ProCenter Shielded Center Channel Speaker

Your Definitive Technology ProCenter is a compact high definition loudspeaker system designed for use in audio/video systems of the highest quality. Because of its low profile, wide range, high power handling and articulate clarity, it is ideal for use as a center channel in conjunction with Dolby Surround Sound ProLogic and Dolby Digital AC-3 decoding.

Connecting Your Loudspeakers

It is critical for proper performance that all speakers (left, right and center) be connected in proper phase. Note that one terminal on each speaker (the +) is colored red and the other (the -) is colored black. Please make certain that you connect the red (+) terminal on each speaker to the red (+) terminal of its channel on your amplifier or receiver, and the black (-) terminal to the black (-) terminal. It is essential that all speakers be connected in the same way to the amplifier (in phase). If you experience a great lack of bass, it is likely that one speaker is out of phase with the others.

Usually if distortion is heard when the speakers are being driven at loud levels, it is caused by driving (turning up) the amplifier too loud and not driving the speakers with more power than they can handle. Remember, most amplifiers put out their full rated power well before the volume control is turned all the way up! If your speakers distort when you play them loud, turn down the amplifier or get a bigger one.

Speaker Break-In

Your ProCenter should sound good right out of the box; however, an extended break-in period of 20-40 hours or more of playing is required to reach full perfor- mance capability. Break-in allows the suspensions to work in and results in fuller bass, a more open “blossoming” midrange and smoother high frequency reproduction.

Positioning the ProCenter in Your Room

For Center Channel Use

Your ProCenter should be placed on above or below the TV.

ProCenter Vertical Angle Adjustment

Your ProCenter loudspeaker has a simple built-in devise which allows you to adjust the vertical angle of the speaker. Please note that on the rear/center/underside of the speaker there is a foot. When you set the speaker down, the speaker will ealn back and rest on the foot. By varying how far you screw in the foot, you can adjust the vertical angle of the speaker. We suggest that you aim the speaker so that it aims directly towards the height of the listeners’ ears.

Wall Mounting the ProCenter

Your ProCenter has two threaded inserts on the back, which can be used with a pair of optional ProMounts to mount the ProCenter on the wall. Use toggle bolts or other

2similar fasteners to hold the ProMount to the wall. Do not use unanchored screws in the wall.
