PRELUDE

MTS CENTER
The Infinity Prelude MTS center-channel loudspeaker is designed to
perfectly complement the Prelude MTS loudspeaker system.It uses iden-
tical drivers to provide exceptional dialogue reproduction and a seamless
transition between the front channels.The horizontal design allows for
maximum placement flexibility.
AboutThis Guide...
Please read this guide completely before connecting and operating the
Prelude MTS center-channel speaker.Maximum performance is dependent
upon following these instructions,as well as those listed in the owner’s
manuals of associated components in your home-theater system.Save these
instructions for future reference.
Unpacking the Speaker...
Finish unpacking the speaker and check the contents.If you suspect damage
from transit,report it immediately to your dealer and/or delivery service.
Keep the shipping carton and packing materials for future use.
Contents...
Please verify that the package contains the following items:
(1) Prelude MTS center-channel speaker
(1) Speaker stand
Owner’s Guide and Warranty Sheet
Care ofYour Speaker System...
When needed,use a soft cloth,dampened with water only,to
remove any fingerprints or to wipe off dust.Do not use any
cleaning products or polishes.Clean the grille by gentle vacuuming.
P
LACEMENT
For best results,place the Prelude MTS center-channel speaker on its
stand,either on top of or below the television.Tilt it down (or up) so the
front is aimed toward the listeners (see Figures 2 and 3).Also,position the
speaker so the front grille is even with theTV screen,as shown in Figure 1.

Tilting the Speaker...
If needed,the enclosed stand allows you to tilt the speaker across a
25-degree range (i.e.,18° maximum up and 7° maximum down),as
shown in Figure 3.
Important!
Do not exceed the tilt range.Doing so may cause the speaker to fall
out of its stand.
FIGURE 4This example shows how to connect bare wires to the
terminals.Banana plugs may also be inserted directly into the rear of
the connector.

After placing the speaker,you are ready to connect it to your system.
First,turn off all audio-system power.Use high-quality speaker wire
to make the connections.Consult the owner’s manuals,included with
your amplifier or receiver,for connection and operation procedures.
Surround Modes...
When using the Prelude MTS Center in a Dolby* Digital or DTS®
home-theater system,make sure the receiver’s/processor’s center-
channel speaker modes are set to“Small”. When using the Prelude
MTS Center in a Dolby Pro Logic* home-theater system,make sure
the receiver’s/ processor’s center-channel mode is set to“Normal”.
Wiring and Polarity...
The Prelude MTS Center speaker has gold-plated terminals that
can accept either bare wire or banana connectors.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.Connect the –(black) terminals in a similar way.See the
owner’s manuals that were included with your amplifier or receiver to
confirm connection procedures.
Important!
Do not reverse polarities (i.e.,+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 Prelude MTS Center and the
rest of your speaker system,adjust the levels for all of the channels
as recommended by the manufacturer of your receiver/processor.
