W A R N I N G
DO NOT OPEN.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

1. The two satellite speakers should be positioned on each side of your
computer monitor. To wall mount, the pedestal stands may be removed by
unscrewing the 1/4" 20-thread bolt, which accommodates a wide variety of
wall brackets available through stereo and appliance stores.
2. Place the subwoofer under your computer desk. The subwoofer must be
placed on the floor near a wall with the rear panel toward the wall. Do not
cover up the sub driver or front port of the enclosure and be sure to provide
enough ventilation to the rear of the subwoofer. It is normal for this panel to
be warm to the touch. The subwoofer should be at least 3 feet (1m) from the
computer monitor to avoid interference.
3. Speaker or power cables running across an area of heavy foot traffic should be
positioned against a wall or corner and secured with tape.
SPEAKER CONNECTION DIAGRAM
1. Do not plug in the AC power cord until your computer/audio system is set up.
2. Connect mini plug to PC soundcard from the control satellite preamp. Care
should be advised concerning the cables at back of sub. Bumping them could
cause damage.
3. Connect the DIN plug to the sub from the control satellite preamp.
4. Connect the speakers by inserting the tinned wire leads into the subwoofer.
The solid black wires (-) connect to the black spring clips; the black wires
with red stripes (+) to the red spring clips.
5. Plug the AC power cord into a wall outlet.
6. Plug headphone mini stereo plug in headphone jack, if desired.
7. Plug stereo mini plug into MP3/Aux jack. Plug stereo mini plug into MP3
player (for example).
Since the ProMedia 2.1 has its own internal amplifier, it was designed to use
the "line out" connector of the computer. Connection to the speaker level output
jack might result in poor sound quality.
