Owner's Guide
Thank you for your purchase. Our speakers are designed to make high-performance
sound easy to bring into your life. They have the wide frequency and dynamic range,
natural tonal balance, and precise spatial imaging needed to make both music and
movies powerfully lifelike and enjoyable. All of our models match closely in tonal balance
to allow easy mixing in home theater systems.
The quick-start instructions below will get you going. But we hope you will read through
this booklet to help assure your maximum enjoyment.
I. QUICK-START GUIDE
A. Be sure power to your amplifier/receiver and other electronics is off
before making connections.
B. Install bumpers or feet with adjustable levelers or spikes.
1. Bumpers and Support Bars (Bookshelf and Center Channel
Speakers)
Attach the adhesive-backed bumpers near the corners of bookshelf
and center channel speakers, to protect the finish of the speaker
and the finish of the furniture beneath. For centre channel speakers
supplied with support bars, position the bar to aim the speaker
toward the listening position.
2. Molded Feet and Stabilizers, Adjustable Rubber Levelers and
AdJustable Spikes (Tower Speakers)
If not already attached, screw the supplied moulded feet into the
threaded inserts located in the corners of the speaker bottom. In
some models, speaker spikes for carpet use or threaded rubber
isolation levelers for hard floor use can be inserted into the feet. In
other models, spikes or levelers go directly into the threaded
inserts in the pedestal base on the bottom of the speaker rather
than into feet.
SPEAKERS

a) Carpet Use
Screw four spikes with four lock nuts into the inserts located
in the four corners of the speaker bottom, Locate the
speakers and adjust to the desired height (higher for thicker
carpet) and tighten the lock nuts with the wrench.
b) Hard Floor Use
Screw four threaded rubber isolation bumpers with four lock
nuts into the inserts located in the four corners of the speaker
bottom. Adjust and tighten the lock nuts with nut wrench.
C. Position your main speakers, as symmetrically as possible, at a
comfortable listening distance-slightly closer to each other than they are
to you. (For surround speakers, see later instructions.)
D. Using standard 18 gauge (1.0mm dia) lamp wire or better, connect the
Red (positive) terminal on each channel of your amp/receiver to a Red
terminal post on that channel's speaker, and the Black (negative)
terminal to a Black terminal post on the speaker.
E. Setting the volume low beforehand, turn on your associated equipment,
find a comfortable listening volume-and enjoy your favourite audio
and/or video selections.
F. After you have settled in with your speakers, read through this booklet.
Be sure to read jfProtecting Your Investment'
II. ADDITIONAL DETAILS ON CONNECTING YOUR SPEAKERS
A. Important: Always tum off your electronic equipment before
connecting speakers. If you don't, severe damage to equipment
and/or your ears may result.
B. Selecting Speaker Wire
We recommend the following gauge of standard two-conductor wire for
the wiring distances specified; if you prefer, you can use thicker
(lower-gauge) wire.
Under 25ft (7.5 m):
25-50 ft (7.5-15 m):
50-100ft (15-30 m):
Over 100ft (>30m):
C. Connecting In Phase
18-gauge or 1.0 mm dia (lamp cord)
16-gauge or 1.3 mm dia (heater cord)
14-gauge or 1.6 mm dia
12-gauge or 2.0 mm dia
Connect speakers identically to your amplifier or receiver on each
2

channel-Red amp/receiver terminal to Red speaker terminal, Black to
Black. This will ensure that the diaphragms of the speakers on both
channels move forward and backward together ("in-phase"), rather than
in opposition ("out-of-phase"). In-phase connection provides maximum
clarity and bass, while out-of-phase connection results in frequency
cancellations and produces thinner and less distinct sound-with less
bass, vague vocal quality, and no solid centre image. To help insure the
proper connection, the two separate conducting wires in a standard two-
conductor speaker cable are coded in one way or another to be
distinguishable from each other. (The jacket of one wire may be ribbed or
marked with "+" signs, or one wire under the insulation may be a different
colour from the other.) Use this wire-coding, together with the
amp/receiver and speaker colour-coding, to be sure you are connecting
the same wire of a given pair to a like-coded terminal at both ends of
your connection.
D. Be sure all wiring terminals, are tightened firmly secure, but be careful
not to overtighten and damage the connectors.

E. Bi·wiring and Bi-amping
The metal jumper strap that connects the two sets of terminals on some
of our speakers is removable. This allows you to connect either separate
cables to the separated woofer and tweeter terminals ("bi-wiring") or
separate amplifiers ("bi-amping"). With Bi-Amp hookup you must use
either identical amplifiers or amplifiers adjusted to have the same voltage
gain. Consult your PSB dealer for further information. (Illustrations are for
one speaker hookup only). With single cable inputs, the jumper straps
3

must be in place and both sets of terminals tightened firmly.

Ill. SPEAKER PLACEMENT-MAXIMIZING YOUR ENJOYMENT
The positioning of your main left-right speakers for stereo or home theatre can
play a major role in their performance. We hope you will read through the
placement discussion on these next few pages, beginning with these basics:
A. The optimum placement height for main speakers is normally with their
tweeters at about the same height as your ears when you are seated.
Our tower speakers are designed for optimal listening when seated. For
our compact monitors, we recommend using generally available
accessory speaker stands to achieve the right height if you are not using
existing shelves or furniture. You may prefer to tilt the speakers towards
ear level if the proper height is not possible.
B. You will generally get the best imaging and other spatial qualities if your
speakers and your usual seating position form an almost equilateral
triangle, with the speakers not quite as far apart from each other as they
are from you. If you must sit closer to one speaker than the other, use the
Balance control on your electronics (or the individual level controls on
home theatre channels) to give the more distant speaker a balancing
boost in volume.
C. The best high-frequency dispersion, producing the widest "sweet spor in
which you and others can sit and enjoy optimum high-frequency
definition, will result when your speaker enclosures are positioned
vertically rather than horizontally. If you need to place compact monitor
enclosures horizontally, the speakers will still perform very well, but the
seating area where you will enjoy optimum sound will become more
narrow. We suggest you position the tweeters to the outside away from
the centre line.
4

D. If you sit equally distant from both speakers, angling the speakers inward
crtoeing them in') about 5 to 10 degrees usually produces the best
convergence of high frequencies where you listen. Different listening
positions may require different toe-in.
E. To go beyond these basics and experiment with positioning for optimum
performance, please read the placement guidelines that follow. They are
about the speakers, the room, and you.
1. The Speakers in Relation to Room Boundaries
The position of your speakers with respect to the walls, floor, and
ceiling of your listening room will often affect their sound in major
ways.
a) The closer you place speakers to the boundary surfaces of
your room, the greater the proportion of bass in their overall
sound. This is due to the enclosing, "focusing" effects of
nearby surfaces on longer-wavelength (lower) frequencies.
Positioning the speakers near the intersection of two
surfaces (wall and wall, wall and floor, or wall and ceiling) will
produce more apparent bass than placement near a single
surface. The greatest proportion of bass is delivered by
placement near three intersecting surfaces-in a room comer
near the floor or ceiling, where the convergence of the two
walls and the floor/ceiling produces an amplifying effect that
is a bit like that of a megaphone. And the least bass comes
from placing a speaker away from all boundaries. Your own
tastes should decide what proportion of bass response
seems right in your room.
b) The combination of the three dimensions of your room
generally will produce at least three points in the room where
the frequency response you experience related to a given
position (of either the speaker or you) will either greatly
increase or almost disappear. The most obvious effects are
on low frequencies, but mid-frequency effects, while usually
subtler, are also often present. Keep in mind, then, that very
small changes in positioning (of the speakers or you) may
produce major or subtle changes.
c) Distances of speakers from the walls can make great
differences in the number, strength, and particular
frequencies of secondary reflections--changing frequency-
balance, sonic spaciousness, and definition. Most listeners
prefer their speakers at least a few inches from all walls, but
the choice is yours to determine by listening.
5

2. You in Relation to the Speakers
Where you sit in relation to your speakers obviously makes a
difference too. The proportions of the particular triangle formed by
your speakers and you matter. (You may need to send more power
to the more distant speaker to compensate if you get much further
from one speaker than the other.) The overall distances involved
also matter. As you get further from the speakers, more sound
reflected from your room•s surfaces (in contrast to the sound
coming directly from the speakers) reaches your ears, and the
original spatial relationships in a recording are changed as your
room "takes over." Sometimes the result is a mellower, more
"integrated" sound. Other times, it•s a more strident or annoyingly
"echoey· -or other-quality. Once again, the particular dimensions
of your room play a part. And depending on what seems more
realistic and/or enjoyable to your ears, you may choose to sit at a
great distance or have close-up, "near-field" sound.
Keep in mind that the right ••toe-in," the right speaker height, and a
reasonably symmetrical distance from the speakers all tend to work
together to deliver the best high-frequency definition and imaging.
3. You in Relation to Room Boundaries
Changing your own position with respect to a room•s boundaries
may also bring a big effect, sometimes for a small change. Getting
further from the wall behind you may make sound more precise
and localized. Getting closer may make sound more "mellow" and
integrated. Coming too close-to back wall, side wall, or
(especially) a corner-may trigger a major sonic peak or
cancellation of a certain band of frequencies. It depends on factors
we can't cover fully here but do get into on our web site -
www.psbspeakers.com.
Remember too, with respect to your own positioning, that it
may-or may not-be easier to change your own seating location
than to move your speakers. As with so much else in life, the one
certain rule is that you shouldn•t fix, or worry about, what isn't
broken (audibly in this case), especially if it means moving heavy
furniture.
As you consider the three relationships we have outlined, the idea is to manipulate
whatever variable is easiest and most productive for improving your listening experience.
Be sure to base your judgements on listening to a good variety of recordings of
vocals, and acoustic instruments, soloists, different movies and musical
instruments to most easily recognize tonal balance shifts.
6

IV. POSITIONING SURROUND SPEAKERS
Your surround speakers and how they are positioned will determine the sonic
realism of movies and multi-channel audio.
Most surround sound is meant more to create greater depth and overall
ambience than to localize effects as coming from a particular spot. This is
especially true of Dolby Pro-Logic surround sound, in which both surround
channels carry the same (monophonic) information and can't be differentiated
from each other. With Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound, there is very
definite localization of some surround effects. How much you prefer these
localized effects vs. overall sonic depth and diffusion is up to your listening
preferences. If you are listening to multi-channel music, you may want the
maximum localization of instruments. But if your main concern is the surround
effects in movies, they tend to depend more on front-to-back movement than
on specific localization. You can locate and aim your surround speakers to
produce the effects you prefer, whether precisely pinpointed or pleasantly
diffused. Although some people prefer to have their surround speakers behind
them on stands at ear height, most find it easiest and best to mount compact
monitors on the walls, at least two feet above your ear height when you are
seated.
If your listening room is small, aiming the speakers to diffuse their sound
somewhat may produce the best overall surround illusion. They can be
mounted, for instance, on the side walls and aimed to bounce sound off the
rear walls, or vice versa. If you opt for localization of sound from the surrounds,
the speakers should face your listening spot, aimed at or slightly above your
seated position. Speakers mounted on the side walls generally will sound best
when placed a foot or two behind your seating area. Our illustration shows
some typical placement options.

V. PROTECTING YOUR INVESTMENT
A. For full, year-after-year enjoyment from your speakers, you should
respect their limits. They will produce room-filling volume in average-
sized rooms-and handle peak momentary levels at those volumes
without audible strain. But avoid louder-than-life playback of music or
movies, especially in large rooms. Even the most "bulletproor
speakers can be damaged by excessive volume levels, especially for
long periods.
B. When listening to music or movies at very loud volume, you
shouldn't tum up bass or treble all the way or close thereto. This
sends tremendously increased, disproportionate power into the speakers,
and may well damage them. Some loudness compensation ("Loudness")
controls, which boost both bass and treble, can also be troublesome at
high volume. They are intended only for low-volume listening.
C. Finally, you should be aware that when amplifiers and receivers are
pushed to their limits to produce excessive volume levels, they are
driven into "clipping" and can do severe damage-especially to
tweeters. Often, the damage is done by underpowered amplifiers, which
may reach their limits very soon. When such units begin to "clip" the
audio waveform, they may generate high-frequency "spikes" of
tremendous power. More tweeters have probably been destroyed by this
phenomenon than any other. If using your speakers at loud levels,
listen carefully for any sign of harsh, garbled midrange and
diminishing intelligibility-and tum the volume down right away if
you detect it.
NEVER TURN UP THE VOLUME ALL THE WAY TO SEE HOW LOUD
YOUR SYSTEM WILL PLAYI
D. Recommended Power
We recommend amplifiers and receivers rated from a range of 20-150
watts with our compact systems, 20-200 watts with our tower models. For
playing at consistently room-filling volume, a minimum of 50 watts is
usually a good idea. As just indicated in the paragraph above, be wary of
driving low-powered amplifiers to their limits.
We recommend a maximum of 80-150 watts for sustained program
material-as, for instance, with organ pedal tones of long duration, or
minutes-long subterranean special effects in movies.
Be aware amplifiers with equal power rating may not play equally loud.
Those with higher dynamic power ratings, better satisfy the power
requirements. Some have protective circuitry that curtails power available
in demanding situations.
8

E. Cabinet Care
Cabinets have varying materials and finishes, including wood veneers,
vinyl, anodized aluminum and high gloss "poly lacquers" and should be
treated as you would furniture with similar finishes. Dust lightly with a soft
cloth; avoiding abrasives. If necessary, wipe carefully with a cloth slightly
dampened with glass cleaner to remove heavy soil.
F. Grilles and Ports
A lint brush does a good job of cleaning grilles. Removable grilles can be
taken off and vacuumed if you prefer. If need be, you can use a lint brush
to clean ports. Avoid touching speaker diaphragms. Particularly, pushing
in the domes will permanently damage tweeters.
VI. IN CASE OF PROBLEMS
A. Lower power ifa speaker begins to sound distorted, or seems to be
missing certain frequencies, to check first to see whether playing at
somewhat lower volume seems to clear up the problem. As we noted
under "Recommended Power," it can be especially important to tum
down the volume right away if you have pushed a low-powered amplifier
or receiver past its comfortable limits.
B. Isolate the problem to the electronics or the speakers and, if the
speakers, to specific speakers. Interchange the speaker wire connections
on your amplifier or receiver between channels, so that the left speaker is
connected to the right channel, or vice versa. If the problem shifts to the
other speaker, the problem is not in the speaker but in the electronics.
C. Another component-or, very often, a cable or connection problem
between components-may be at fault. If the problem stays in the same
speaker, irrespective of the channel to which it's connected-and after
changing the connecting wire--chances are the speaker itself probably
needs service.
D. See your dealer if you require service. PSB dealers are equipped to
handle almost all problems. If you have moved since your purchase, the
nearest authorized PSB dealer should be able to help you. If the problem
is not resolved, please contact us, providing the Model name, Serial
Number, date of purchase, dealer name, and a full description of the
problem.
We appreciate your purchase, and hope this owner's guide helps you enjoy the
exceptional satisfaction that PSB speaker systems have to offer. We wish you
many years of enjoyable listening!

0 Port Cover (Figure 1)
A Port Cover accessory is supplied with each towerand center channel speaker. The
port cover can be used to adjust the bass tuning
of the Imagine models where room
problems at low frequencies (in the
1OOHz region) occur. It is well knowthat the room
can dominate the performance
of the lowfrequencies below 200Hz and the added
flexibility
of a port cover can tweak/improve the performance in problem room setups.
The use
of the port coveris not limited to only closing one of the ports in the case of
the tower. We invite the listener to try plugging any one or multiple ports to better
integrate the system in theirroom because any adjustment
of the bass balance could
be a welcome improvement in a given system setup. Please experiment;
it will be
worth the effort in manycases. It's impossible
to predictwhat type of room or whatthe
system setupwill be, therefore we thinkthe flexibility
of multiple ports allows the
speakerto be integrated better in a widervariety
of situations. Sometimes tweaking
like this can be used to really help "dial in" the best possible sound in your room.
Additional Port Covers can be acquired
for a nominal fee in cases where multiple
ports need to be covered to achieve the proper bass balance in a given setup. One
can also experimentwith the Port Cover on the bookshelf model to tame the bass in
some setups.
