User manual REVEL LCR8 REV 0

[. . . ] Please read this owner's manual completely before connecting and operating the LCR8 all-in-one left, center, right loudspeaker. Optimum performance is dependent upon following these instructions, as well as those in the owner's manuals of associated components in your home theater system. Save these instructions for future reference. Planning Your System Before deciding where to best place your speakers, survey your room and study Figure 1. [. . . ] Consult the owner's manuals included with your amplifier or receiver for connection and operation procedureÏs. One channe Surround Modes When using the system in a Dolby® Digital or DTS® home theater system, make sure the receiver or processor is set to "Small" for the front left, center, and front right loudspeakers. When using the LCR8 in a Dolby Pro Logic® home theater system, make sure the receiver's center channel mode is set to "Normal. " Some receivers/processors offer a choice of crossover frequencies. Select 110Hz as the crossover frequency for the front left, center, and front right loudspeakers. Some Dolby Digital-equipped receivers/processors offer different setup options for each source or surround mode, e. g. , CD-stereo, DVD, Dolby, Pro Logic. In each case, follow your equipment's instructions to ensure that the subwoofer output is turned on and that the speakers are set to "Small" or to a crossover frequency of 110Hz in each mode. ­ + Figure 4: This example shows how to connect bare wires to the terminals. Banana plugs may also be inserted directly into the rear of the connector. Inset bare ends; tighten terminals. Maintenance and Service When needed, use a soft cloth to remove any fingerprints or to wipe off dust. If your LCR8 loudspeaker should ever need service, please contact your local dealer or distributor, or visit www. revelspeakers. com for the location of a service center. Wiring and Polarity The LCR8 speaker has gold-plated terminals that can accept bare wire. To ensure proper polarity, connect each + terminal on the back of the amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each speaker, as shown in Figure 4. See the owner's manuals that were included with your amplifier or receiver to confirm connection procedures. Be sure to connect the left-channel wires to the leftmost terminals, the center-channel wires to the middle terminals, and the right-channel wires to the rightmost terminals. DO NOT reverse polarities (+ to ­ or ­ to +) when making connections. Doing so will degrade the imaging and bass response of the home theater system. After correctly placing and wiring the LCR8 speaker and the rest of your loudspeakers, adjust the levels for all of the channels as recommended by the manufacturer of your receiver/processor. 6 Specifications Revel® ConcertaTM LCR8 Frequency Response (±3dB) Recommended Amplifier Power Range Sensitivity (2. 83V @ 1m, 2 anechoic) Nominal Impedance Crossover Frequency Low-Frequency Drivers LF Extension High-Frequency Drivers External Dimensions (H x W x D) Weight (Net) 110Hz ­ 21kHz 10 ­ 125 Watts (per channel) 88dB 8 Ohms 2-Way high-order at 2. 2kHz Six 3" (76mm) woofers with Micro Ceramic Composite (MCC) cones ­3dB @ 110Hz, ­6dB @ 100Hz, ­10dB @ 90Hz Three 1" (25mm) tweeters with Micro Ceramic Composite (MCC) domes 4-1/4" x 39-15/16" x 4-1/2" (107mm x 1015mm x 113mm) 11. 4 lb (5. 2kg) 39. 97 4. 49 4. 24 Declaration of Conformity We, Harman Consumer Group, Inc. 2, route de Tours 72500 Château du Loir France declare in own responsibility that the product described in this owner's manual is in compliance with technical 39. 68 1. 8 standards: EN 61000-6-3:2001 EN 61000-6-1:2001 . 75 2. 64 9. 15 4. 32 Laurent Rault Harman Consumer Group, Inc.
