INSTALLATION

Using the Adjustable Mount

For optimum performance the Theater must be tilted on its stand towards the main listening position and directed towards the audiences ears (see figure 3). After you have placed your Theater in its final location, loosen the 2 knobs located on the stand arm, pivot the Theater towards the main listening position, and then re-tighten the knobs.

Installation Options

On the Television

If your television provides a wide, level and stable platform, the shielded Theater can be placed directly on top of the television (see figure 3). For this option we recommend installation of the rubber bumper feet.

On the Wall

The adjustable mount (stand) allows you to mount the Theater on the wall (see figures 3 and “Mounting the Theater On A Wall,” pages 8–10). If hanging the Theater on the wall is the best placement for your system, the adjustable mount (stand) will allow you to tilt the Theater towards the listening position.

On the Floor

Placing the Theater on the floor will position it too low to blend with the front speakers. (see figure 3). If placing the Theater on the floor is the best placement for your system, the adjustable mount (stand) will allow you to tilt the Theater towards the listening position. For this option we recommend installation of the rubber bumper feet.

WARNING! Installation other than that described in the body of this document requires specific documentation from MartinLogan.

Rubber Bumper Feet

If you are using the Theater on top of your television, or setting it on any type of surface, we recommend installing the 5 rubber bumper feet included with the Theater.

Rubber Bumper Feet Installation Instructions:

1.Prepare a surface to work on by laying down a towel or large soft cloth on top of a large flat surface.

2.Securely tighten the 2 knobs on the theater stand arm, making sure the Theater cabinet is level with the stand.

3.Turn the Theater upside down so that the bottom of the stand is pointing up.

4.Insert the 5 rubber bumper feet in the 5 outer holes (see figure 2).

Center Channel speaker specifications

The MartinLogan Center Channel speaker is a sophisticated audio component designed to deliver a superior listening experience, particularly in home theater setups. Known for its exceptional clarity, dynamic range, and immersive soundstage, this speaker exemplifies high-end audio engineering.

One of the key features of the MartinLogan Center Channel speaker is its use of electrostatic technology. This innovative design employs a thin, lightweight diaphragm suspended between two conductive panels.

The electrostatic driver provides a unique sound reproduction that immerses the listener in a rich auditory experience, making dialogues crisp and precise.

In addition to its electrostatic driver, the MartinLogan Center Channel speaker typically includes advanced woofers that complement the high-frequency performance. These woofers are engineered to handle lower frequencies effectively, ensuring a balanced sound profile. The integration of these technologies results in a seamless blend of highs and lows, allowing for a full-spectrum audio experience.

The speaker also features a precision-engineered cabinet designed to minimize resonance and reduce colorations. This construction ensures that the sound produced is true to the original recording, preserving the nuances of music and film soundtracks. The cabinet is usually finished to high standards, making it a visually appealing addition to any home theater setup.

Another important characteristic of the MartinLogan Center Channel speaker is its adjustable crossover settings. This allows users to tailor the speaker's performance to fit their specific room acoustics and personal preferences. By fine-tuning the crossover frequency, enthusiasts can achieve an optimal balance across their entire audio system.

Moreover, the speaker is designed with versatility in mind. Its sleek and aesthetically pleasing design allows it to blend seamlessly with modern home decor, while its robust build quality ensures longevity. Whether used in a dedicated home theater, a living room, or a music listening space, the MartinLogan Center Channel speaker delivers an exceptional audio experience that truly elevates the enjoyment of film and music.
