[MOUNTING TO FLAT PANEL MOUNTING BRACKETS]

There are additional mounting inserts on the rear of the speaker cabinet to facilitate at panel mounts (see note on Figure 1). There are six 
threaded inserts provided that coincide with the requirements of most manufacturers’ mounts. Please check with your Phase Technology 
dealer for appropriate mounts and compatibility.

[CARING FOR YOUR PHASE TECHNOLOGY SPEAKER]

All Phase Technology speakers are finished with a high degree of craftsmanship in either hand polished paint or vinyl laminates. We recommend 
using a lint-free rag with a small amount of glass cleaner to maintain the long-lasting beauty of the finish. Avoid products containing silicones, 
oils, oil derivatives, or solvents. Enclosures finished in vinyl laminates may be cleaned with a damp cloth as necessary.

[MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE]

Because of Phase Technology’s uncompromising quality control programs, it’s unlikely that your speakers will ever need service if connected 
and used as outlined in this Owners’ Manual. In the unlikely event that a problem does occur, please contact your Phase Technology dealer. 
Your dealer has the necessary factory-authorized parts and trained technicians to quickly restore your speaker to its original performance 
specifications.

[TROUBLESHOOTING]

 

NO SOUND

1. 

Verify that all components are plugged in and turned on.

2. 

Check all speaker wires and cables for loose connections.

3. 

Check to see if you have selected the proper source on your amplifier.

 

VOICES DO NOT APPEAR TO COME FROM BETWEEN THE SPEAKERS / BASS RESPONSE IS WEAK

1. 

Verify that all speaker connections from the amplifier to the speakers are running PLUS+ to PLUS+ and MINUS- to MINUS-. 

2. 

Check to see if there are any furnishings or plants that may be blocking the output of a speaker.  

 

SOUND, BUT NO BASS (MOST LIKELY IN SYSTEMS WITH A SUBWOOFER)

1. 

Verify that the subwoofer is plugged into an AC outlet and power is turned on.

2. 

Check that the speaker wire / cable going from the amplifier/receiver to the subwoofer is securely fastened.

3. 

Check the volume control of the subwoofer.

4. 

Refer to your amplifier/receiver manual to make sure you have adjusted its bass output properly.

 

MUDDY OR BOOMY BASS

1. 

Check the volume control for the subwoofer.  Excess volume can cause speakers to sound distorted and unnatural.

2. 

Try adjusting the crossover control on the subwoofer or the subwoofer setup on your receiver to a slightly lower frequency (example: 

STEP 6

Since the TEATRO

®

 soundbar speakers perform as the front three 

speakers in a home theater system they are to be used and set 
up as you would any normal 5.1 to 7.2 surround sound system 
for balance and level adjustments. For the best performance, the 
amplifier should be set to the small speaker mode for the left/
center/right front speakers. The subwoofer setting should be 
set to 80 Hz. We recommend the use of our Phase Technology 
subwoofers and surround speakers to complement your TEATRO

®

 

Soundbar.

STEP 7

The EVT

 switch (Fig. 4), located on the front of the speaker 

under the grille, activates Phase Technology’s Enhanced Voice 
Technology feature. This feature is designed to improve the clarity 
of the voice or dialogue from the center channel speakers in the 
system. Flipping the switch to the up position engages the circuit 
and down turns it off.
