We discuss a low energy e+e− collider for production of the not yet observed (μ+μ−) bound system (dimuonium). Collider with large crossing angle for e+e− beams intersection produces dimuonium with non-zero momentum; therefore, its decay point is shifted from the beam collision area providing effective suppression of the elastic e+e− scattering background. The experimental constraints define subsequent collider specifications. We show preliminary layout of the accelerator and obtained main parameters. High luminosity in chosen beam energy range allows to study π± and η-mesons.
