RUN-IN PERIOD
Your Gallo loudspeaker utilises proprietary
technologies that only reach their optimum
performance levels after a period of 60 - 80
hours of use. During this run-in process
the loudspeaker driver will loosen-up, the
patented S2 fill material will settle, and
your loudspeakers will develop the acoustic
characteristics that are our signature.
OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
Available from your dealer, or directly from www.galloacoustics.com

WALL MOUNT
The Wall Mount is compatible with all Micro
and A’Diva loudspeakers, and is available in
Black, White and Stainless Steel finishes.
Speaker cable can pass through the mount,
allowing for a neat installation.
IN-CEILING MOUNT
Specific versions of the In-Ceiling Mount are
available for Micro and A’Diva loudspeakers.
The outer ring can be painted to match
either the speaker finish or the ceiling colour,
adding to the appeal - furthermore, the
sound can be tailored to the room by angling
the speakers towards the listening position.
INITIAL SET UP
Please ensure that your amplifier is turned
off before connecting the loudspeakers.
When connecting speaker cables to your
loudspeakers and amplifier, ensure that
correct polarity is observed - red (+) terminal
on the speaker to the red (+) terminal on your
amplifier, black (-) terminal on the speaker to
the black (-) terminal on your amplifier.
A’Diva loudspeakers can be used as a stereo
pair, however for the best performance it’s
advised to also use subwoofer so the full
frequency image can be heard.
Gallo Acoustics subwoofers are specifically
designed to compliment the sound of your
loudspeakers and have built-in crossovers,
allowing full frequency control whilst
protecting the speakers.

STEREO CONFIGURATION

MULTI-CHANNEL
STEREO AND 2.1
When using A’Diva loudspeakers in a
stereo or 2.1 system, employing a suitable
crossover or filter will allow you to get
the best performance from the speakers
whilst protecting them from the lowest
frequencies. If a crossover is not used,
then you must limit the volume or use a low
power amplifier to ensure that permanent
damage to the loudspeakers is avoided.
•Using speaker cables, connect the
speaker outputs on your stereo amplifier
to the high level inputs on the subwoofer.
•Run a second set of speaker cables from
the high level outputs on the subwoofer
to your loudspeakers.
•On the subwoofer adjust the crossover to
around 100hz.
•When music is playing, you can adjust
the level control to match the subwoofer
and loudspeaker volume.
Consult your subwoofer owner’s guide for
more detailed set up instruction.

MULTI-CHANNEL AND HOME CINEMA
When using a multi-channel surround
sound system, first ensure that you are
familiar with your amplifier’s functions, to
ensure that the correct mode and settings
are applied.
•Using speaker cables, connect the
speaker outputs from your AV Amplifier
to the A’Diva loudspeakers, ensuring that
each channel goes to the relevant speaker.
•On the AV Amplifier, select a small
speaker setting, or manually set the
crossover point to approximately 100hz.
Consult both your subwoofer and AV Amplifier
owner’s guides for more detailed set up
instructions.
SUB
PLACEMENT OF SPEAKERS
The placement of loudspeakers within a
room can have a great effect on the sound
of the system - small changes can make
significant improvements.
•When speakers are placed on the
included Isolation Ring, ensure that they
sit near the front edge of the surface
to prevent any diffraction effect, where
the sound bounces off the surface itself.
•The distance from the listening position
to the loudspeakers should not be less
than the distance between the speakers.
•In a multi-channel system, place the
front channels about 1m to 2m apart
depending on the room size and
listening position.
•For the best possible performance, mount
the speakers at ear height - however in
most situations this is not possible,
instead angle the speakers towards the
listening position.
