2 HTS SET UP GUIDE

This high performance Tannoy loudspeaker system has been built and tested with care and precision to provide rst class
performance and reliable operation. To ensure maximum benet from ownership and for reasons of safety, please read through all
the information in this owner’s manual before operating and using this system for the rst time. Tannoy HTS systems are primarily

designed for use with the following equipment:-

• An AV or Home Cinema Receiver with integral 5.1 decoder, 5 power ampliers and a dedicated LFE or subwoofer line level

output.

• An integrated DVD player with 5.1 decoder, 5 power ampliers and a dedicated LFE or subwoofer line level output.

• A 5.1 decoder (with LFE or subwoofer output) feeding 5 separate power ampliers. A 5.1 decoder separates digital audio signals
from DVD, CD or Digital Broadcast sources into ve separate audio channels which feed the ve separate speakers in the HTS

system and a sixth channel which feeds an HTS subwoofer. Each speaker provides a separate function. The functions are:

• Centre Speaker which carries most of the dialogue or solo performances.

• Front Left and Front Right Speakers which carry special effects and left/right stereo information.

• Left Rear and Right Rear Speakers which carry special effects information.

In addition, the HTS subwoofer provides very low frequency sounds and special effects. The subwoofer supports low frequencies
for all 5 audio channels. Please refer to the separate Owner’s Manual provided with the subwoofer for full instructions.
