Introduction Center Channel Plus Placement
Center Channel Plus is a two-way acoustic-suspension speaker system optimized for use as the center channel speaker in a Dolby
®
Digital
or Dolby® Pro Logic
®
Surround system. Its four 3" woofers and ring-radiator tweeter provide the performance and power-handling appropriate to the finest home theater systems.
Center Channel II is a similar speaker featuring two 3" woofers instead of four.
For both the Center Channel Plus and the Center Channel II, use the “SMALL” center channel setting of a Dolby Digital decoder. Also for both speakers, use the “NORMAL” setting of a Dolby Surround with Pro Logic decoder. Both of these settings direct low-bass sound to the left and right main speakers or the subwoofers.
Because a primary purpose of the center channel is to keep dialog firmly centered on the TV screen, a center channel speaker should be placed in close proximity to the TV set as shown in Figure 1. Both of our center channel speakers are magnetically shielded to allow this placement without distorting the picture.
