Mounting and connecting tips
Mounting
alternatives
The XTZ 80 SATELLITE can be mounted both on a wall, on
stands or on a shelf.
The bass reflex gates are placed on the rear, so when
mounting the speaker near a wall you should use the two
supplied bass plugs in the bass reflex gates in order to avoid
blowing sound.
Connect using
the correct
phase
Always connect using the correct phase, from the +-pole on
the amplifier to the +-pole on the loudspeaker and
corresponding for minus (-).
If you by accident connect the other way,
there is no risk of damage. However, the
sound will not be correct, especially in the
lower frequencies.
Working range
When connected normally you utilize the whole frequency
range of the loudspeaker. If you wish the bass tones only to
be reproduced by a powered subwoofer, thus that the center
speaker should only reproduce midrange and treble tones,
you should make sure that the amplifier removes the bass
tones. On modern amplifiers/receivers you normally have
the possibility of setting the loudspeaker as small or big. If
present, you should set them to small.
Overload
At high load during extensive time periods, there is always
the risk of overloading the driver and amplifier.
All loudspeakers have a limited patience for
high power, so be careful not to play
extremely loud and not to increase trebble
or bass settings to much.
By increasing the bass or treble from 0 to
max you will increase the power by about 16
times.
The initial
playing time
It takes about 50 to 100 hour of initial playing time, for the
driver to sound optimal. During this time, the speaker may
be normally used.
