HOME THEATER SETUP: (4 MB2000 Satellites, 1 MB3000 Center)
All Microburst Satellite Speakers are identical. You may choose any one for front or
rear positions.
•
Connect your left & right main speakers to your receiver's left & right main (front
speaker) outputs. Connect your left & right surround speakers to your receiver’s
left & right surround (rear speaker) outputs.
•
Connect your center speaker to your receiver’s center channel speaker output.
VERY IMPORTANT!
Be sure your receiver’s center, main & surround channel modes are all set to SMALL
(NORMAL). This will allow for the greatest bass impact from your system.
RECOMMENDED MAIN AND CENTER SPEAKER PLACEMENT:
•
The best distance between the main speakers is dependent upon room
conditions, size, and the proximity of the listening area to the speakers; usually 6-
12 feet is appropriate. A bit of experimentation is in order, but smaller rooms will
better tolerate closer spacing between the speakers.
•
We recommend you place your center speaker horizontally on top of (or just
below) your TV.
RECOMMENDED SURROUND SPEAKER PLACEMENT:
Behind you, equally spaced to your left and right, facing towards the front of the room.
One general rule of thumb: try to position speakers so that the tweeter's level is fairly
close to your ear level in your normal listening position. High frequencies are much
more directional than lows so it is best that your ears are within a fairly direct path to
the tweeter's output.
After completing all connections, turn the system on, then GRADUALLY increase the
volume level. If there is no sound, distorted sound, or if the amplifier shuts itself down
after a few seconds, IMMEDIATELY TURN THE VOLUME DOWN and turn the
system off. Then re-check your wiring for accuracy and for possible shorts at the
connecting terminals (adjacent bare wires touching each other). When everything
sounds fine, keep the volume reasonably low while you familiarize yourself with your
system's various controls and operations modes.
