Placement of Speakers
All stereo information is heard from the
satellite speakers. The subwoofer
contains no stereo information and the
sound is non-directional.
As a result, the subwoofer does not
necessarily have to be placed in any
particular relationship to the satellites.
Placing the subwoofer on the floor close
to a wall or corner of a room, provides
maximum bass efficiency. The subwoofer
can be placed below tables, behind
couches and on bookshelves, etc.
The satellite speakers are magnetically
shielded and can be placed close the other
computer monitor without distorting the
video image. Best stereo effect is obtained
by placing speakers as far apart as the
cord set allows.
Troubleshooting
When first installing a new system, some
simple instructions may be overlooked
which can cause the unit to be
inoperative. Please make the following
checks:
• Make sure all connecting plugs between
the satellite speakers, subwoofer (if
applicable) and computer are fully
seated.
• Make sure the wall power outlet or
power strip has power. The outlet can be
checked with a lamp or some other
appliance. If the power strip has a
switch, make sure it is turned on.
• It is possible to test the unit by pulling
out the audio cable that is connected to the
computer and connecting it to an
alternate audio source such as a portable
CD player.
• When the unit is operative, vibrations
may lead to the erroneous conclusion that
the speakers are defective. In most
instances, removing the vibrating object
cures the problem.
