We are proud to welcome you as an owner of ENERGY
new ACT Series speaker system.
Please take the time to read all of the instructions contained in this
manual to make certain your system is properly installed and set up
for optimal sound reproduction. Be sure to unpack your system
carefully. Retain the carton and all packing material for future use.
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of ENERGY
technology and high quality manufacturing will allow you to enjoy the most
natural and accurate music reproduction for many years. The advice offered
in this manual is aimed at helping you maximize and maintain peak
performance, and therefore, your listening satisfaction. Please take the time
to read all of the instructions contained in this manual to make certain your
system is properly installed and functioning correctly.
BREAK-IN PERIOD
We strongly advise that you resist the temptation to play your ENERGY
speakers loudly until they have been properly broken in. It's important to
ensure the drivers have had time to loosen up a bit. This process should
last approximately 50 hours. This can be easily be done by putting your
compact disc player on Repeat mode, while playing a CD with a wide
dynamic range at normal listening levels.
SPEAKER AND SUBWOOFER
PLACEMENT
Front Speaker Placement (Diagram 1)
For best stereo imaging, the left and right speakers should be the same
distance from their respective side walls. If the distance from one speaker to
the listener is very different from the other it can affect the soundstage or
stereo imaging. Therefore, the ideal position is having the speakers
equidistant to the listener.
A general guideline for speaker placement is to set up the space between
speaker and listener at approximately 1-1/2 times the distance between the
speakers. For example, if the speakers are placed a minimum of 6-feet
(1.8m) apart (the absolute minimum), the best seating position would be
9-feet (2.4m) away.
Center Channel Placement (Diagram 1)
A center channel can be expected to reproduce as much as 60% of a
movie's soundtrack, most of which is dialogue. In order to maintain the
effect of voices emanating from the actor's mouth, the center speaker
should be centrally located between the left and right main channels and
placed above or below the television. Be sure that the center speaker's
front baffle is flush with the front face of the television or cabinet to
maximize dispersion.
Surround Speaker Placement (Diagram 1)
The surround speakers can be positioned in a variety of locations. The
surround placement is usually dictated by the room, where the walls and
room boundaries happen to be, and where speaker cable can be easily run.
The most common surround speaker locations are the following:
Side walls: For best results in side wall mounting applications, position the
speakers adjacent to and slightly behind the primary listening area at a
height of approximately 6 feet.
Rear walls: For best results mounting on a rear wall, position the speakers
so they flank the main listening area and point towards the front of the
room. They should be raised to a height of approximately 6 feet and
should ideally have a space of 6 feet between them.
Ceiling Mount: The ACT speaker bracket is designed for ceiling mounting
as well, and this can solve many installation problems. Place the speakers
behind and angled down towards the seating areas. Ceiling mounting is
common when utilizing a rear center channel speaker.
NOTE: The single ACT satellite speaker is available at your local
authorized Energy retailer if you wish to add a rear center channel
