PLACEMENT
The ATS-1 “All Terrain Speaker” is designed for indoor and outdoor playback of music and home theater sources.
Each speaker includes a convenient stand / mount with a ball and socket type swivel adjustment to facilitate aiming
the speaker at your seating area. As you unpack your speaker, please note the allen (hex) wrench provided that will
be required to set the correct speaker angle. The ATS-1 is video shielded for safe placement on or near a television
or computer monitor.
AMPLIFIER CONNECTIONS
Before making any connection, make sure your stereo ampli
fi
er or receiver’s power is turned off. Each speaker has
a red (+) terminal and a black (-) ground terminal which will match the speaker output terminals on your ampli
fi
er or
receiver. Correctly connecting red to red and black to black from your ampli
fi
er to your speaker will ensure correct
phase connection. We recommend 16-guage or heavier wire for the best performance for your speakers. Choose
speaker wire that de
fi
nes each conductor with color coding or texture on at least one of the two wire leads to ensure
proper phase connection. If our home theater receiver has a set-up menu, we recommend that the “small” setting
be selected for the front left and right, center and surround speakers.
