POSiTiONiNg
5
:
Eole 3 speakers have all the same technical features; they can
be used on any channel. All the speakers are magnetically
shielded to prevent interference with the image of your
television set; they can thus be placed near any screen.
No solid object or piece of furniture should be placed between
the speakers and the listener.
Front left and right speakers must be directed towards the
listening area and placed on either side of the screen with at
least a distance of 7 ft and 16 ft (2 and 5 m) between the 2
speakers.
The centre satellite should be placed as close as possible to
the screen: on the top, below, or directly on your television
set. Place the satellite at the vertical of the screen for a perfect
cohesion and precision between dialogues and picture.
Surround speakers should be placed against the side walls, at
listening height or higher if possible and slightly behind the
listening area.
The Santorin 21 M2 subwoofer should be placed in the front
listening area. To get the best result, it is always necessary
to carry out tests according to the acoustics of the room. To
prevent interference with the screen of your television set,
place the subwoofer at least 2 ft (0.6m) of your television set.

CAUTION ! Before making any connection turn off
your AV amplifier and unplug it from the outlet. Not
doing so may result in damage to your system.
CAUTION ! It is imperative before any connection
to respect the setting in phase by connecting the
ter/red of the AV amplifier to the terminal
+/red of the speakers. Proceed then in the same way
for terminals -/black.
Connect of the LiNE iN inputs of the subwoofer to the output
SUBWOOFER/LFE of the AV amplifier using the CINCH cable.
Check all the connections carried out on the speakers, the
subwoofer and the amplifier. Ensure that each speaker is
connected according to its position in the room. Check that all
the speakers are well in phase (+/red in +/red and -/black in - /
black). Once this checking made you can connect your amplifier
and the subwoofer to the sector.

Use the supplied loudspeaker cables to connect the speaker
outputs of your integrated stereo amplifier to the HIGH LEVEL
iNPuTS of the Santorin 21 M2, then connect the high LEVEL
OuTPuTS of the Santorin 21 M2 to the terminals of the eOle
loudspeakers. ATTENTION: be assured that all “+” inputs are
effectively connected to “+” outputs as well as all left outputs
to left inputs.
CAUTION ! To prevent the risks of electric shock take
care to completely insert plugs of mains cords.

:
Take care of positioning the sector switch 115V/230V on the
right position according to your country.
Connect the subwoofer to the mains and switch the power
button to «ON».
crossover : adjust the potentiometer on 140 Hz for 2.1
configuration and 200 Hz for the 5.1one.
volume : the adjustment of the volume will depend upon
room positioning, type of amplifiers… With Eole 3 SYSTEM the
average position is on a “11 AM” position. For an optimum
adjustment of the volume, we advise you to carry out it starting
from a stereo source (CD). Then use the TEST TONE of your AV
amplifier to adjust the level of channel SUBWOOFER/LFE.
phase : usually it is necessary to position the potentiometer
on 0°, however 2 positions can be used 0° and 180 °.
- adjust the potentiometer on 0° when the subwoofer and
the front speakers are positioned at the same distance of the
listening area.
- adjust the potentiometer on 180° when the subwoofer is
positioned 5 ft (1.5m) ahead or behind the front speakers.
