Configuració

1. Col·locació d'altaveus

Optimal speaker placement is crucial for achieving the best surround sound experience. Consider the following guidelines:

• Front Left and Right Satellites: Place these speakers equidistant from your listening position, typically on either side of your monitor or TV.
• Center Channel Satellite: Position this speaker directly in front of your listening position, usually above or below your monitor/TV, ensuring dialogue is clear and centered.
• Rear Left and Right Satellites: Place these speakers behind your listening position, ideally slightly to the sides, to create an enveloping surround effect.
• subwoofer: The subwoofer can be placed anywhere in the room, but often performs best when positioned in a corner or near a wall to enhance bass response. Ensure it is at least 2 feet away from your PC or monitor due to its powerful magnet.

2. Connecting Speakers to the Subwoofer

Connect each satellite speaker to the corresponding spring clip terminals on the rear of the subwoofer. Ensure that the positive (+) wire (often marked with a stripe or color) from the speaker connects to the red (+) terminal on the subwoofer, and the negative (-) wire connects to the black (-) terminal. Incorrect polarity can result in poor sound quality.
