NTRODUCTION
Infinity Entra Series
The Entra Series of loudspeakers continues Infinity's
longstanding commitment to accurate sound reproduction.
Our proprietary Ceramic Metal Matrix Diaphragm
drivers, precision dividing networks and rigid, well-braced
enclosures combine to deliver uncompromised performance in
any stereo or multichannel home theater system. In addition,
Entra Series speakers, except for the powered subwoofer, are
magnetically shielded for safe placement adjacent to a television.

Unpacking the Speakers

Carefully unpack the speakers. If you suspect damage from
transit, report it immediately to your dealer and/or delivery
service. Keep the shipping carton and packing materials for
future use. Open the package and verify the following contents:

Before deciding where to place your Entra Point Five speakers,
survey your room and think about placement, keeping the
following points in mind, using Figure 1 as a guide:
• For best results, place the speakers 6'– 8' apart.
• Position each speaker so that the tweeter is approximately at
ear level.
• Generally, bass output will increase as the speaker is moved
closer to a wall or corner.
• Refer to "Home Theater" below if you also plan to use the
speakers in a home theater system.

Home Theater

For front-channel use, place one speaker on the left and another
on the right along either side of the television monitor. Since the
speakers are magnetically shielded, you can place them without
worrying about the field distorting the TV picture.
For rear-channel use, place Entra Point Five speakers on
bookshelves or stands alongside the listening position. Final
placement depends on room acoustics, availability of space
and your listening preference (Figure 2).
NOTE: An Infinity powered subwoofer will add impact and
realism to both music and film soundtracks. Contact your Infinity
dealer for recommendations on subwoofer models for your
application.
