Hooking Up Your Mythos Loudspeakers
Your Mythos loudspeakers each have one pair of gold 5-way binding
posts. Normally, you will hook up the left main/front channel red(+)
terminal of your receiver or amplifier to the red(+) terminal of your left
Mythos loudspeaker and the left main/front channel black(-) terminal
of your receiver or amplifier to the black(-) terminal of your left Mythos
loudspeaker. Connect the right channel main/front channel red(+) termi-
nal of your amplifier or receiver to the red(+) terminal of your right
Mythos loudspeaker and the black(-) terminal of the right main/front
channel of your receiver or amplifier to the black(-) terminal of your
right Mythos loudspeaker.
If you are using the Mythos as side/rear surround speakers, hook up
the left surround red(+) terminal of your receiver or amplifier to the red(+)
terminal of your Mythos left surround speaker and the left surround
black(-) terminal of your receiver or amplifier to the black(-) terminal
of your Mythos left surround speaker. Connect the right surround red(+)
terminal of your amplifier or receiver to the red(+) terminal of your
Mythos right surround loudspeaker and the black(-) terminal of the right
surround channel of your receiver or amplifier to the black(-) terminal
of your Mythos right surround loudspeaker.
If your receiver/ decoder has a bass management system and you are
using a separate subwoofer, set bass management to “Small” left and right
main speakers, “Small” center channel, “Small” surround speakers and
“Yes” subwoofer. If your receiver/decoder has a choice of crossover
frequencies, set the crossover to 80 Hz. If you are not using a separate
subwoofer, set bass management to “Large” left and right main speakers,
“Large” center channel and “Large” surround speakers, and “No”
subwoofer. Normally we recommend that these speakers be used
with a subwoofer in order to realize their full performance potential.
