LOUDSPEAKERS Model Model E3c E3b USER & INSTALLATION MANUAL
Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of EMP E3 Series speakers! Your speakers are the result of many years of research and development dedicated to producing high quality products for home audio systems. This manual contains features, setup recommendations and specifications for the EMP E3 Series speakers. We recommend you thoroughly read through the material contained in this manual before connecting your speakers.
Features The EMP E3 Series speakers have been designed with 3-inch aluminized polygraphite cone woofers to deliver accurate, time-aligned, sonic performance. A powerful magnet, extended voice coil and bumped back plate give the bass/midrange divers high excursion capability. This ensures accurate dynamic reproduction. The center channel drivers are shielded by a steel cup and additional magnet to cancel any stray magnetic field that my cause interference with video equipment such as tube televisions.
Attaching Speaker Wires The E3 Series uses spring-loaded speaker wire terminals to firmly hold either a pin connector or bare speaker wire. To obtain a better connection, it is important to slightly tug on the wires after they have been secured in the terminals. This will cause the small teeth inside the connectors to 'bite' into the wire. It is recommended that you use wire which is color-coded or marked on one side.
Room Setup Suggestions To obtain the best possible sound quality from your E3b and E3c speakers, it is important to place the speakers where they will sound best in your listening room. Your room will influence the balance, imaging and overall sonic quality of the system, so you may want to experiment with speaker placement to determine which location offers the best overall sound for each speaker.
Room Setup Suggestions NOTE: There are several different surround formats available. Dolby Pro-Logic, Pro-Logic II, Dolby Digital and DTS generally have a 5 speaker plus subwoofer requirement. Dolby Digital EX and DTS ES add a center rear speaker. Please consult your audio/video professional to determine which system is best for you and how many speakers you will require.
