ELAN HOME SYSTEMS INSTALLATION MANUAL THP525W/THP650W/THP650D
EQ Switch (THP650W/THP525W)
Select the -3 position on the EQ switch to compensate for “live”
rooms where sound bounces and refl ects from hard surfaces like
tile or hardwood fl oors, large glass surfaces/windows, stone or brick
walls, etc. Select the +3 position to compensate for “dead” rooms
where sound is absorbed by soft materials like heavy drapes, thick
carpeting, upholstered furniture, etc. Use the 0 position if no
compensation is required.
PHASE Switch (THP650D)
It is extremely important that proper polarity (or “Phase”) is main-
tained when installing dipole speakers such as the THP650D. Each
speaker in a pair needs to have opposite polarity from the other in
order for the benefi ts of the dipole design to be realized. To ensure
proper polarity, the THP650D has a PHASE switch.
Set the PHASE switch after the speakers have been installed. Set the
left surround speaker (when facing the front of the room) to the “0”
position. Set the right surround speaker to the “180” position.
