• Do not use the speaker’s handles for suspended installation.
Doing so can result in damage or injury.
• Do no expose the device to excessive dust or vibrations,
or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a
heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility
of panel disfiguration or damage to the internal
components.
• Do not place the device in an unstable position where it
might accidentally fall over.
The speakers have coded terminals that accept a variety or
wire connectors.
To ensure proper polarity, connect each + terminal on the
back of the amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red)
terminal on each speaker. Connect the – (black) terminals in
a similar way. See the owner’s guides that were included
with your amplifier, receiver and television to confirm connection procedures.
CONNECTIONS
• Before connecting the device to other devices, turn of the
power for all devices. Before turning the power on or off
for all devices, set all volume levels to minimum.
CAUTION
• When turning on the AC power in your audio system,
always turn on the device LAST, to avoid speaker damage.
When turning the power off, the device should be turned
off FIRST for the same reason.
• Do not insert your fingers or hands in any gaps or
openings on the device (ports, etc.).
• Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects (paper, plastic,
metal, etc.) into any gaps or openings on the device
(ports, etc.). If this happens, turn off the power immediately
and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then
have the device inspected by qualified Better Music
Builder service personnel.
• Do not use the device for a long period of time at a high
or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause
permanent hearing loss. If you experience any hearing
loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.
• Do not operate the device if the sound is distorting.
Prolonged use in this condition could cause overheating
and result in fire.
• Do not rest your weight on the device or place heavy
objects on it, and avoid use excessive force on the buttons,
switches or connectors.
GETTING STARTED
WIRING
IMPORTANT: Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to – or – to +)
when making connections. Doing so will cause poor imaging
and diminished bass response.
ADJUSTING
Check the speakers for playback, first by setting the system
volume control to a minimum level, and then by applying
power to your audio system. Play a favorite music or video
segment and increase the system volume control to a comfortable level.
NOTE
You should hear balanced audio reproduction across
the entire frequency spectrum. If not, check all wiring connections or consult the authorized dealer from whom you
purchased the system for more help.
The amount of bass you hear and the stereo-image quality
will be affected by a number of different factors, including the
room’s size and shape, the construction materials used to
build the room, the listener’s position relative to the speakers,
and the position of the speakers in the room.
Listen to a variety of music selections and note the bass level.
If there is too much bass, move the speakers away from
nearby walls. Conversely, if you place the speakers closer to
the walls, there will be more bass output.
CARING
Each enclosure has a finish that does not require any routine
maintenance. When needed, use a soft cloth to remove any
fingerprints or dust from the enclosure or grille.
IMPORTANT: Make sure all equipment is turned off before
making any connections.
For speaker connections, use a high-quality speaker wire with
polarity coding. The side of the wire with a ridge or other
coding is usually considered positive polarity
NOTE
If desired, consult Better Music Builder technical support
for speaker wire and connection options.

Dynamic Fusion Technology™ (DFT)
The Better Music Builder engineers have been working hard
on brining home entertainment to the next level, the experience that people have been dreaming about but never had
before such as real excitement, freestyle performing, and
intensive hearing are included all in one system. To meet
audience’s expectation, our engineers understand the need to
research and develop the latest technologies. For this reason,
Better Music Builder step developed the Dynamic Fusion
Technology™ (DFT).
DFT practices the latest computer stimulation technology to
design smaller size circuit with better distortion minimization
function. The T share horn is specially designed to facilitate
the composition of array. The woofer uses a 75mm diameter
high-power voice coil with round copper wire, and the layer
is 2 way around the inside and outside. The voice coil frame
material with very high levels of TIL provides excellent strength
and high power capacity, which can boost the speaker
power up to 400W, and the short-term maximum power can
reach up to 1600W. The tweeter with magnalium
diaphragm is made by high-temperature heat treatment
process to maximize damping strength and to reduce
proportion of 3rd harmonic distortion to create more natural,
delicate and nice sound.
DFT is a unique design that integrates in the drivers to
enhance several critical performance parameters: frequency
response, power output, and distortion.
By implementing DFT, engineers understand that the shape of
the pole piece that can affect the magnetic interaction
between the voice coil and the magnetic field, and is
sometimes used to modify a driver’s behavior. A “shorting
ring”, or Faraday loop, may be included as a thin copper
cap fitted over the pole tip or as a heavy ring situated within
the magnet-pole cavity. The benefits are to reduce impedance at high frequencies, providing extended treble output,
reduced harmonic distortion, and a reduction in the inductance modulation that typically accompanies large voice coil
excursions. On the other hand, the copper cap requires a
wider voice-coil gap, with increased magnetic reluctance;
this reduces available flux, requiring a slightly larger magnet
for equivalent performance.

The wire in the voice coil is made of copper, and its cross
section is hexagonal, giving varying amounts of wire volume
coverage in the magnetic gap space. The coil is oriented
co-axially inside the gap; it moves back and forth within a
small circular volume (a hole, slot, or groove) in the magnetic
structure. The gap establishes a concentrated magnetic field
between the two poles of a permanent magnet; the outside
of the gap being one pole, and the center post (called the
pole piece) being the other. The pole piece and back plate
are often a single piece, called the pole plate or yoke.
DFT’s Dynamic Transition Waveguides™ (DTWaveguides)
represents the latest horn technology. In addition to providing
smooth, low distortion sound, DTWaveguides delivers uniform
off-axis frequency response to every point within the intended
coverage area – not just in the horizontal and vertical planes –
resulting in superior array – ability of multiple loudspeaker
systems. PTWaveguides combine outstanding pattern control
with undistorted sound for natural music and intelligible speech.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Troublesh ooting
1. SYMPTOM: NO SOUNDS COMING OUT FROM THE
SPEAKERS
Probable causes:
1. The A/C power of the speaker is turned off.
2. Wrong A/C power selection (i.e. 110V~ 220V).
Remedy:
A. Turn on the A/C power of the speaker.
B. Make sure the receiver or amplifier is on and the source is
playing.
C. Check all wires and connections between receivers,
amplifiers and speakers. Make sure all wires are connected,
none of the speaker wires are frayed, cut or punctured, and
that no wires are touching each other.
D. Review proper operation of your receiver or amplifier.
E. Choose the right A/C power.
2. SYMPTOM: NO SOUNDS COMING OUT FROM ONLY
ONE SPEAKER
Probable cause:
3. SYMPTOM: NOISES FROM THE SPEAKER.
Probable cause:
The A/C power cord of the speaker is not grounded.
Remedy:
Change a new magnet cord of the A/C power cord.
4. SYMPTOM: MICROPHONE VOLUME IS TOO LOW.
Probable causes:
A. The microphone is poorly connected to the speaker.
B. The volume on the speaker is too low.
Remedy:
A. Check the connection between the microphone and the
speaker. Make sure that they are connected properly.
Condense microphone doesn't work with the speaker. You
may need to change to a dynamic vocal microphone.
B. Turn the volume to an appropriate level. If the volume is
still not high enough, you may need to upgrade your existing
audio system to a system with much higher output.
The A/C power of the speaker is turned off.
Remedy:
A. Check the "Balance" control on your receiver or amplifier.
B. Check all wires and connections between receiver,
amplifier and speaker. Make sure all wires are connected,
none of the speaker wires are frayed, cut or punctured, and
that no wires are touching each other.
C. In Dolby® Digital or DTS® mode, make sure that the
receiver or processor is configured so that the speaker in
question is enabled.
D. Turn off all electronics and switch the speaker in question
with another speaker that is working correctly. Turn
everything back on, and determine whether the problem is in
the same place: i.e., the speaker that was working previously
now has no sound and the speaker that was not working
now sounds fine. If the problem is in the same place, the
source of the problem is most likely with your receiver or
amplifier, and you should consult the owner's manual for
further information. If the problem is with the speaker, consult
your dealer for further assistance, or visit our web site for
technical support.
5. SYMPTOM: CRACKING NOISES FROM THE SPEAKER.
Probable cause:
The tweeter may be burned out.
Remedy:
Replace with a new tweeter.
Note: we recommend hiring a professional to change a
tweeter in order to do it properly.
6. SYMPTOM: SOUNDS LIKE DAZZ, DAZZ, DAZZ ........
COMING FROM THE SPEAKER.
Probable cause:
The speaker cable (with small gauges) is over 100 feet.
Remedy:
Change to a higher quality cable preferably 12 and 14
gauges.
14
FINAL WORDS TO USER
Final Word s
7. SYMPTOM: TOO MUCH MICROPHONE FEEDBACK
FROM THE SPEAKER.
Probable cause:
Incorrect tremble and bass adjustments on the speaker.
Remedy:
Adjust the tremble and bass to an appropriate level to avoid
microphone feedback.
8. SYMPTOM: NO SOUND FROM THE MAIN SPEAKERS
Probable cause:
Speaker connectors are not connected properly.
Remedy:
Please make sure that the speaker connectors are locked
tight. Please also note that there are two groups of speakon
connectors (i.e. Group 1 +1, –1, Group 2 +2, –2). Make
sure that your speakers have the multifunction that enables the
connection to Group 2 for different signal inputs. The basic
connection is on Group 1 (+1, –1).

equipments and technologies is available for download on
our website, w w w.B etterMusicBu ilder.co m.
9. SYMPTOM: SOMETIMES THE SPEAKERS HAVE NO
SOUND.
Probable cause:
When the master volume reaches the maximum level, the
speaker automatically shuts down because this speaker has
a built-in auto circuit to protect itself when the master volume
becomes too high.
Remedy:
Change to a higher power amplifier to work with the
speakers. Please make sure the output power of the amplifier
can match that of the speakers. Another option is to add
more speakers or subwoofers for higher output as below.
1. Add one more loudspeaker.
2. Add one more powered subwoofer.
We highly recommend hiring an audio professional for
advise on the right engineering for the amplifier and
speakers.
