INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing a Martin Audio Cinema Series, Screen Channel
system. As film industry technology produces increasingly wide-ranging
digital sound tracks, accommodating ever more complex special effects,
traditional 2-way sound reinforcement systems are hard pushed to translate
the full movie experience to audiences in the auditorium.  

Martin’s entry to cinema sound has been nothing short of revolutionary.
The adaptation of new 3-way technology by Martin’s design team, honed to
meet the real demands of cinema installation today, has resulted in the
dedicated Martin Audio Cinema Series.  The core products, Screen 2, 4, 5
and Screen Sub 1 loudspeakers are built to accommodate the various
digital formats of modern film, providing the essentials of low distortion,
wide bandwidth and uniform coverage.
Martin Audio Surrounds, including the Effect 5, 3 and 3R complete the
picture.

Your screen channel system is shipped in two cartons. One carton
containing the low frequency section and the second containing the 
mid/high section, bracket and hardware.
