Your Silver RS LCR
The Silver RS LCR is the vital aesthetic and sonic link in any Silver RS home
cinema or multi-channel music system, bringing extra solidity, depth and
realism to the front soundstage, especially with dialogue. It can be used as a
centre speaker or as a traditional left or right speaker when placed upright. Due
to the design of the crossover, if using your RS LCR as a left or right main
speaker, we would recommend orientating it so that the port tube is upper most
on the crossover panel. This ensures that the lower bass unit handles all of the
bass, and the upper bass unit handles the mid-bass. For information on wiring
and system configurations, please refer to pages 13, 14 and 15.
Recognising that the centre is often the hardest working speaker in an A/V
system, it needs to handle every kind of situation within a movie soundtrack,
from a big explosion, to a detailed piece of vocals. With this in mind, the new
Silver RS LCR has been designed with two 6inch C-CAM
®
bass/mid drivers that
hand over to the C-CAM
®
tweeter at 2.9 KHz.
A special crossover network ensures an excellent vertical and horizontal off axis
frequency response, eliminating the need for a 'hot seat' listening position and
integrating smoothly with the rest of the Silver RS range in a home theatre set-
up.
To remove the grille, carefully prise it away from the cabinet sections at a time.
There are two sets of fixing points on this product. One at each end of the
cabinet. Refitting is the opposite of removing.
