Unpacking

Carefully remove your new Acoustech

speakers from the box. Inspect the speak-

ers for transit damage. If you discover

damage, contact your dealer immediately.

Save your carton — it is the best possible

protection for your speakers should you

ever have a need to move them.

Surround Sound Listening Setups

Refer to Figures 1 and 2 for 5.1 and 7.1

speaker placement. The rear-channel

surround speakers should be positioned

behind and slightly to the sides of the

viewer/listener as shown in Figure 1,

or behind and to the sides as shown

in Figure 2. It may take some

experimentation with different locations

for the surround speakers to suit your

preference and your room.

Once you have determined the placement

for your speakers, you also have the

option of mounting them to the wall.

Hooking Up Your new Speakers

STOP! — Make sure that you consult your

amplifier's owner's manual regarding speaker

hook-up.Your amplifier should be turned off

throughout this procedure.

A word about speaker wire – There are a

number of quality speaker wire products

available today. Most of these products offer

obvious cosmetic benefits over lamp cord

and light gauge wires. Acoustech Speaker

Systems come equipped with gold-plated

binding posts. The choice of speaker wire is

dependent on the type of amplifier, the dis-

tance you intend to run the wire, and your

budget, among other things. If in doubt as

to which brand or type of wire to use, con-

sult your audio dealer.

Most speaker wire is polarity coded. This

means that each conductor is labeled either

(+) positive or (-) negative. The (+) positive

side may be a different color or texture than

the (-) negative side. On the back of your

amplifier, each channel is probably labeled

(+) and (-) as well as color coded red for

(+) positive and black for (-) negative.

Acoustech speaker terminals are color coded

red for (+) positive and black for (-) nega-

tive. Be sure to hook (+) to (+), (red to

red), and (-) to (-), (black to black). (See

Figure 3.)

All connections should be tight and close fit

ting. Inspect connections for frays and stray

strands of wire touching both (+) and (-)

terminals. (This will cause a short and,

perhaps, damage your equipment.)

caring for Your Speakers

Acoustech speaker cabinets are finished

with a very high quality polymer lacquer

covering that is both attractive and serves

as excellent protection for the wood cabi-

net. The cabinet can be cleaned with a

damp, soft cloth or you may use a high-

quality furniture polish to maintain the

original luster. Use a soft brush or hand

vacuum cleaner on the grille material.

troubleshooting and Service

Acoustech speakers do not use external

fuse protection or circuit breakers because

these devices tend to impede sound quality

and may only protect the speaker to a

marginal degree. Rather, we use compo-

nents and designs of the highest caliber

as an effective method of protecting the

speaker. However, no amount of protection

will prevent damage caused by defective

associated equipment or extreme abuse.

If your speaker has no output, first try to

determine if it is indeed a speaker problem.

Determine whether the problem exists in

both speakers. If it does, the problem

likely originates in some other component

in the system. If the problem is in one

speaker only, reverse your speaker leads

(left to right, right to left). If the problem

moves to the other channel, the issue is

not the speakers.

If you have determined that your speaker

is not functioning properly, or you have

questions, please contact B . I . C America at

877-558-4242.
