connections: red (+) terminals on the amplifier to red

Look carefully at the wires you are using and note that one of the wires in each pair is marked by either a different color, printing, ridges, or a thread inter- twined with the wire strands. Conventionally, the marked wire is connected to the red (+) terminal.

Whether your are connecting a complete System 220, or adding one speaker compo- nent to your present system, the wiring should look like the diagram in Figure 2. Before turning on the amplifier, be certain that no stray wire strands are touching across the two terminals as this might damage your amplifier.

Finally, check the polarity of your front speakers by listening to some music. If the sound seems hollow, spread out and has weak bass, recheck your connections for proper polarity and reverse the connections if necessary.

224 SR, 223 C, 221 LR specifications

Atlantic Technology has made a name for itself in the audio industry by delivering high-performance speakers that excel in both home theater and music applications. Among the standout products are the 221 LR, 223 C, and 224 SR models, which together create a powerful and immersive sound experience.

The Atlantic Technology 221 LR is a pair of compact left and right speakers designed for optimal versatility in smaller spaces. One of its main features is the high-quality 6.5-inch woofer that allows for deep bass reproduction while ensuring clarity in the mid and high frequencies. The 221 LR also includes a 1-inch silicon dome tweeter, providing smooth and refined high-frequency response. The speakers are engineered to deliver a frequency response range that is both well-balanced and extended, making them suitable for various genres of music as well as movie soundtracks.

In the center of this formidable trio is the 223 C, a dedicated center channel speaker that enhances dialogue clarity for home theater setups. The 223 C shares a similar design aesthetic with the 221 LR and incorporates dual 5.25-inch woofers to handle the critical mid-range frequencies where vocals are primarily situated. This model also features a 1-inch tweeter, ensuring that dialogue remains articulate and engaging even in the most demanding scenes. Its design helps integrate seamlessly with other speakers in the lineup, creating a cohesive sound stage.

Completing the setup is the 224 SR, an advanced surround speaker that is engineered for both dipole and bipole configurations, allowing for versatile placement in various types of rooms. The 224 SR features a pair of 5.25-inch woofers and a dual tweeter array, resulting in an expansive sound field that enhances the immersive experience of movies and games. The surround speaker's unique design ensures a wide dispersion of sound, making it ideal for capturing the ambient effects required in a surround sound environment.

All three models utilize Atlantic Technology's proprietary technologies to maximize audio performance and enhance listener enjoyment. Their construction ensures durability and longevity, while the elegant finishes allow for easy integration into any décor. Together, the 221 LR, 223 C, and 224 SR form a complete audio solution that is both high in quality and low on compromise, making them an excellent choice for discerning audiophiles and home theater enthusiasts alike.
