    Total design compatibility, ensuring all models share the same acoustical balance and dispersion characteristics, means that it is essential that an Definition A/V system is built around only Definition Dual Concentric models (it is not possible to mix in products with other driver types) as the acoustic integration of each has been optimised only for use as a complete system.

    As with the main speakers the front baffle panel should be as near as possible in line with the screen surface. The Definition centre channel can be wired in single wire, bi-wire or bi-amp modes. Please refer to figs. 4, 5 & 6 for connection guidance bearing in mind that connection should be made to the dedicated centre channel output on your A/V processor amplifier/s.
