Consult

for

Powering
the
Active
Subwoofer
Your
CS
Speaker contains abuilt-in, powered woofer designed
to
extend the
frequency response
and
dynamic range of the center channel. Do
not
connect
the
Low
Level
input
to your receiver's
LFE
output. The
CS
speakers are
not
designed to be adedicated subwoofer.
Your
CS
speaker
must
be plugged
into
an
electrical socket of
the
appropriate
voltage
(as
indicated
on
the
back ofyour unit) using
the
electrical cord which
you have attached
to
the
back of
the
speaker. The
CS
Speaker has aspecial circuit
which automatically turns
the
powered woofer section
on
when
asignal
is
fed to
the
loudspeaker
and
does
not
require
an
on-off switch. The
LED
on
the
back
panel will light
up
when
asignal
is
sensed
and
the
amplifier turns on. After
the
cessation of asignal, it
may
take
up
to
an
hour
for
the
amplifier
to
actually
tum
off. In some instances, because of stray radio signals
(RF)
in your area,
the
LED
may
not
tum
off. However, this is
nothing
to be concerned about
as
the
amplifier draws little power
when
at idle.
Setting Your

Your
CS
Speaker has abass level control which
allows you to
tune
the
output
level of

Troubleshootin
If
you experience
any
difficulties with your
CS
Center Channel loudspeaker, try
the
suggestions below.
If
you still have problems, contact your Definitive
Technology Authorized Dealer for assistance.
1.
Audible
distortion
when
the
speaker
is
playing
at
loud levels
is
caused
by turning
up
your receiver or amplifier louder
than
the receiver or the
speaker
is
capable of playing. Most receivers
and
amplifiers
put
out
their
full-rated power well before
the
volume control
is
turned all
the
way up, so
the position of
the
volume control
is
apoor indicator of its power limit.
If
your speakers distort
when
you play
them
loud,
tum
the
volume down!
2.
If
you experience a
lack
of
bass, it
is
likely
that
one speaker
is
out
of phase
(polarity) with
the
other speakers in the system
and
needs
to
be rewired with
closer attention
to
connecting positive to positive
and
negative to negative
on
both
channels. Most speaker wire has some indicator (such
as
color-
coding, ribbing or writing)
on
one
of the two conductors
to
help you main-
tain consistency.
It
is
essential
to
connect
both
speakers
to
the amplifier in
the
same way (in phase).
3.
Make sure all your system interconnects
and
power cords are solidly in place.
4.
Should you hear
hum
or
noise
coming from your speakers, try plugging
the speakers' power cords
into
adifferent
AC
circuit
than
your amplifier.
S.
The system has sophisticated
internal
protection
circuitry.
If
for some
reason
the
protection circuitry trips,
tum
off your system
and
wait
five
minutes before trying
the
system again.
If
the
speakers' built-in amplifier
should over-heat,
the
system will
tum
off until
the
amplifier cools down
and
resets.
6.
Check
to
be sure
that
your power cord has
not
been damaged.
7.
Check
that
no
foreign objects or liquid has entered
the
speaker cabinet.
8.
If
you
cannot
get the subwoofer driver
to
tum
on
or if
no
sound
comes out
and
you are sure
the
system
is
set
up
properly, please bring the loudspeaker
to your Definitive Technology Authorized Dealer for assistance; call first.

full-rated power well before
the
volume control
is
turned all
the
way up, so
the position of
the
volume control
is
apoor indicator of its power limit.
If
your speakers distort
when
you play
them
loud,
tum
the
volume down!
2.
If
you experience a
lack
of
bass, it
is
likely
that
one speaker
is
out
of phase
(polarity) with
the
other speakers in the system
and
needs
to
be rewired with
closer attention
to
connecting positive to positive
and
negative to negative
on
both
channels. Most speaker wire has some indicator (such
as
color-
coding, ribbing or writing)
on
one
of the two conductors
to
help you main-
tain consistency.
It
is
essential
to
connect
both
speakers
to
the amplifier in
the
same way (in phase).
3.
Make sure all your system interconnects
and
power cords are solidly in place.
4.
Should you hear
hum
or
noise
coming from your speakers, try plugging
the speakers' power cords
into
adifferent
AC
circuit
than
your amplifier.
S.
The system has sophisticated
internal
protection
circuitry.
If
for some
reason
the
protection circuitry trips,
tum
off your system
and
wait
five
minutes before trying
the
system again.
If
the
speakers' built-in amplifier
should over-heat,
the
system will
tum
off until
the
amplifier cools down
and
resets.
6.
Check
to
be sure
that
your power cord has
not
been damaged.
7.
Check
that
no
foreign objects or liquid has entered
the
speaker cabinet.
8.
If
you
cannot
get the subwoofer driver
to
tum
on
or if
no
sound
comes out
and
you are sure
the
system
is
set
up
properly, please bring the loudspeaker
to your Definitive Technology Authorized Dealer for assistance; call first.
