All products use efficient drivers for maximum stereo output with minimal amplifier power.
PLANNING YOUR SYSTEM STEREO SPEAKER PLACEMENT... Before deciding where to put your RS Series bookshelf speakers, survey your room and think about placement, keeping the following points in mind: ◆ These speakers are designed for placement on surfaces such as bookshelves, a low table, or speaker stands. ◆ For best results, try placing the speakers closer together than the distance to the listening area. ◆ Position each speaker so that the top of the cabinet is between 25 and 50 inches above the floor.
PLANNING YOUR SYSTEM (CONT ’ D) HOME THEATER PLACEMENT... RS Series bookshelf speakers are also suitable for use in reproducing sound from front left, center, and front right channels, as well as rear surrounds (see Figure 2). For front channel use, place one RS Series speaker on the left and another on the right (on bookshelves or pedestals) along either side of the television monitor.
WIRING THE SYSTEM TURN OFF ALL POWER... IMPORTANT: Make sure all equipment is turned off before making any connections. For speaker connections, use #18 gauge speaker wire (or #16 for runs over 25 feet) with polarity coding. The side of the wire with a ridge or other coding is usually considered negative polarity (i.e., ). - NOTE: If desired, consult your local Infinity dealer about speaker wire and connection options.
FINAL ADJUSTMENTS Check the speakers for playback first by setting the system volume control for a minimum level, and then by applying power to your audio system. Play a favorite music or video segment and increase the system volume control to a comfortable level. NOTE: You should hear balanced audio reproduction across the entire frequency spectrum. If not, check all wiring connections or consult the Authorized Infinity Dealer where you purchased the system for more help.
