POWERING ON 1. After all other connections are made, plug the AC power cord (on the back of subwoofer) into a wall outlet. Turn on the speaker system by turning the VOLUME knob on the right satellite until you hear a click sound. An LED will light on the front of the right satellite when the power is ON. Placing Speakers Subwoofer All stereo-encoded information is heard through the satellite speakers. The subwoofer contains no stereo imaging, and its sound is non-directional. As a result, the subwoofer doesn't have to be placed in any particular relationship to the satellites. However, placing the subwoofer on the floor close to a wall or room corner provides better bass efficiency and optimum sound. Note: For your convenience when transporting the subwoofer, or simply to eliminate excess cabling, the power cord can be wrapped around the cord management system behind the subwoofer. As such, it SHOULD be placed at least 2 feet (0. 6m) from TVs, computer monitors, computer hard drives or any other magnetic media (e. g. floppy disks, Zip disks, computer or audio tapes, etc. ). Note: To avoid hearing a popping sound when you turn on your Altec Lansing speaker system, always turn on your audio source first. Volume The VOLUME knob on the right satellite controls the master volume. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the volume and counterclockwise to decrease the volume. Subwoofer Volume The SUB LEVEL knob on the subwoofer controls the volume of the subwoofer. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the subwoofer volume and counterclockwise to decrease the subwoofer volume. Satellite Speakers Arrange the satellite speakers to suit your listening tastes -- from right next to the monitor to as far apart as the speaker cords allow. For optimum sound, satellite speakers should be placed in a left/right configuration, preferably apart and at equal distance from the center of the listening area. This will offer the best stereo imaging and provide the most satisfying results. Note: The satellite speakers ARE magnetically shielded and can be placed close to video displays such as TVs and computer monitors without distorting the image. SFX TechnologyTM Sound Field XpanderTM technology allows your speaker system to deliver a wider stereo image for bigger sound at the touch of a button.
