COMPACT THE ATER SPE A K ER S Model EF50 SE R I E S OW N ER’S M A N UA L
Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of EMP Tek compact theater speakers! Your speakers are the result of many years of research and development. This manual contains setup recommendations and specifications for the EF50, EF50C and EF50T compact theater speakers. It is highly recommended you thoroughly read through the material contained in this manual before connecting your speakers.
Break In Period Allow several hours of listening time for your speakers to adequately break-in. During this period, the driver suspensions will loosen, the result will be an increase in bass, improved definition, and increased clarity and detail. Care and Cleaning To maintain the speaker’s high quality appearance, it is recommended you regularly use a dry or slightly-damp soft cloth to keep the exterior of your speakers free from dust, lint or dirt.
Features (continued) The EF50 Series enclosures have a narrow profile to minimize the impact the cabinet has on the audio signal. The speakers virtually disappear, leaving only a wide, deep sound stage with pinpoint imaging typical of much higher priced speakers. A special damping material is also used inside the cabinet to dampen the internal standing waves which helps the speakers provide a true-to-life experience. The EF50 Series have removable faceplates.
System Setup (continued) Surround Channel Speakers The surround channel speakers should be placed slightly above and behind, and/or to the sides of, the listening position. For best performance, try to keep the listening position centered between the surround channel speakers. You may want to experiment with angling the surround speakers either towards or away from the listening position (depending on your décor and your room’s furnishings) to obtain better sound quality.
Attaching Speaker Wires When using a banana jack to attach speaker wires to the binding post terminals, insert the speaker wire into the banana jack. Next insert the banana jack into the hole provided in the top of the binding posts. Repeat for the other speaker wire(s) as necessary. If not using a banana jack, simply loosen the binding nut to allow the hole in the side of the terminal to become exposed.
