General Information

Please read these instructions thoroughly before attempting to install and operate the C1.8

center speaker.

Check Speaker and Parts

Unpack and carefully check each loudspeaker. If you suspect damage from transit, report
the problem immediately to your dealer and/or delivery service.

If possible, save the shipping cartons for future use.

General Care of Your Loudspeaker

Whenever changing speaker wires, interconnect wires, or power cords, always turn off all
equipment. To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the amplifier to rain or excessive
moisture. To avoid electric shock, do not open the amplifier. There are no user serviceable
parts inside.

Your speakers and amplifier come in a high quality finish that is both attractive and durable.
To clean, use a soft, damp cloth. If your drivers become dusty, dust them with a paintbrush
or a brush vacuum attachment. Do not use a strong or abrasive cleaner.

The grille is covered in acoustic cloth. To keep your grille clear of debris, we recommend
you use a lint roller (like you would use on clothes).

Bass and Loudness Contour Controls

Do not use bass or loudness contour controls. Induction Dynamics’ subwoofers produce
very low frequencies without these controls. Use of these controls will make the bass sound
“boomy”, obscure higher frequencies, and possibly cause damage due to excessive cone
excursion.

C1.8 Location

Ideally, the C1.8 should be placed behind a perforated video projection screen. For use
with a flat-screen or other video monitor, the best placement is usually below the screen.
If it is not possible to place the speaker below the screen, placement above the screen is
acceptable.

In any case, the center channel should be centered between the left and right front
channels, as close to listening height as possible.
