Installation

We recommend that your Dorik stands are unpacked, installed and adjusted by an authorised Linn retailer. To get the best from your loudspeakers, it is important that they be positioned and levelled correctly.

Please note, to achieve the very best from your system, some adjustments may be required after positioning, levelling and connecting. See the Fine adjustment section.


As this is an Exakt speaker, the initial setup must be performed with a Local Area Network that has Internet access. Otherwise, Konfig cannot set the speaker channel, Speaker profile and Space Optimisation of these products


Unpacking

IMPORTANT: The Dorik stands are heavy; take great care when moving them.

When unpacking, lifting or moving them, we recommend using two people to avoid personal injury.

  • Do not lay the loudspeakers on their front face as this will damage the loudspeaker.
  • We recommend that you retain the packaging in case you need to transport your loudspeaker(s) at a later date.
  • Take care when unpacking to avoid damage to the cabinets.

Move the (boxed) loudspeaker to an uncluttered, flat area adjacent to its eventual position (this will avoid any excessive moving and carrying of unpacked loudspeakers).

Repacking

IMPORTANT: The Dorik stands are heavy; take great care when moving them.

When packing, lifting or moving them, we recommend using two people to avoid personal injury.

  • Do not lay the loudspeakers on their front face as this will damage the loudspeaker.
  • Take care when repacking to avoid damage to the cabinets.
  • Remove the speaker & stand from the module before repacking
  • Refit the transit plate to the base of the module before repacking Reverse operation of this
  • Check the correct end caps are used for the top and bottom of the stand.

Remove the 4off screws (M6x25) from the Dorik transit plate. Keep these screws to attach the base.

Fit the base to the module and secure using the screw (M6x25) used to fix the transit plate

Rotate the module on to its newly installed stand

IMPORTANT: Take care not to over-tighten the bolts.

Fitting the module to the Speaker

Dorik stand - speakers fit1.png


Any supported speaker can be fitted to any Dorik stand, you use the Konfig software to configure which speaker connects to which module. You will not get any Music from the speakers until this is done.

Remove the 2off transit screws (M4x25) from the Akudorik stand Top-plate


To place the speaker on the module, Dorik speakers can be bolted onto the using the 4off M8x16 screws supplied.

Check the orientation is correct - cooling find to the front of the speaker and the power socket to the rear of the speaker.


IMPORTANT: Take care not to over tighten the bolts.


Positioning

As with any stereo loudspeaker, there are some fundamental principles which should be observed to get the best sound from your loudspeakers.

  • The loudspeakers should be placed at an equal distance from the wall behind the loudspeakers.
  • The speakers should be a similar (not the same) distance from the walls to the outside of each loudspeaker.
  • Any toe-in applied should be the same for each loudspeaker.
  • The loudspeakers should be level with all four spikes in contact with the floor. Use Linn Skeets for hard floors.



For further assistance, try our customer support pages.

Levelling


Screw the spikes into the corners of the stand.
Fit the lock nuts, but do not tighten at this stage.


Image:Akubarik_adjust_spikes.jpg


Cautiously (do not scratch the cabinet), use a spirit level to check if it is sitting level. If it is, gently rock the loudspeaker from front to back, side to side and diagonally to check for any movement. If none is present and the loudspeaker is sitting level, no adjustment to the spikes is necessary.


If the loudspeaker is not level, or moves when you rock it, loosen the appropriate lock nuts using the tool provided and use a screwdriver to turn the spikes to adjust their height. Adjust the spikes to level the speaker, using a spirit level placed on the stand.

Press down firmly on the top of the loudspeaker to ensure it is in close contact with your flooring.

Use the spirit level as before and continue to adjust the spikes as required.


Once the speaker is level and does not rock, use the screwdriver to hold the spike in place and fit and tighten the lock nuts with the spanner provided.


Note: To protect wooden or tiled floors, the spikes can be placed on Linn Skeets, which are available from your Linn retailer.

Connections

Dorik stand to Speakers

Dorik Stand - Akurate212, Akudorik V2.png

Check the cable marked numbers go to the correct socket number highlighted in the diagram. DOUBLE-CHECK the wiring from the Dorik stand to speaker terminals!
If there are any mis-wires or wrong speaker definitions in the Dorik stand, you may blow the speaker drive units, so take care.

If this is the first connection, use the standard Aktiv test scenario.

  1. Switch Off Dorik Stand
  2. Disconnect any Dorik stand to speakers connections
  3. Set to a low-volume value, e.g. 40-50
  4. Do the following tests 5,6,7,8 starting with the Bass connections, then Midrange, then tweeter and finally super tweeter in that order.
  5. Connect respective (Bass or Mid or tweeter or super-tweeter) Dorik stand connection to the Bass connection (Bass or Mid or tweeter or super-tweeter) of the speaker.
  6. Power on the Dorik stand and play some Music. Check that you are only getting (Bass or Mid or tweeter or super-tweeter) audio from that speaker drive unit.
  7. Stop the Music playing.
