SETTING UP
THE
COMPONENTS OF YOUR SYSTEM
5 Alcyone
speakers, 5 sets for use on bookshelf, 5 wall sup-
ports, screws to fix the supports.
1 Santorin 17 active
subwoofer, 1 CINCH cable, 5 loud-
speaker cables ( 3 x 6 m / 20 ft - 2 x 12 m / 40 ft), 4 spikes for
the subwoofer.
The Alcyone speaker can be placed on a shelf
3
or
fixed on the optional stand
POSITIONNING 5
Alcyone
speakers have all the same technical features; they
can be used on any channel. All the speakers are magnetically
shielded to prevent interference with the image of your tele-
vision set; they can thus be placed near any screen.
No solid object or piece of
between the speakers and the listener.
Front left and right speakers must be directed towards the
listening area and placed on either side of the screen with at
least a distance of 7 ft and 16 ft (2 and 5 m) between the 2
speakers.
The
centre satellite should be placed as close as possible to
the screen: on the top, below, or directly on your television
set. Place the satellite at the vertical of the screen for a per-
fect cohesion and precision between dialogues and picture.
Surround speakers should be placed against the side walls,
at listening height or higher if possible and slightly behind the
listening area.
The Alcyone
subwoofer should be placed in the front listen-
ing area, with the 4 spikes on. If the floor is fragile (wood,
marble...) use the 4 cups delivered with the spikes.
To get the best result, it is always necessary to carry out tests
according to the acoustics of the room. To prevent interfer-
ence with the screen of your television set, place the sub-
woofer at least 2 ft (0.6m) of your television set.

Caution ! Before making
any connection turn off your AV amplifier
and unplug it from the outlet. Not doing so may result in damage to
your system.
Caution ! It is
imperative before any connection to respect the setting
in phase by connecting the terminals +/red of the AV amplifier to the
terminal +/red of the speakers. Proceed then in the same way for ter-
minals -/black.
Connect the LINE INPUT
terminal of the subwoofer to the
output SUBWOOFER/LFE of the AV amplifier using the CINCH
cable.
Check all the connections carried out on the speakers, the
subwoofer and the amplifier. Ensure that each speaker is con-
nected according to its position in the room. Check that all the
speakers are well in phase (+/red in +/red and -/black in -
/black). Once this checking made you can connect your ampli-
fier and the subwoofer to the sector.
Caution !
To prevent the risks of electric shock take care to com-
pletely insert plugs of sector cords.
SUBWOOFER ADJUSTING
Take care of positioning the sector switch 110V/220V on the
right position according to your country.
The switch ON/OFF (located on the back) of the subwoofer
has 3 positions:
ON
AUTO:
Automatic, the
system is put automatically on ON or
OFF according to the presence of signal coming from the AV
amplifier. Put the switch ON/OFF on AUTO or ON position.
OFF
CROSSOVER:
adjust the
potentiometer on 250 Hz.
VOLUME:
the adjustment of the volume will depend upon
room positioning, type of amplifiers... With Alcyone SYSTEM
the average position of the LEVEL potentiometer is on a "2
o'clock" position. For an optimum adjustment of the volume,
we advise you to carry out it starting from a stereo source
(CD). Then use the TEST TONE of your AV amplifier to adjust
the level of channel SUBWOOFER/LFE.
PHASE: usually it is
necessary to position the potentiometer
on 0°, however 2 positions can be used 0° and 180 °.
- adjust the potentiometer on 0° when the subwoofer and the
front speakers are positioned at the same distance of the lis-
tening area.
- adjust the potentiometer on 180° when the subwoofer is
positioned 5 ft (1.5m) ahead or behind the front speakers.
