The Center Channel
Note that the center speaker, the TC1, is typically positioned below ear level but
angled so that the tweeter (the central 1” driver above the 3.5” midrange driver) is
directed toward ear level, as in
Figure 3.1.
If you place the center speaker above ear level (for example, mounted on top of a cabi-
net as in
Figure 3.2,
above
)
, then the center speaker should be rotated 180 degrees for
correct performance. In order to rotate the center speaker 180 degrees, simply place
the speaker on the side that was previously on top (tweeter above the midrange driver),
so that the tweeter is now below the midrange driver (as in
Figure 3.2
), allowing the
sound to better disperse at this new height.
Speaker binding posts
Cables come with pin connectors, banana plugs, spade connectors, looped wire, or
straight wire. The THIEL 3rd Avenue Collection is equipped with 5-way binding posts
to accept any of these connectors. Our speakers’ binding posts allow for a very solid
connection with the cables you select.
Figure 4.1
and
Figure 4.2
show the THIEL TM3 terminal plate and TC1 terminal plate,
which have two binding posts each.
The TT1 in the 3rd Avenue Collection has four post bindings or two pairs of terminals
at the back
(see Figure 4.3)
. Leave the jumper strap in place and use a cable to attach
each speaker to a separate channel of your amplifier.
