SIB - Speaker FOCAL - Free user manual and instructions

USER MANUAL SIB FOCAL

Thank you for purchasing the Focal Sib.

Sib is a multi-purpose loudspeaker capable of delivering a high performance and sound quality whether it be for stereo, home cinema or background music. For best results in a home cinema system, we strongly recommend the use of the matching

Focal Cub active subwoofer. Despite its compact size, the Sib was designed and is built with the same attention to detail as any

Focal product, so we wish you many years of listening pleasure.

In order that you gain maximum performance from this product,

please read carefully through the following instructions and set-up guide below.

We advise you to keep this guide so that you can consult it when needed.

Placement

A - On a shelf

Place the loudspeakers equally spaced either side of the listening position.

It is advisable to place Sib at least 80cm from the floor for a better sound stage.
