Mounting

The Compact Theater One LR and SR speakers can be mounted in a variety of ways:

On speaker stands Atlantic Technology speaker stands provide an ideal height (29" above the floor) for most rooms. They are available in black or white. Speaker stands from other manufacturers may be used, but should be of approximately the same height (29" to the base of the speaker). Threaded inserts on the backs of the speakers allow for secure mounting on stands designed for these types of connections.

On the wall To mount your speakers on a wall, we have installed metal key-hole brackets on the back of the LR and SR speakers. Be sure to use a strong screw whose head and shaft will fit within the keyhole opening and slot. Also be sure to drive the screw well into a stud or use a mounting device (such as a molly-bolt) that is capable of holding the weight of the speaker. Never simply drive a nail or screw into a sheet rock or other wall materials. Always follow the above guidelines for safe speaker mounting.

The threaded 1/4" x 20 insert located on the back of the SR and LR enclosures can also be used to mount the speakers to a wall using any commonly available “ball joint” style mount that includes 1/4" x 20 mounting hardware. Be sure to use a mount that will hold the weight of the speaker and follow all the manufacturer’s directions concerning appropriate hardware and mounting methods.

IMPORTANT! – Listening Levels and Power Handling

The power recommendation for these speakers assumes that you will not operate your amplifier/receiver in a way that produces high levels of distortion. A moderately powered amplifier driven beyond its intended capacity can and will damage even rugged speakers like the Compact Theater One system. This type of damage is easily identifiable through examination of the damaged speaker’s voice coil and is not covered by the warranty.

The Compact Theater One System will play very loudly when provided with enough clean power to do so. Again, consult your dealer or Atlantic Technology for additional information.

Care and Feeding of Your Speakers

Clean your speaker cabinets using a soft cloth moistened with a mild, non-abrasive glass cleaner being careful not to wet the edges of the cabinet. Also, be careful not to get any cleaning fluids on the driver cones or domes. It may be best to dampen the cloth with the cleaner and then wipe the speakers. Brush the non-removable grilles with a clean soft brush or a lint free cloth to clean them. Do not use a vacuum, as the combination of hard vacuum attachments and suction are likely to cause damage to the drivers.

Avoid placing your speakers in direct sunlight or near a source of heat that may, over time, damage the finish.

Important: SaveYour Boxes! If you can do so, save the cartons, packing pieces, and plastic bags that came with your speakers.They will be useful in case you move or have to ship your loudspeakers for any reason. In any case, save all packing materials until you are certain that the systems have suffered no damage in shipment. If you find such damage, either visible or internal, contact your dealer immediately for the proper return procedure.
