INTRODUCTION The Infinity HTS-20 is a compact, efficient universal satellite, center-channel and subwoofer system that is ideal for reproducing home-theater sound. With their versatile design, the satellite speakers can be placed virtually anywhere on shelves or stands, or mounted on a wall or ceiling using the integral 4-way mounting bracket. The bracket has crossholes for mounting and also acts as a door for hiding the connection terminals. The center channel can easily be placed on top of or

SATELLITE PRIMARY LISTENING AREA Here are some useful hints: 1. Experimentation with the port direction may be useful. At times directing the port away from the listening area (to the side) may be advantageous because this may create a better blend of bass within the listening room. 2. If bass response se

SHELF PLACEMENT OF THE SATELLITES VERTICAL POSITION... The satellite speakers can be positioned vertically in two positions on a shelf or stand, as shown in Figure 3. Set each satellite flat, with the logo at the bottom and the bracket facing inward. You can also push the speakers gently back for a 20° tilt. Figure 3.

HORIZONTAL MOUNTING... For horizontal mounting, fasten the #6 wood screws (not included) to a wall stud, leaving a 3⁄16" clearance between the base of the screw head and the wall. If desired, loosen the bracket screw, adjust the bracket angle, and tighten the bracket screw. NOTE: You may want to route the wires before tightening the bracket screw (see Figure 8 on page 11). Then orient the speaker horizontally, align the crossholes on the rear of the speaker with the screws, and slide the speake

WIRING THE SPEAKERS TURN OFF ALL POWER... After placing the speakers, you are ready to connect your system. First turn off all audio system power. Use high-quality speaker wire to make your connections. If you need more wire than is provided, use at least #16 gauge speaker wire with polarity coding. The side of the wire with a ridge or other coding is usually considered positive polarity (i.e., + ). Also, consult the owner’s manuals that were included with your amplifier, receiver, or television

CENTER CHANNEL... Observe polarities when making speaker connections, as shown in Figure 9 (below). Connect each + terminal on the back of the amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on the speaker. Connect the – (black) terminals in the same way. IMPORTANT! Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to – or – to +) when making connections. Center Channel (rear view) Figure 9.

A FEW SUGGESTIONS We recommend that you not operate your speakers or subwoofer with the bass, treble and loud- ness controls set to full boost. This will place undue strain on your electronics and speakers and could damage them. The volume control setting on your preamplifier or stereo receiver is not a specific indication of the overall loudness level of the speakers. The only important consideration is the loudness level at which the system can be played regardless of where the volume control

Bass response should not overpower the room but rather be adjusted so there is a harmonious blend across the entire musical range.
