STS 150 Speaker System
Your Optimus STS 150 Speaker Sys-
tem has a 2-way acoustic suspension
design that utilizes an 8-inch specially
treated cone surrounded by rubber to
yield excellent low-end response and
tight, clean bass. A 1-inch mylar
tweeter diaphragm provides clear and
natural high-frequency sound repro-
duction.
The speaker cabinet is solid in con-
struction and is finished in woodgrain
vinyl. The decorative grille is acousti-
cally transparent.
Note: You need speaker wire (not
supplied) to connect your speaker.
SPEAKER PLACEMENT
Cautions:
• To prevent the cabinet from warp-
ing or discoloring, do not place the
speaker where it is exposed to
direct sunlight or excessive
humidity.
• Do not place the speaker where it
might be knocked over or hit by
falling objects.
Where and how you position each
STS-150 speaker has a great effect
on the overall performance of your
sound system.
For the best sound and stereo effect,
place the speakers so the distance
between them is about the same as
the distance between the listening
area and a point halfway between the
speakers.
If you place the speakers too far apart,
a sound “hole” could occur and you
might not get the proper stereo image
in the listening area. Compensate for
this by angling the speakers slightly in
toward the listening area.
If you place the speakers too close to-
gether, you could cancel out the ste-
reo image and the sound might seem
to be monaural. Compensate for this
by angling the speakers slightly away
from the listening area.
