These speakers can be either wall-mounted above or below the video display, or can be placed on a shelf or on the television itself with the included rocker base.
Placement Front Stage Loudspeakers Placement Figure 2 Speaker Placement Speaker Placement and Home Theater Remember that the primary goal of a good home theater is not to make you believe that you are in a movie theater. It’s to make you believe you’re in the movie. For a home theater system, place the speaker either above or below your flat screen display, centered horizontally. See Figure 2.

System Setup Front Stage Loudspeakers System Setup System Setup When Using an Optional Subwoofer Figure 10 Some older surround sound decoders and receivers offer a choice of “Normal” or “Wide-band” modes for the center channel speaker. The Front Stage Loudspeakers are designed to be used in the Normal mode. Modern digital processing multi-channel systems provide a Bass Management menu, which typically requires you to select between “Small” or “Large” speakers during system set-up.

System Setup Front Stage Loudspeakers Using Optional Surround Speakers Connecting Your System If you are setting up a full home theater system, any of our surround speakers, boxed or in-wall, will work very well with the Front Stage Loudspeakers. All Atlantic Technology speakers are “voiced” to the same standards of tonal neutrality and sonic accuracy. Our model 2200SR Bipole/Dipole surround speakers, for example, would be an excellent match for an FS-based home theater system.
System Wiring Instruction Manual System Wiring Be sure to connect red (+) on the speaker to red (+) on the amplifier and black (–) on the speaker to black (–) on the amplifier.
Care of Your Speakers Front Stage Loudspeakers Care of Your Speakers Clean your cabinets using a soft, lint-free cloth. If you wish, you can slightly moisten the cloth with plain water. Do not use any other cleaning agents or chemicals. Be careful not to get any water on the driver cones or tweeter domes. After carefully removing the grilles from the speakers by pulling them forward, gently clean them with a quick pass from a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment.
