Placement
Acoustic Controls
System 8200 and 6200's LR speakers include unique acoustic controls
to help maximize their performance in your room. These controls are
explained in greater detail on page 9.
Model 8200 C and 6200 C Center Channel Speakers
It is vital to the accurate reproduction of a multi-channel soundtrack that
the three front speakers have the same sonic signature.Therefore,the 8200
C and 6200 C Center Channel Speakers contain the same driver comple-
ment as their respective matching LR speakers (see Figure 2).They are both
designed for use only with a dedicated subwoofer and include the same
unique acoustic controls mentioned above.
The 8200 C and 6200 C are designed to be placed horizontally, as opposed
to the vertical positioning intended for the 8200 and 6200 LRs.They too are
magnetically shielded so they can be placed directly adjacent to your TV
set with no adverse effects and they can be tilted on their dedicated bases
to provide optimum sonic clarity to the listening area.
NOTE: The 1" tweeter on the 8200 and 6200 is mounted in a
brushed aluminum plate that is visible through the metal mesh grilles.
If you prefer not to see this cosmetic addition, a black diecut foam
trim piece is included for each tweeter plate. Simply peel the paper
backing and carefully align the foam to the tweeter and press on
to the aluminum plate. Please be aware that the foam piece is not
intended to be removed after attachment.
Models 8200 SR and 6200 SR Surround Speakers
The Models 8200 SR and 6200 SR Dipole/Bipole Surround Speakers (Figure
3) are intended for use in multi-channel audio/video sound systems only
as dedicated side or back surround channel speakers. The 8200 SR enclo-
sure has two 6.5" GLH woofers and two of the same high performance
silk dome tweeters found in the front speakers. The 6200 SR utilizes dual
5.25-inch GLH drivers and two of the same tweeters as described above.
The surround speakers can be switched between Dipole and Bipole opera-
tion. These settings are explained on page 10,"Dipole/Bipole Operation of
the SR Speakers. "
NOTE: Although the speakers in the Atlantic Technology Systems
8200 and 6200 are acoustically and cosmetically matched to each
other for ideal results, they may also be used with other Atlantic Tech-
nology components and a wide variety of speakers from other manu-
facturers with satisfying results.
Placement
Speaker/room interactions have a huge impact on the sound of the system.
Moving the speakers just a little can make a dramatic difference in what you
hear.Remember that the best acoustic placement of the speakers will vary
from room to room.Use the following placement guidelines (see page 5) as
a starting point.But also feel free to experiment.In fact,it may be beneficial
to hook up the front LR and surround speakers with some extra wire and
to simply drape the wire across the floor before installing the speakers per-
manently.This will allow you the opportunity to move the speakers around
easily so you can find the best sonic and visual locations.
Home Theater
Remember that the primary goal of a good home theater is not to make you
believe that you are in a movie theater. It's to make you believe you're in the
movie. For a home theater system, place the LR speakers on either side of
the television.The three front channel speakers (LR and C) are magnetically
shielded so they will not interfere with your television picture. The left and
right front speakers should be far enough apart (6 to 10 feet is usually best)
that you get a good stereo"image"when they are playing alone,but not so far
apart that the sound seems to be disembodied from the TV,distracting you
from the picture. When using a center channel speaker,a wider separation of
the left and right front speakers is usually possible.You may chose to"toe"the
LR speakers in,aiming them approximately at the prime listening position.
This can be particularly useful if the front LR speakers are fairly far apart.
IMPORTANT NOTE Try to keep the LR and C tweeters approximately
centered at or aimed at ear level when seated. This is because the align-
ment of the drivers on the front panel results in limited vertical spread
of the mid and high frequency sounds to reduce floor and ceiling reflec-
tions. If the speakers are too high or too low however, you will miss a
significant portion of the upper middle and high range elements of the
sound. This alignment of the drivers provides enhanced horizontal spread
of the sound making for a much better sound experience for a group of
listeners and reducing the need to sit in a precise "sweet spot."
Satellite Placement Using
PedWoofers Under the LR Speakers
If you are using Atlantic Technology PedWoofers under the satellite speakers
follow the guidelines above for LR placement. Placing the woofers out in the
room,away from reflective surfaces is typically not ideal for their performance.
However, the PedWoofers have been designed to produce significant bass
energy and,when combined with the advanced controls provided on the power
amplifier,they can typically provide excellent high-level bass performance.For
information about placing subwoofers independently of the satellite speakers
please see your Atlantic Technology PedWoofer/subwoofer manual.
The center channel speaker should be placed directly above or below your tele-
vision.It is important that the speaker is centered on the screen,not off to the
side.The pivoting design of the 8200 C and 6200 C allows you to tilt them up
or down so that the speaker points most directly at the listening position.
Surround Effects and Speaker Locations
The 6200 SR and 8200 SR's shape allows great flexibility in placement.Due
to their switchable Dipole/Bipole design, it's possible to place the speakers
almost anywhere within the rear third of the room and get good results.
However,the best location for surround speakers is straight out to the sides
of,or slightly behind the primary listening area,approximately 1-2 feet above
seated ear level to no less than 2 feet down from the ceiling.
As noted above,the surround speakers (as opposed to the back speaker(s)
in a 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1 channel system, see below) are primarily intended to
re-create the ambient sounds taking place in the movie scene. Therefore,
throughout most of a movie or TV program you may not be consciously
aware of output from these speakers.In other words,don't worry if you aren't
hearing the surround speakers. Please try to avoid the trap of turning the
surrounds up and up so that you hear them most of the time.The result will
be a much less believable surround experience.
