User manual JBL CS 460 (220-240V)

[. . . ] When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits, as contact with them might be fatal. Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles, as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings, as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts, which could result in a fire or electric shock. The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing, and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus. [. . . ] While in theory it is true that the larger wavelengths of extremely low frequencies are basically nondirectional, the fact is that, when installing a subwoofer within the limited confines of a room, reflections, standing waves and absorptions generated within the room will strongly influence the performance of any subwoofer system. As a result, specific location of the subwoofer becomes important, and we strongly recommend that you experiment with placement before choosing a final location. Placement will depend upon your room (for example, whether or not your room permits placement of the subwoofer near either satellite) and the amount and quality of bass required. 4 WALL-MOUNTING THE SATELLITES AND CENTER CHANNEL The CS460 satellites and center channel are designed to be mounted on the wall. There is a fixed-mount wall bracket and an adjustable wall bracket provided for each satellite and the center channel. Each speaker bracket will require up to four 1-1/2" #10 wood screws; each screw should be fastened to a wall stud. If a wall stud is unavailable, install an anchor appropriate for a 1-1/2" #10 screw. NOTE: The customer is responsible for the correct selection and use of mounting hardware (available through hardware stores) that will ensure the proper and safe wall-mounting of the speakers. Mark the positions on the wall where you would like to place the mounting screws. Remove the rubber ring on the bottom of the satellite and sit the satellite or center channel speaker onto the back bracket. Attach 1/4-20" screw into insert on bottom of speaker and tighten. Unscrew round collar (C) from bracket (A). A B C Adjustable Wall Bracket Step 1. Mark the positions on the wall where you would like to place the mounting screws. Place bracket against the wall and fasten four 1-1/2" #10 wood screws through the bracket's screw holes into the wall. Screw the ball and shaft assembly (B) to the 1/4"-20 insert on the back of the satellite or the center channel (do not use the bottom insert on either speaker). If the ball and shaft assembly is not backed out before tightening the nut, performing Step 8 below may dislodge the threaded insert in the speaker housing and permanently damage the speaker. Step 6. Drop round collar (C) over ball and shaft assembly (B) that is mounted to the speaker with the finished side of the collar facing the rear of the speaker. Carefully push the ball straight into the socket mounted on the wall, angle the speaker as desired and tighten the collar using the enclosed metal bar. Metal bar Figure 3. Bracket on wall. 5 English CENTER AND SATELLITE SPEAKER CONNECTIONS Turn Off All Power After placing the speakers, you are ready to connect your system. 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 or receiver to confirm connection procedures. Satellites Observe polarities when making speaker connections, as shown in Figure 4. Connect each + terminal on the back of the amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each speaker. [. . . ] However, overall balance must be maintained or the music will not sound natural. An experienced listener will set the volume of the subwoofer so its impact on bass response is always there but never obtrusive. 8 SPECIFICATIONS CS460 SATELLITES Frequency Response (­ 6dB): Recommended Amplifier Power Range: Sensitivity (2. 83V @ 1 meter): Nominal Impedance: Crossover Frequency: High-Frequency Driver: Midrange Driver: Dimensions (H x W x D): Weight: CENTER Frequency Response (­ 6dB): Recommended Amplifier Power Range: Sensitivity (2. 83V @ 1 meter): Nominal Impedance: Crossover Frequency: High-Frequency Driver: Midrange Driver: Dimensions (H x W x D): Weight: SUBWOOFER Frequency Response (­ 6dB): Amplifier: Driver: Dimensions (H x W x D, including feet): Weight: 38Hz ­ 160Hz 125W RMS/250W Peak 170mm (6") 394mm x 273mm x 305mm (15-1/2" x 10-3/4" x 12") 11kg (24. 5 lb) 100Hz ­ 20kHz 10 ­ 100 Watts 88dB 8 Ohms 3. 0kHz; 12dB/Octave 13mm (1/2") Titanium-laminate dome, magnetically-shielded Dual 89mm (3-1/2"), magnetically shielded 133mm x 289mm x 86mm (5-1/4" x 11-3/8" x 3-3/8") 1. 5kg (3. 2 lb) 110Hz ­ 20kHz 10 ­ 100 Watts 86dB 8 Ohms 3. 0kHz; 12dB/Octave 13mm (1/2") Titanium-laminate dome, magnetically-shielded 89mm (3-1/2"), magnetically shielded 152mm x 162mm x 98mm (6" x 6-3/8" x 3-7/8") 0. 9kg (2. 0 lb) The Peak Dynamic Power is measured by recording the highest center-to-peak voltage measured across the output of a resistive load equal to minimum impedance of the transducer, using a 50Hz sine wave burst, 3 cycles on, 17 cycles off.
