Speaker Break-In

Your ProCinema 600 System 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 performance 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 Your Speakers in Your Room

It is important that some simple set-up recommendations be followed in order to assure optimum performance in your room. Please remember that although these recommendations are usually valid, all rooms and listening set-ups are somewhat unique, so do not be afraid to experiment with the speakers. Remember, whatever sounds best to you is correct.

Positioning the ProMonitor 600s in Your Room

When used as front or side/rear surround speakers, the ProMonitor 600s may be used on a stand, a shelf, or mounted on the wall or ceiling. If you place the speakers on a shelf, try to place them forward on the shelf with the front of the speaker even with the front of the shelf rather than pushed back toward the rear of the shelf. If you wish to use a stand we strongly recommend the Definitive ProStand 60/80/600/800 which was designed to be used with these speakers in order to achieve the highest level of performance as well as the most attractive styling combination. Wall mount- ing can be accomplished either by using the keyhole mount which is built into the speakers or with the ProMount 80/800 pivoting wall mount which is available sepa- rately. Placement close to the wall will increase the bass and low midrange output while placement further from the wall will decrease output in these ranges and at the same time yield a somewhat more open and three-dimensional sound. As with other aspects of set-up and adjustment we encourage experimentation in order to achieve perfect sound in your particular room.

Using the Built-In Keyhole Wall Mount

Your ProMonitor 600 also has a built-in keyhole wall-mount on the back.

Use a toggle bolt or other similar very well anchored fastener in the wall to hold the screw which the keyhole mount will hang on. Do not use an unanchored screw in the wall. Please note that there is an optional pivoting wall mount available which may be purchased separately.

Positioning Your ProMonitor 600 Front Speakers

Your two ProMonitor 600 speakers which you are using as front speakers (please note all ProMonitor 600s are exactly the same) should usually be placed 6 to 8 feet apart and kept away from side walls and corners if possible. A good rule of thumb is to place the speakers separated by one half the length of the wall they are positioned along, and each speaker one quarter the length of the wall behind them away from the side walls.

Speakers may be angled in toward the listening position or pointed straight ahead. Note: Angling the speakers in so that they point directly at the listeners will result in more detail and greater clarity.
