SPEAKER PLACEMENT S.5 Front Speaker placement For best stereo imaging, the left and right speakers should be the same distance from their respective side walls. If the distance from one speaker to the listener is very different from the other it can affect the soundstage or stereo imaging. Therefore, the ideal position is having the speakers equidistant to the listener. A general guideline for speaker placement is to set up the space between speaker and listener at approximately 1-1/2 times the distance between the speakers. For example, if the speakers are placed a minimum of 6-feet (1.8m) apart (the absolute minimum), the best seating position would be 9-feet (2.4m) away. C.5 Center Channel placement A center channel can be expected to reproduce as much as 60% of a movie's soundtrack, most of which is dialogue. In order to maintain the effect of voices emanating from the actor's mouth, the C.5 should be centrally located between the left and right main channels and placed above or below the television. Be sure that the C.5's front baffle is flush with the front face of the television or cabinet to maximize dispersion. S.5 Surround Speaker placement The surround speakers can be positioned in a variety of locations. The most popular places used for surround speaker placement are the following: Side walls: To maximize the ambient field for side wall mounting, position the speakers adjacent to and slightly behind the primary listening area at a height of approximately 6 feet. Rear walls: To maximize the ambient field for rear wall mounting, position the speakers so they flank the main listening area and point towards the front of the room. They should be raised to a height of approximately 6 feet and should ideally have a space of 6 feet between them. Stand mount: Place the stand mounted speakers slightly behind and on each side of the main listening area. They can be anywhere from 1-6 feet behind or to the side of the main listening area. If you have followed these guidelines, then there should be speakers surrounding your listening area, which will result in the encompassing surround sound feeling. These are basic guidelines and can be tailored to suit the decor of your room. SPEAKER CONNECTIONS CAUTION: Turn off all power in your audio/video system before proceeding with your installation. Not doing so could result in potential damage to the system. Connecting the S.5 and C.5 Speakers On the rear of your athena TECHNOLOGIES® S.5 and C.5 speakers are red and black binding posts. Using standard speaker wire, connect the system one channel at a time, and start your process at the Receiver. Connect the speaker wire from the positive (RED +) terminal on the receiver to the positive (RED+) terminal on the speaker. Connect the negative (BLACK-) terminal on the receiver to the negative (BLACK-) terminal on the speaker. Do this one channel at a time until all of your speakers are connected properly. Be careful to correctly match positive and negative, as well as the correct speaker to the correct channel. See Diagram 1. NOTE: If you inadvertently reverse one of the connections (i.e, red to black), you will notice a severe lack of bass from your system. This is called wiring the system “Out of Phase”. If this occurs, check the wiring and re-connect as necessary. A Note about Speaker wire Contrary to popular belief, not all speaker wire is the same. The speaker wire is the only contact the speaker has with the amplifier. If thin, low quality cable, such as “lamp cord” is used, then the overall sound quality will suffer, particularly in lengths of 10 feet or more. We strongly recommend the use of high quality speaker cable to obtain the best performance from your speakers. athena TECHNOLOGIES® is a registered trademark of Audio Products International Corp. “Dolby”, “Dolby Pro-Logic” and “Dolby Digital Surround” are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories Licensing.
