Definitive Technology owner manual Subwoofer Placement, Positioning Your ProCenter 600 Speaker

Positioning Your ProMonitor 600 Rear/Side Surround Speakers

The surround speakers may be located on the side or behind the listeners. When used on the sides, take care never to locate the speakers forward of the listeners. The speakers may be located at or above ear level. If the speakers are placed on the rear wall follow the same guidelines given for positioning the front speakers along the wall.

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.

Positioning Your ProCenter 600 Speaker

The ProCenter 600 can be placed either above or below the TV. If you are putting the ProCenter 600 on a shelf or on a TV, try to place it forward with the front of the speaker even with the front of the TV or the front of the shelf.

ProCenter Vertical Angle Adjustment

Your ProCenter 600 loudspeaker has a simple built-in device which allows you to adjust the vertical angle of the speaker. Please note that on the rear/center/under- side of the speaker there is a foot. When you set the speaker down, the speaker will lean back and rest of 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’ ear.

Subwoofer Placement

Your Definitive Technology subwoofer has been designed to operate at frequencies generally below 150 Hz. Because low-frequency information in this range essentially is non-directional, your subwoofer can be located anywhere in your listening room that is most convenient. Also, the continuously variable low-pass filter operates at a very fast roll-off, ensuring great performance wherever you place your subwoofer. There are, however, some general rules that you should bear in mind when locating your subwoofer:

1.For maximum output, the subwoofer should be placed in a corner or against the wall, leaving roughly 2"– 4" clearance between the subwoofer and the wall(s).

2.Corner placement will increase the subwoofer’s efficiency, which in turn will increase your system’s maximum output and improve the dynamic capability of the subwoofer.

3.While one Definitive Technology subwoofer will always sound great, the use of two subwoofers will definitely enhance your system’s performance by providing a smoother and more consistent response pattern. Here, it is recommended that you locate the subwoofers on the same side of the room as the main speaker of the same channel.
