Setting Bass and Treble Controls on Your Receiver or Ampliﬁer

Normally we recommend that you set the Bass and Treble controls on ﬂat or 0 dB. This will give you the most linear and natural sound. If you want more bass, raise the subwoofer’s Level control on your PowerMonitor, keeping in mind that even a little turn of the knob can make a big difference in the sound. Also, if your ampliﬁer or receiver has a graphic equalizer, we recommend that you leave it ﬂat. The rea- son for this is that we have spoken with many consumers about what

they thought were improperly sounding speakers when in fact the prob- lem was misadjusted tone controls. When in doubt, leave them ﬂat; this almost always sounds the best.

The PowerMonitor Home Theater System

A complete PowerMonitor Home Theater System combines a pair of PowerMonitors with a perfectly matched Deﬁnitive center channel speaker (ideally, one with a built-in powered sub, such as a C/L/R 2300, C/L/R 2500, C/L/R 3000 or a PowerMonitor), perfectly matched Deﬁnitive rear and/or side surround speakers, and in many cases a sep- arate subwoofer for the LFE channel. This superb system offers the ultimate in-home theater performance with all decoding technologies. Since the PowerMonitors already have powerful subwoofers built in, no additional subwoofers are needed, although certainly an additional LFE channel subwoofer will add even more bass impact, especially in larger rooms. Remember, to achieve proper blending and full perfor- mance, it is essential to use only Deﬁnitive speakers to complete your home theater system.
