1 each Subwoofer

CENTER AND SATELLITE SPEAKERS Your five surround speakers consist of 2 matching front satellites, 2 matching rear satellites and a shielded center channel. Each piece is clearly marked on the rear label for correct placement.

SUBWOOFER Your Jensen Subwoofer delivers powerful, deep bass, for a natural, life-like sonic experi- ence. Please follow the directions in this manual to achieve the best performance from your system.

The hook-up and operation of the Subwoofer is the same for a Home Theater surround sound system or a stereo music system. The Subwoofer has its own built-in amplifier, so it works with any sound system. The Subwoofer’s own crossover network sends bass-only signals to the Subwoofer’s built-in amplifier. This lets the Subwoofer add extra bass to the output from your other speakers.

Home Theater Surround System Diagram

Locate the Center Channel on top of or under the television or monitor. One of the Front Satellite Speakers should be located on either side of the television.

Your Jensen Subwoofer must sit on the floor, preferably in a corner, to work properly. The floor and corner are actually a part of the Subwoofer’s design.

Place your Subwoofer in the corner nearest your system’s electronic components to keep wire or cable runs short.

NOTE: Do not locate the front satellites closer that 12 inches from the television. The magnetic field from them can interfere with the television’s picture. The Center Channel is shielded, allowing it to be located immediately next to the television without interference. Locate the rear 2 satellites behind or to the side of the main listening location. (see Surround System Diagram).

CONNECTING THE SURROUND SPEAKERS Your Receiver will have clearly marked terminals for connecting the Satellite and Center Channel Speakers. The most common type of connection is spring loaded. Press down on the tab and insert the stripped wire tips into the opening. IMPORTANT: Always connect the red (+) terminal on the Receiver to the red (+) terminal on the corresponding Speaker i.e. Front Left. Connect the corresponding black (-) terminal on the Receiver to the black (-) terminal on the same Speaker. Continue until all of the speakers have been connected in this manner.

HOW TO PLACE YOUR SYSTEM COMPONENTS

The optimum listening position is at the tip of the so-called “stereo triangle”. The equilibrium between the right and left stereo channels is best in this position, providing the most balanced and realistic sound reproduction.

Install the speakers at least 12” away from your television set to avoid interference to the TV picture by the magnetic fields. This restriction does not apply for the center speaker, which is magnetically shielded so that it can be placed in the direct vicinity of the television set. Some other speakers are also shielded, please check the specifications to determine which speakers are shielded.
