PRO-X44AV 2-WAY DIE-CAST MINI SPEAKER

Your RCA PRO-X44AV 2-Way Die-Cast Mini Speaker is small in size, but not in sound! Its high-compliance woofer accurately tracks signals to provide outstanding bass, while the balance drive tweeter produces crisp, detailed highs.

Your speaker’s acoustic design matches the woofer and tweeter with the enclosure and damping materials, resulting in amazingly smooth and broad frequency response.

Your PRO-X44AV can handle up to 30 watts of power. The speaker is magnetically shielded so you can safely place it next to your television or monitor.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

Location and position are vital to your speaker’s performance. The ideal location is on a table or shelf positioned near the corner of a room. A shelf attached to a wooden wall (or some other acoustically hard surface) greatly reinforces the speaker’s sound quality. If possible, place the front edge of the speaker flush with the front edge of the shelf. For the best sound, avoid floor locations; floor coverings can absorb much of the sound.

We recommend that you play a familiar, wide-range recording and experiment

with speaker placement until you find the location that provides the best sound for your needs.

If you are using another speaker with your PRO-X44AV, for the best stereo image, the distance between your speakers should be about equal to the distance from the main listening area to a point halfway between the speakers.

If you must place your speakers farther apart, turn them slightly inward.

You can mount your PRO-X44AV on a wall, under a shelf, or on a ceiling using optional speaker brackets (available at your local RadioShack store). Or, you can use a 1/4-inch wall-mount speaker bracket. Follow the instructions provided with the brackets.
