In an 8Ώ Amplifier configuration: It is not an excess of amplifier power that can damage your loudspeaker and drivers, but rather a lack of power. In fact, if the volume is too high, the amplifier saturates and generates parasite signals that may destroy the tweeter. The dynamic capacity and definition of Littora loudspeakers are high enough to reveal the strengths and weaknesses of whatever amplifier is connected to them. Your dealer will be able to guide you, depending on your tastes and budget. In a 70V/100V Amplifier configuration: It is recommended to use an amplifier that delivers 20% more power than the system’s total power to avoid a surge or damage to Littora products. Your retailer will be able to guide you depending on your tastes and budget. An amplifier used at full power, combined with a 70V/100V transformer, can deliver dangerous voltages. Always disconnect the power from the amplifier and the transformer before handling, to avoid any risk of electric shock. Follow the recommendations and instructions/configuration of your amplifier in order to correctly connect each Littora 200 loudspeaker. Cable choice Choose good quality cables with a cross-section appropriate for outdoor installation: your dealer will be able to advise you. LOUDSPEAKER POSITIONING

The loudspeakers should be arranged, evenly spaced, in a line or arc in order to cover the listening area as best as possible. The space between two loudspeakers will be at least 6.5ft (2m) for a listening station measuring between 6.5ft - 19.6ft (2-6m) (fig.14). However, it is possible to vary these distances to find an ideal compromise depending on the space layout. OD SUB 12 To supply the listening area as best as possible, place the OD SUB 12 as close as possible to the centre of the system, avoiding any pools (fountains, swimming pools, water sources, etc.). The optimal listening zone is a radius of 16.6ft (6m) around the sub. For more bass, place it closer to a wall (fig.15). INSTALLATION Before installing the loudspeakers, ensure that the intended positions on the ceiling/wall/ground are not obstructed by the passage of air vents, for example, or any cables that may interfere with the installation. These products are IP55 certified for increased water and dust-resistance. To protect their service life do not expose them to constantly running water and never immerse them in water. After heavy rainfall, we recommend waiting a few hours before turning them on again; allowing them to dry-out naturally will restore nominal audio functioning. OD STONE 8 The design of the OD STONE 8 allows it to be placed on any surface without mounting. It can either be placed or fixed using its attachment loop located on the base.EN

LITTORA 200 User manual WALL-MOUNTING OD SAT 5 (fig.7) Before hanging the products, make sure the ceiling/walls are strong, in perfect condition, and are suitable to remain so long- term. Use a professional to fix the wall brackets (E) and only use screws and dowels suitable for the materials. To mount the loudspeakers, securely fasten the bracket using screws suitable for the materials. For a more discreet installation, thread the cable through the hole in the middle of the mounting bracket and the notch on the base (fig. 16). Make sure to leave around

3/4 " (30cm) of cable to allow you to connect and position the loudspeaker easily afterwards. Next, direct the loudspeaker towards the listening area and tighten the joints firmly with the locking screws (fig. 8). GROUND MOUNTING OD SAT 5 (fig.9) Mounting in the ground is only possible in soil or sand. They cannot be mounted in rigid metal, wood or concrete floors. Take the stake (F) provided and plant it using your hand around 4-5cm into the ground. Then drive the stake in as far as it will go using a suitable tool. For a more discreet installation, thread the cable through the hole in the middle and the opening on the bottom of the stake. Make sure to leave around 11 3/4 " (30cm) of cable to allow you to connect and position the loudspeaker easily afterwards. The stake can be cut down for installations in shallow ground. To help cut it, there are notches on the stake at 4" and 7 7/8 " (10 and 20cm). Attention: cutting the stake will create sharp edges which could cause injury. Next, direct the loudspeaker towards the listening area and tighten the joints firmly with the locking screws (fig. 8). OD SUB 12 To supply the listening area as best as possible, place the OD SUB 12 as close as possible to the centre of the system, avoiding any pools (fountains, swimming pools, water sources, etc.). For more bass, move the OD SUB 12 nearer a wall (fig. 15). Prepare the space for the sub by digging a hole measuring 13x34 5/8 x15" (330x880x380mm) (fig.10). Positioning (fig.10 and 11): To get the most out of the sub, make sure there is a minimum 2 3/4 " (7cm) between the ground and the part above the ground. Adjust the height of the vent to suit you by twisting it whilst positioned in its location. Then cover the body with around 3/4" (2cm) of soil.

Warning: This product is only intended for use with the body underground.

CONNECTIONS OD STONE 8 With its 5-strand cable, the OD STONE 8 adapts perfectly to 70/100V (fig.5) or 8Ω (fig.4) amplification. To do this, make the appropriate connections using the waterproof cable connectors provided (B). To avoid any signal disturbance, ensure that any strands that are not used are electrically insulated using suitable equipment. OD SAT 5 The power of the OD SAT 5 is adjusted using the two-position notched selector on the back. To access it, remove the screw on the back of the satellite (fig.6). Each position selects two values. It is the type of amplifier connected to the speaker that determines the power emitted by the speaker.

Θ Do not use This position requires the use of a 70V amplifier only. Using a 100V amplifier may damage the loudspeaker and the amplifier. OFF Default position No link is active. OD SUB 12 With its 5-strand cable, the OD SUB 12 adapts perfectly to 70/100V (fig.5) or 8Ω (fig.12) amplification. To do this, make the appropriate connections using the waterproof cable connectors provided (B). To avoid any signal disturbance, ensure that any strands that are not used are electrically insulated using suitable equipment. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS Running-in period The speaker drivers used in the Littora range of loudspeakers are complex mechanical assemblies which need a running-in period to operate at their best and to become acclimatised to the temperature and humidity of your environment. This run- ning-in period varies depending on the conditions in question and may take several weeks. To reduce this time, we recom- mend operating your loudspeakers for about 20 consecutive hours at a moderate volume. Once the loudspeakers' character- istics have totally stabilised, you will be able to enjoy your Littora loudspeakers’ performance to the full. Conditions of warranty All Focal loudspeakers are covered by warranty drawn up by the official Focal distributor in your country. Your distributor can provide all details concerning the conditions of warranty. Warranty cover extends at least to that granted by the legal warranty in force in the country where the original purchase invoice was issued.
