User Manual - SLIM-100 SLIM-200 SLIM-300 SLIM-H20
Description:
TruAudio offers the perfect solution for on-wall and/or Flat screen speakers. These speakers were specifically designed and built to provide superior quality for your front right, left and center channels. Both models can easily handle the current and past formats that today’s audio/video demands. This makes these ideal for your home theater and 2 channel TV listening inside and out..
The SLIM-300 and SLIM-H2O pushes the limit of innovation. These speakers contains all three front speakers all in one enclosure. That’s right, the one cabinet houses the front left, right and center speaker. The cabinet is divided into three separate chambers so that each speaker has its own airspace and operates independently. It mounts perfectly next to a TV and no other clutter is needed, just the one speaker.
All models are timbre matched to each other, as well as other TruAudio architectural speakers so combining different models in an AV system will not be a problem. Additional TruAudio speakers can be added to a system with the confidence that the speakers will remain balanced.

All service to this product MUST be done by a TruAudio Authorized repair center. If you try to do any kind of repair, this will void the warranty! We recommend that you retain the packaging in case a need arises for you to transport your loudspeakers.
Home Theater Use:
Today’s Home Theater systems require 6 or more speakers for true, life like Home Cinema listening. These speakers are: the front right and left, the center channel, right and left surround (rear), and a subwoofer. Some systems also require additional surround speakers or rear centers to enhance the theater sound. The placement for these speakers is critical to having your home theater experience the best it can be.
Before Installation:
In order for these speakers to perform to their potential, we recommend the amplifier or receiver must have the proper amount of power output. We suggest using 5 to 100 watts. These speakers require 2 conductor speaker cable when connecting to the amplifier/ receiver. For most applications, we suggest using a good quality, high strand 16 gauge or larger.
If the speaker cable will be run inside the wall or ceiling, make sure the speaker cable is UL certified and is accordance with all your local building regulations.
Speaker Placement SLIM100:
The SLIM100 was designed to be used for the front right, left or center channels. They can be mounted on the walls or on the optional speaker stands. These speakers are meant specifically to be mounted next to a flat screen display. If you are now ready to look at speaker placement, most likely, the TV has already been mounted. If the TV is already mounted obviously the speaker location is pretty much pre-determined. They will be mounted on either
side of the TV and the center speaker will be mounted above or below the TV.
As you can see, the
TV
speakers are center with the TV on the side and below.
When using the SLIM100 as the center channel, it can be mount above or below the TV. This speaker does not have to be mounted on the wall, is can also sit on a shelf or stand above or below the TV. Make sure this speaker is not mounted too high or too low relative to the right and left speakers.
Speaker Placement SLIM-200, SLIM-300, SLIM-H20:
They’re meant to be mounted on the wall or on a shelf with the specifically designed stand (not included). This speaker is meant to be mounted above or below the TV.
TV
Please keep in mind all the notes mentioned above when determining the final installation for this speaker.
If at this time, the TV has not been mounted and you are trying to determine locations of the speakers and TV, please keep in mind the following:
Try to ensure that the sound will not be blocked by furniture or any other objects. Also take into consideration other furniture locations, wall covering and windows when finalizing your speaker locations. The main seating should have direct line of sight of the speakers. The perfect application would be the couch (or chairs) be placed in the center of the TV.
For the best sound home performance, the right and left speakers should be mounted on either side of the TV. These two front speakers should be mounted with 5 to 10 feet between them. This will give you true stereo imaging when played in 2-channel. If the speakers are too close together, it will cluster the sound too much around the TV and if the speakers are too far apart, it will distract the listener away from the actual picture.
Speaker Installation: SLIM100: Determine the precise location of where the SLIM100 will be mounted. Try to mount the wall bracket directly into a stud for optimum support. If there is no stud
behind the desired installation location, you must use strong molly or toggle bolts to mount the speaker to the wall. Now that you have determined the exact location, mark it on the wall with a pencil. Put in the screw or molly bolt and hang the speaker. When using more than one screw to mount the speaker, make sure they are in line with each other so the speaker hangs level once installed.
