The FCC Wants You to Know
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference
to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
a) Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
b) Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
c) Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
d) Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician
or help.
FCC Warning
Modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the
user authority to operate the equipment under FCC Rules.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to
alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance
(servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
Introduction
The ACS56 is especially designed as a "Gaming"
amplified speaker system. The input signals to operate the
speakers are obtained from a multimedia computer with a
gaming "sound" card. The ACS56 can also operate from
a stereo sound card. However, in this instance only stereo
operation of the speakers is possible.
The ACS56 consists of four satellite speakers and a
subwoofer. The satellite speakers are magnetically
shielded and can be placed close to the computer monitor
without distorting color or images. The subwoofer is not
magnetically shielded and should not be placed close to
the monitor.
All stereo and surround sound is processed from the
satellite speakers. Subwoofer frequencies are monaural
and contain no stereo or surround information. As a result,
the subwoofer does not have to be placed in any particular
relationship to the satellite speakers. The subwoofer is not
magnetically sheilded and should not be placed near the
monitor. Placing the subwoofer on the floor close to a
wall, corner of a room or under a desk gives excellent
results. Figure 1 shows a typical arrangement of the
speakers for best stereo and spatial affects.
