Setup

Speaker Placement

For optimal sound quality, position the speakers on a stable, flat surface such as a bookshelf or speaker stand. Ensure there is adequate space around the speakers for proper ventilation. For a stereo setup, place the speakers equidistant from your listening position, forming an equilateral triangle.

This image illustrates the compact bookshelf design of the GEYGUY G521-1 speaker, showing its dimensions: approximately 7.75 inches (197mm) in height, 7.08 inches (180mm) in width, and 12.00 inches (305mm) in depth. Each speaker weighs 7.49 pounds (3.4 kg), making them suitable for various placements.

This diagram demonstrates the recommended speaker placement for an optimal stereo listening experience. The speakers (L and R) should be positioned approximately 6.5 feet (2 meters) from the listener, forming an equilateral triangle with the listening position. An amplifier and TV are shown as central components.

Connecting Your Speakers

The G521-1 are passive speakers and require an external amplifier or receiver to function. Ensure your amplifier is turned off before making any connections.

Wiring Connections

Connect the speaker wires from your amplifier's speaker outputs to the corresponding terminals on the back of each G521-1 speaker. Match the positive (+) terminal on the speaker to the positive (+) terminal on the amplifier, and the negative (-) terminal on the speaker to the negative (-) terminal on the amplifier. Incorrect polarity can result in poor sound quality.

Operating Instructions

Basic Operation

Once connected to an amplifier, turn on your amplifier and select the appropriate input source. Adjust the volume on your amplifier to your desired listening level. The G521-1 speakers are designed to reproduce a wide frequency range, providing clear and detailed audio.

Maintenance

Cleaning and Care

To maintain the appearance and performance of your G521-1 speakers, follow these guidelines:

• Cleaning the Cabinet: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the speaker cabinets. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, waxes, or solvents as they may damage the finish.
• Cleaning the Grilles: If the grilles become dusty, gently vacuum them with a soft brush attachment or wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Ensure they are completely dry before reattaching.
• Placement: Avoid placing speakers in direct sunlight or near heat sources, which can cause discoloration or damage to the cabinet.
• Anti-slip Pads: The speakers are equipped with anti-slip pads on the bottom to prevent movement and reduce vibrations. Ensure these pads are clean and intact for optimal stability.

This image highlights the anti-slip pad located on the top surface of the GEYGUY G521-1 speaker. These pads are designed to provide stability and reduce unwanted vibrations when the speaker is placed on a surface.

Troubleshooting

No Sound

• Ensure the amplifier is powered on and the correct input source is selected.
• Check all speaker wire connections at both the amplifier and the speakers. Ensure positive (+) and negative (-) terminals are correctly matched and wires are securely connected.
• Verify that the volume on your amplifier is turned up and not muted.
• Test with another audio source or amplifier if possible to isolate the issue.

Distorted Sound

• Reduce the volume level on your amplifier. Overdriving the speakers can cause distortion.
• Check speaker wire connections for any loose strands or short circuits.
• Ensure the amplifier's impedance rating matches the speaker's impedance (4 Ohms for G521-1).

Uneven Sound from Speakers

• Check the balance settings on your amplifier.
• Ensure both speakers are connected with correct polarity.
• Verify speaker placement and ensure no obstructions are blocking sound from one speaker.
