CENTER CHANNEL  
MONITOR6C  
HOOK UP  
Note: If your amplifier or receiver has a 4/8switch, optimum perfomance  
will be achieved using the 4or lowest impedance positon.  
When using the MONITOR6C as a center channel speaker in a home theater  
application the following guidelines should be used for optimum performance.  
Use 16 gauge or heavier speaker wire for connecting to your amplifier or receiver.  
Cut wire lengths leaving an extra 12” to 24” at each end to allow for moving the  
speaker or receiver.  
Locate the speaker as close to the center of your TV or monitor as possible  
(Figure 1). This will anchor the central image of your home theater to the location  
of the images seen on the screen.  
Using a wire cutter or a sharp knife, strip 1/2” of insulation off each end of the wire  
to expose the conductor. Twist wire ends to prevent from fraying. Connect the  
conductors to the binding posts on the bottom or back of the speaker by unscrew-  
ing the post enough to expose the hole in the terminal post. Slip the exposed  
conductor in the hole and tighten the post. Repeat this step for connecting to your  
amplifier or receiver. Refer to the owner’s manual supplied with your electronics  
to assist with proper hook up.  
Place the center channel at an equal distance to the listening position as the main  
speakers are. Also, place the height of the center channel’s tweeter as close to the  
same height as the main speakers’ tweeters (Figure 3). This will prevent image  
blurring when sounds are panned from the one side of the room to the other.  
Note: To ensure proper performance, make sure that the wire from the red  
(+) terminal on the speaker is connected to the red (+) terminal on your  
amplifier or receiver. Likewise, make sure the wire from the black (-) termi-  
nal on the speaker is connected to the black (-) terminal on the amplifier or  
receiver. (Figure 4)

Overload Protection  
The MONITOR10 and MONITOR12 are equipped with an internal overload pro-  
tection circuit. The overload protection is a two-stage circuit designed to prevent  
accidental damage caused by overpowering or amplifier clipping.

The first stage is an active compression circuit that protects the midrange and  
tweeter. Music signals that may be harmful to the midrange or tweeter are com-  
pressed. The result is a seamless, clear sounding loudspeaker.  
FIGURE 4 Connecting Speakers to Amplifier or Receiver  
The second stage is a PTC switch designed to protect the entire loudspeaker.  
When the music signal reaches a harmful level or is distorting excessively the  
PTC switches to a high impedance state, reducing the loudspeaker output dra-  
matically. Turning the volume control down to a low level for 10 seconds will  
restore normal operation.  
Once your speakers are hooked up, turn on your electronics and test to make  
sure they are functioning properly. If your speakers sound “thin” with little bass  
and have a poor center image, one of the speaker wires is probably hooked up  
backwards. Double check all connections for proper polarity.
