Positioning Your ProMonitor 600 Rear/Side Surround Speakers
The surround speakers may be located on the side or behind the listeners. When
used on the sides, take care never to locate the speakers forward of the listeners. The
speakers may be located at or above ear level. If the speakers are placed on the rear
wall follow the same guidelines given for positioning the front speakers along the wall.
Speakers may be angled in toward the listening position or pointed straight ahead.
Note: Angling the speakers in so that they point directly at the listeners will result in
more detail and greater clarity.
Positioning Your ProCenter 600 Speaker
The ProCenter 600 can be placed either above or below the TV. If you are
putting the ProCenter 600 on a shelf or on a TV, try to place it forward with the
front of the speaker even with the front of the TV or the front of the shelf
.
ProCenter Vertical Angle Adjustment
Your ProCenter 600 loudspeaker has a simple built-in device which allows you
to adjust the vertical angle of the speaker. Please note that on the rear/center/under-
side of the speaker there is a foot. When you set the speaker down, the speaker will
lean back and rest of the foot. By varying how far you screw in the foot, you can
adjust the vertical angle of the speaker. We suggest that you aim the speaker so that
it aims directly towards the height of the listeners’ ear.
Your Definitive Technology subwoofer has been designed to operate at frequencies
generally below 150 Hz. Because low-frequency information in this range essentially
is non-directional, your subwoofer can be located anywhere in your listening room
that is most convenient. Also, the continuously variable low-pass filter operates at a
very fast roll-off, ensuring great performance wherever you place your subwoofer.
There are, however, some general rules that you should bear in mind when locating
your subwoofer:
1. For maximum output, the subwoofer should be placed in a corner or against the
wall, leaving roughly 2"– 4" clearance between the subwoofer and the wall(s).
2. Corner placement will increase the subwoofer’s efficiency, which in turn will
increase your system’s maximum output and improve the dynamic capability of
the subwoofer.
3. While one Definitive Technology subwoofer will always sound great, the use of
two subwoofers will definitely enhance your system’s performance by providing
a smoother and more consistent response pattern. Here, it is recommended that
you locate the subwoofers on the same side of the room as the main speaker of
the same channel.
