System 20 LCR and SR InWall Speakers System 20 THX Installation Instructions About These Speakers System 20 by Atlantic Technology is a high performance home theater and music sound speaker system designed to mount in the walls of your home. The system consists of a three-way full range front satellite, System 20 LCR, and a switchable Dipole/Bipole surround speaker, System 20 SR.
System 20 LCR and SR InWall Speakers The System 20 SR Dipole/Bipole switch When the System 20 SR absolutely must be located in a place that is not Dipole friendly (e.g. in the ceiling; well behind the listening position, etc.) it can be easily switched to a Bipole configuration using the switch located under the grille.
System 20 LCR and SR InWall Speakers Home Theater Speaker Locations Today’s home theater systems require you to place six or more speakers in your room; front left, front center, front right, two surrounds, and a subwoofer. Some other systems include additional rear surround channels to further the illusion of total involvement. And placement for all these speakers is potentially more critical than with pure music reproduction alone.
System 20 LCR and SR InWall Speakers Left speaker to the left side of the room and the Right on the right side. As much as possible keep the null centered on the prime listening position. IMPORTANT: Please note that there are dedicated left and right Dipole surround speakers and they are labeled as such. This is done to ensure that the drivers facing the front of the room are in phase with the system’s front speakers. Left and right refer to the left and right wall when you are seated facing the screen.
System 20 LCR and SR InWall Speakers Infrared Eye Repeater Opening There’s a cutout located on the front of the System 20 LCR that’s designed to accept most IR repeater receivers. This cutout is located under the round Atlantic Technology “Wave logo” adjacent to the woofer. To remove the Wave logo simply push it out from behind. Rear Enclosure and Internal Wall Treatment An optional enclosure is available for the System 20 LCR (IN-BOX-20LCR).
System 20 LCR and SR InWall Speakers IMPORTANT: Exercise extreme care before making any wall cuts to ensure that you will not cut through any wires, pipes, or other items that may be in the wall. You may sometimes, but not always, be able to determine the approximate location of wires and pipes by looking at the locations of nearby outlets and plumbing. But their presence or absence is never an assurance that there is not something within the wall cavity.
System 20 LCR and SR InWall Speakers Painting the Bezel and the Grille The bezel of the speaker assembly and the metal grille may be left as is or painted to match your décor. You can paint the frame before or after it is installed in the wall. Use the included paint shield to protect against getting any paint on the front of the speaker. Spray painting (using slightly thinned paint) is the best method to use for painting the grille.
