Placement
Two Channel Stereo Application
For stereo listening, you may choose any one
pair of bookshelf or floor standing model. The
size of speakers should be determined by the
size of your living space so that they can
p r o v i d e s u f f i c i e n t v o l u m e . T h e t w o
loudspeakers should be placed an equal
distance from your listening position.
Bookshelf systems will also benefit from
placement on stands or shelves. The C-Series
stands are designed to match the bookshelf
speakers functionally and aesthetically.
Placing the loudspeakers in corners or against
a wall will result in the strongest ( but not
necessarily the most accurate ) bass. For the
best stereo imaging, we recommend that the
systems be placed so that the high frequency
transducers are as close as possible to the ear
level of a seated listener.
Multi - Channel Application
Please refer to Table 2 for different system
configuration depending on room sizes.
To get the best surround sound from your
C-Series speakers, we recommend to position
the speakers at the same distance from the
listening position.
The center speaker, however, may be moved
closer, but not beyond the straight line
connecting the two front speakers. The rear
speakers may also be closer to listening
position than the front speakers to suit the
configuration of your room.

characteristics and people have different tastes
in sound. You should experiment to find out
the placement position that satisfy your
personal tastes.

Notes:
Do not place the center or rear speakers
farther away from the listening position
than the front speakers.
When mounting the rear speakers on side
walls perpendicular to the listening position
they should be placed 60~90 cm above the
listener's ear level at sitting down position.
Depending on the shape of your room,
you may wish to place the rear speakers
behind you instead of on the side walls. In
this case, you can use a pair of large floor
standing speakers matching your front
speakers.
Connections
Note:
Make sure your amplifier is off and
disconnected from power while you are
connecting speakers to amplifier. Turn your
amplifier on only after you check and make
sure speakers are properly connected.
Two Channel Stereo Application
Connections are made at the terminals located
on the back of the loudspeaker system. The
terminals accept spade plugs, bare wire or
banana plugs. For best results, use high quality
speaker cables.
All C-Series loudspeakers have 4 gold plated
binding post for single or bi-wring options.
Single Wiring
This method uses only one pair of cables to
connect each speaker to the amplifier. ( as
shown in Figure 1).
For each channel, the red terminal on the
loudspeaker should be connected to the red or
(+) loudspeaker connection terminal on the
receiver or amplifier. The black terminal on
the loudspeaker should be connected to the
black or (-) loudspeaker connection terminal
on the receiver or amplifier. Connecting the
loudspeakers in this manner ensures that they
will be in phase; that is, work together rather
than in opposition.
Connecting the
loudspeakers out of phase will not damage
them, but will result in less bass and poor
imaging.
Note: make sure the metal links are in place
