Placing Speakers

Subwoofer

ll stereo-encoded information is heard through the satellite speakers. The

A subwoofer contains no stereo imaging, and its sound is non-directional. As a

sult, the subwoofer doesn’t have to be placed in any particular relationship to

he satellites. However, placing the subwoofer on the ﬂo

t room corner provides better bass efﬁciency and optimum sound.

Warning: The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded. As such, it SHOULD be placed at least 2 feet (0.6m) from TVs, computer monitors, computer hard drives or any other magnetic media (e.g., ﬂoppy disks, Zip disks, computer or audio tapes, etc.).

Front Satellite Speakers

Arrange the front satellite speakers to suit your listening tastes — from right next to the monitor to as far apart as the speaker cords allow. Use the key hole on the back of each speaker if you choose to mount them on the wall.

Center Speaker

Place the center speaker either on top or below the center of the monitor. Use the key holes on the back of the center speaker if you choose to mount it on the wall.

Rear Satellite Speakers

The rear satellite speakers should be placed slightly behind you, or as far back as the cords allow. Use the key hole on the back of each speaker if you choose to mount them on the wall.

For optimum sound, all satellites should be placed at or slightly above ear level, and in an arrangement that offers the most satisfying results.

Note: The satellite speakers ARE magnetically shielded and can be placed close to video displays such as TVs and computer monitors without distorting the image.

Infrared Eye

The infrared “eye” can be placed anywhere on your desktop where it will be able to “see” the wireless remote. The “eye” will recognize commands from the

Speaker System

To connect each satellite to the subwoofer, use the FRONT LEFT (front left),

RONT RIGHT (front right), REAR LEFT (rear left), REAR RIGHT (rear right) and

ENTER (center) identiﬁers on the back of each satellite to connect them to the

C appropriate output on the back of the subwoofer. To make the connection,

epress the color-coded spring-clip on the back of the subwoofer and insert the

d color-coded wire, and depress the black spring clip and insert black wire.

PC Audio/PC Gaming/DVD Playback

Sound cards designed for PC gaming or DVD playback have unique audio

utputs. Typically, the outputs will be marked as “front output,” “rear output”

o and “LFE/center output.” In some cases, slightly different terminology may be

sed. The sound card’s documentation should help you determine which outputs

Console Gaming

(Requires the use of the Console Gaming Y-Adapter, which is not included. This adapter can be purchased at www.alteclansing.com.)

Most console game systems feature dual-RCA outputs. To connect your speakers, follow the steps below:

• Locate or purchase a Console Gaming Y-Adapter with a lime green 3.5 mm stereo jack on one end and two RCA jacks on the other — one red and one white.

• Locate the red and white RCA plugs on the end of the cable connected to the back of your console gaming system. Connect them to the matching red and white RCA jacks on the Console Gaming Y-Adapter.

• Locate the green cable included with this system.
