INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the B&W CDM™7NT

speakers.

Founded in 1966, B&W has always striven for

perfect sound reproduction in its products. To this

end, the company has invested heavily in

research and development in order to maintain

its position at the forefront of acoustic design.

Through the years, B&W has introduced many

advanced features and techniques. Although

many of these have been developed initially for

the more expensive models, our “ ”waterfall

design policy has seen them incorporated,

wherever possible, elsewhere in the product

range.

Features to be found in the CDM™NT Series

include cabinets with contoured edges to reduce

sound diffraction (the radiation of sound waves

from sharp edges that interfere with and blur the

direct sound from the drive units). An integral

part of the CDM range is the use of Kevlar™ ®

cone bass/midrange drive units for lowest

coloration and maximum definition. The treble

units incorporate Nautilus tube technology,™

which eliminates resonances behind the dome

diaphragm.

It is important to spend time setting up the

speakers, as care spent on the installation

process will reap the reward of many hours of

listening pleasure. Reading this manual fully will

help you obtain the best from your audio system.

B&W distributes to over 65 countries worldwide

and maintains a network of dedicated

distributors who will be able to help should you

have any problems your dealer cannot resolve.

Their mailing addresses can be found on the

web site or by calling B&W direct.

UNPACKING

(Figure 1)

• Fold the top carton flaps right back and invert

the carton and contents.

• Lift the carton clear of the contents.

• Remove the inner packing from the product.

• We suggest you retain the packing for future

use.

Check in the carton for:

• 4 Spike feet with lock nuts

• 2 Foam bungs

• 1 International warranty booklet

CONNECTIONS

(Figure 2 & 3)

All connections should be made with the

equipment switched off.

There are 2 pairs of terminals at the back of the

speaker which permit bi-wiring if desired. On

delivery, the separate pairs are connected

together with high-quality links for use with a

single 2-core cable. For single cable connection,

leave the links in place and use either pair of

terminals on the speaker.

Ensure the positive terminal on the speaker

(marked + and coloured red) is connected to the

positive output terminal of the amplifier and

negative (marked – and coloured black) to

negative. Incorrect connection can result in poor

imaging and loss of bass.

To bi-wire, remove the links by loosening the

terminal caps and use a separate 2-core cable

from the amplifier to each pair of terminals. This

can improve the resolution of low-frequency

detail. Observe the correct polarity as before.

When bi-wiring, incorrect connection can also

impair the frequency response.

The terminals accept bare wire. Always make

sure terminals are screwed down tight as

otherwise they may rattle.

Ask your dealer for advice when choosing

cable. Keep the total impedance below the

maximum recommended in specification and use

a low inductance cable to avoid attenuation of

the highest frequencies.

POSITIONING

(Figure 4)

Some experimentation with the position of the

speakers is well worthwhile to optimise the

interaction between them and the listening room.

However, as an initial guide:

• Do not fit the spike feet until you have found

the best position for the speakers.

• Place the speakers and the centre of the

listening area approximately at the corners of

an equilateral triangle.

• Keep the speakers at least 1.5m (5ft) apart to

maintain left-right stereo separation.

• Keep the speaker baffles at least 0.5m (20in)

clear of walls. Having the speakers too close

to walls increases the level of bass relative to

midrange and may give a boomy quality to

the sound.

Stray Magnetic Fields

The speaker drive units create stray magnetic

fields that extend beyond the boundaries of the

cabinet. We recommend you keep magnetically

sensitive articles (television and computer

screens, computer discs, audio and video tapes,

swipe cards and the like) at least 0.5m from the

speaker.

FINE TUNING

Before fine tuning, make sure that all the

connections in the installation are correct and

secure.

If the level bass is uneven with frequency it is

usually due to the excitation of resonance modes

in the room. Even small changes in the position

of the speakers or the listeners can have a

profound effect on how these resonances affect

the sound. Try mounting the speakers along a

different wall. Even large pieces of furniture can

have an effect.

Moving the speakers further from the walls will

reduce the general level of bass. Space behind

the speakers also helps to create an impression

of depth. Conversely, moving the speakers closer

to the walls will increase the level of bass.

If you want to reduce the bass level without

moving the speakers further from the wall, fit the

foam bungs in the port tubes. (Figure 6)

If the central image is poor, try moving the

speakers closer together or toeing them in so

they point just in front of the listeners. (Figure 5)

If the sound is too harsh, increase the amount of

soft furnishings in the room (for example us

heavier curtains), or reduce it if the sound is dull

and lifeless.

Test for flutter echoes by clapping your hands

and listening for rapid repetitions. Reduce them

by the use of irregular shaped surfaces such as

bookshelves and large pieces of furniture.

Ensure the speakers stand firmly on the floor.

Whenever possible fit the spike feet supplied

after you have optimised the positioning. These

are designed to pierce through carpets to the

floor surface. Initially, screw the lock nuts fully

onto the spikes and screw the spikes fully into

the threaded inserts in the base of the cabinet. If

the cabinet rocks, unscrew the two spikes that do

not touch the floor equally until the cabinet sits

firmly on the floor, and lock the nuts against the

cabinet. If there is no carpet and you wish to

avoid scratching the floor surface, use a

protective disc between the spike and the floor.

RUNNING-IN PERIOD

The performance of the speaker will change

subtly during the initial listening period. If the

speaker has been stored in a cold environment,

the damping compounds and suspension

materials of the drive units will take some time to

recover their correct mechanical properties. The

drive unit suspensions will also loosen up during

the first hours of use. The time taken for the

speaker to achieve its intended performance will

vary depending on previous storage conditions

and how it is used. As a guide, allow up to a

week for the temperature effects to stabilise and

15 hours of average use for the mechanical

parts to attain their intended design

characteristics.

AFTERCARE

The cabinet surface usually only requires dusting.

If you wish to use an aerosol cleaner, remove the

grille first buy gently pulling it away from the

cabinet. Spray onto the cleaning cloth, not

directly onto the cabinet. The grille fabric may

be cleaned with a normal clothes brush whilst

the grille is detached from the cabinet.

Avoid touching the drive units, especially the

tweeter, as damage may result.
