Inspecting

For Damage

Examine each unit carefully for signs of shipping damage. If there is any damage, do not install the system. Consult the store where you purchased the system or call the appropriate Creative Technology, Ltd. support group at the number listed at the end of this publication. Save the shipping carton and inserts in case you have to transport the system later.

All the items shown in the illustration should be included. If anything is missing, notify the retailer.

Important Notes

These instructions assume you have a DVD player with a coaxial Dolby Digital (AC-3) output (for example, the Creative Labs PC-DVD Encore). These instructions also assume your sound card supports processing of DirectSound® 3D, including front and rear two-channel minijack line outputs (like Creative Labs Sound Blaster PCI series or Sound Blaster Live! series). Sound Blaster Live! owners should utilize the exclusive Digital DIN

connection, to hear the clearest digital audio available. Conventional 2- channel sound cards such as Sound Blaster 16 or the Sound Blaster AWE series can also be used with DTT2500 Digital, but these cards will not provide rear channel output when playing games using DirectSound® 3D or its derivatives.

One pair of satellites has cables that are 3 meters (9 feet) long. The other pair has cables that are 5 meters

(16 feet) long. Typically, the two satellites with the longer cables will be used on the surround channels, but the satellites are otherwise identical. If you need extra cable length for the front channel satellites, use the pair with the longer cables instead.

All the speakers are magnetically shielded, but the subwoofer is not.
