Using With a Multichannel Surround Processor
When using a subwoofer:
Select the SMALL setting on your receiver or processor for your main and center channels.
This routes all bass information (typically below 100Hz) to your subwoofer.
When not using a subwoofer:
Select the LARGE setting on your receiver or processor for your main speakers. This routes
all bass information (typically below 100Hz) to your main speakers. Otherwise, bass
information will be lost.
Matching the sound levels of each speaker:
Your home theater system most likely includes a test signal that simplifies level matching.
Refer to the instructions provided with these electronics.
HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR SPEAKERS
Use a soft terry cloth towel slightly dampened with water, glass cleaner, or a diluted mild
detergent. The towel should be just damp enough to wipe the surface clean without
leaving a trail of moisture.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or any cleaner containing chemicals harsher than those
found in glass cleaner.
LISTENING LEVELS AND POWER HANDLING
The power recommendation for the system assumes you will operate the amplifier in a way
that will not produce distortion. All speakers can be damaged by even a modest amplifier
if it is producing distortion. If you hear a gritty noise or other signs of strain, turn down
the volume. Prolonged or repeated operation of your speakers with a distorted signal can
cause damage that is not covered by the warranty. It is especially important that you do
not overdrive the bass capability of smaller speakers. Watch for noises, such as pops,
caused by the music’s bass line. Use of the loudness control and/or full bass boost at
louder volumes is likely to overdrive the woofer. Use such controls sparingly.
