VERIFY TEST TONE...

ADJUST VOICE MATCHING...

Figure 6. The CC-3 includes VOICE MATCHING controls (on the rear) to help match the sound coming from the front left and right speakers.

NOTE: The normal “°” center position is typically the best match when using other Infinity speakers in your home theater system.

After placing and wiring the speakers, turn on audio system power. Follow the instructions (packed with your A/V preamplifier or receiver) to calibrate the Dolby® Pro Logic channels. Most components include a built-in test tone to help you balance the sound levels to all speakers in your system.

During calibration, verify that the CC-3 center-channel speaker reproduces the test tone. If not, check the wiring connections and see the Troubleshooting chart (on the next page) for help.

Once calibration is complete, audition a variety of home theater selections and listen to the sound quality of the dialogue reproduced by the CC-3. If you feel the CC-3 is too bright, you can reduce it by adjusting the HIGH control (see Figure 6) from the normal “°” center position towards the “–” setting. Conversely, if you want more brightness, rotate the level control towards the “+” setting.

In a similar way, adjust the MID control to increase or decrease midrange frequencies.
