Soundbar/ On-wall LCR Speakers

OWNER’S MANUAL

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of RBH Ultra Series speaker! Your speaker is the result of
many years of research and development dedicated to producing high quality products for
home audio systems.

This manual contains features, setup recommendations and specifications for the RBH
Ultra Series speakers. We recommend you thoroughly read through the material contained
in this manual before connecting your soundbar speaker. This will ensure you have a good
understanding of how to setup your speakers for optimum performance and allow for years
of listening enjoyment.

Break-in Period

Allow 10-15 hours of listening time to adequately break-in the RBH Ultra Series speakers.
As the speaker’s break-in, the driver suspension will loosen. The result of break-in will be an
increase in low frequency response, improved definition, and increased clarity and detail.

Care and Cleaning

The unique grille for the Ultra Series has been designed to be as lightweight and acoustically
transparent as possible and is held in place by magnets imbedded in the frame of the cabinet.
If the grille requires cleaning carefully lift the grille off the speaker and lightly vacuum
any dust if necessary. The speakers cabinet has a durable finish that should only require dry
dusting or cleaning with a dry cloth. Avoid the use of abrasive or solvent-based cleaners
and harsh detergents.

Attaching Speaker Wires

The Ultra Series speakers use spring-loaded speaker wire
terminals to firmly hold either a pin connector or bare speaker
wire. To obtain a better connection, it is important to slightly
tug on the wires after they have been secured in the terminals.
Since the Ultra-3 soundbar speaker contains the LEFT, RIGHT
and CENTER channels, connect each one of these channels
from your amplifier. Using 16-gauge or larger speaker wire,
connect the RED “positive” (+) terminal of the LEFT speaker
to the RED “positive” (+) terminal of your amplifier’s LEFT
channel. Connect the BLACK “negative” (-) terminal of the left
speaker to the BLACK “negative” (-) terminal of your amplifier’s
left channel. Repeat for the right and the center channels.

WARNING: Make sure that no bare wires from any of the
connections touch each other or any other terminals as this
could cause a short and damage your equipment.

1. Remove the last 4 inches of the speaker wire jacket at end
of each cable to allow easier pull-through and connection
flexibility of the + and – individual wires.

2. Use a wire stripper to remove about 3/8-inch of insulation
from the end of each + and – wires.

3. Twist the ends of each conductor to secure loose strands.

4. Connect the positive (+) wire to the red terminal on the
front of the speaker by pressing down on the red positive
(+) terminal’s tab, inserting the end of the positive
conductor, and releasing the tab.

5. Repeat this procedure to connect the negative (-)
conductor to the black negative (-) terminal.

Features

Fast to mount. The Ultra-3 can be custom sized to widths of 47 to 63 to fit most popular sized
on-wall TVs. Both the Ultra-1 and Ultra-3 have a contemporary design, magnetic mounted
black fabric grille, and are only 1-5/8-inches deep. The speaker enclosure features internal
bracing and sealed separate internal chambers for each channel to produce the great sound
you need and expect from RBH. Innovative and proprietary inverted-dome aluminum 4-inch
woofers and 1-inch aluminum tweeters with textured phase plugs make the thin cabinet yet
big sound possible. Our ez-wire terminals and fast mounting, including direct-from-front
screw-through mount holes (hidden until needed), make the Ultra Series speakers easier to
install. The Ultra Series speakers provide effortless, quick, brilliant sound.
