The Infinity Compositions Overture OVTR 1 speaker system is a super-compact, 3-way, fullrange bookshelf or stand-mounted speaker with an integral powered subwoofer. The OVTR 1
is ideal for use where space is at a premium. With its wide bandwidth and uniform response,
it excels in the accurate reproduction of music, but its high efficiency and ability to produce
realistic sound levels with minimal amplifier power make it equally suited for use in the finest
home theater system.
To start enjoying your new pair of Compositions Overture OVTR 1 speakers, first read and then
perform all instructions listed in this manual, as well as those found in the owner’s manuals of
associated components in your audio system. Also, please read the enclosed Important Safety
Instructions for detailed safety precautions. Save all instructions for future reference. These
speakers are covered by a limited five-year warranty (see the back cover), so save the bill of sale
to protect your purchase and aid in any service-related questions.
UNPACKING THE SPEAKERS
Finish unpacking the speaker box. Be careful lifting the speakers, since they are heavier
than they appear. If you suspect damage from transit, report it immediately to your dealer
and/or delivery service. Keep the shipping cartons and packing materials for future use.

speakers can be positioned vertically or

at least 2" away from an adjacent object,
shelf, or wall.
PLANNING YOUR SYSTEM
Before deciding where to place your Compositions Overture OVTR 1 speakers, survey your
room and keep the following points in mind:
◆
The OVTR 1 includes a side-firing woofer that requires a minimum 2" (25mm) clearance
from an object, shelf, or wall, whether placed vertically or horizontally, on a bookshelf or
stand (see Figure 1).
NOTE: The stand must be large enough to fully support the speaker.
◆
For vertical placement, make sure the woofers are facing toward or away from each other.
For stability, install the enclosed feet (see Installing Feet and Grilles on page 5).
◆
For best results, try placing the speakers closer together than the distance to the listening area.
◆
Refer to Figure 2 when placing speakers for best bass level and stereo image (also see
Operating The System on page 7).
Figure 2. Experiment with speaker
placement to obtain the best bass level
and stereo imaging in your room.
