User manual REVEL M8 REV 0

[. . . ] Since the speakers are magnetically shielded, you can place them without worrying about the field distorting a CRT monitor. For surround-channel use, place speakers on the included brackets or on bookshelves alongside the listening position. Final placement depends on room acoustics, availability of space, and your listening preference (Figure 2). [. . . ] Also, consult the owner's manuals that were included with your amplifier or receiver to confirm connection procedures. Observe polarities when making speaker connections, as shown in Figure 4. Connect each + terminal on the back of the amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each speaker. DO NOT reverse polarities (+ to ­ or ­ to +) when making connections. Be certain that positive and negative wire strands are completely isolated to avoid short circuits that may damage your equipment. Step One Place bracket against the wall and mark the positions on the wall where you would like to place the mounting screws. Step Two Place the bracket against the wall and fasten three 1-1/2", #10 wood screws through the bracket's screw holes into the wall. If a wall stud is not available, use an appropriate anchor. Step Three Remove rear foot, place the speaker on the bracket and insert the provided 1/4"-20 screw through the bottom of the bracket into the threaded insert on the bottom of the satellite (Figure 3). Turn satellite to desired angle and tighten. ­ + Figure 4: Wiring diagram shows polarity connections for one channel of an audio or home theater system.

Select 110Hz as the crossover frequency for all M8 loudspeakers in the system. 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. Maintenance and Service The satellite enclosure may be cleaned using a soft cloth to remove fingerprints or to wipe off dust. All wiring connections should be inspected and cleaned or remade periodically. The frequency of maintenance depends on the metals involved in the connections, atmospheric conditions and other factors, but once per year is the minimum. If a problem occurs, make sure that all connections are properly made and clean. If a problem exists in one loudspeaker, reverse the connection wires to the left and right speakers. If the problem remains in the same speaker, then the fault is with the loudspeaker. If the problem appears in the opposite speaker, the cause is in another component or cable. If your M8 loudspeaker should ever need service, please contact your local dealer or distributor, or visit www. revelspeakers. com for the location of a service center. 5 Specifications Revel® ConcertaTM M8 Frequency Response (±3dB) Recommended Amplifier Power Range Sensitivity (2. 83V @ 1m, 2 anechoic) Nominal Impedance Crossover Frequency Low-Frequency Drivers LF Extension High-Frequency Driver External Dimensions (H x W x D) Weight (Net) 110Hz ­ 21kHz 10 ­ 125 Watts 88dB 8 Ohms 2-Way high-order at 2. 2kHz Dual 3" (76mm) woofers with Micro Ceramic Composite (MCC) cones ­3dB @ 110Hz, ­6dB @ 100Hz, ­10dB @ 90Hz 1" (25mm) tweeter with waveguide and Micro Ceramic Composite (MCC) dome 11-5/8" x 4-1/4" x 4-1/2" (296mm x 107mm x 113mm) 3. 45 lb (1. 6kg) 4. 20 4. 45 4. 45 11. 64 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 standards: 2. 8 EN 61000-6-3:2001 EN 61000-6-1:2001 4. 5 2. 6 Laurent Rault Harman Consumer Group, Inc.
