame sources, such as lighted
candles, should be placed on the apparatus

** A seller in the European Union (EU) may be entitled to refuse to repair or replace the goods if it is (i) impossible or (ii) disproportionate (eg. where the costs are unreasonably
high for the seller) to do so, taking into account the value the goods would have had (if there were no lack of conformity), the significance of the lack of conformity and where
an alternative remedy would be completed without significant inconvenience to the consumer. In such cases, the consumer may ask for an appropriate reduction of the price
or have the contract rescinded. The consumer is not entitled to have the contract rescinded if the lack of conformity (or defect or fault) is minor. In which case, the seller is
entitled to turn down a request for rescission of the contract in such a situation. For further details, please refer to Articles 3(3), 3(5) and 3(6) of the EU Directive 1999/44/EC.
