Please Inspect For Shipping Damage

Each loudspeaker leaves our plant in perfect condition. Any visible or concealed

damage most likely occurred in handling after it left our plant and should be

reported at once to your Deﬁnitive dealer or the shipping company which deliv-

ered your loudspeaker.

Congratulations

Congratulations on your purchase of the Deﬁnitive

Technology ProMonitor Loudspeaker System.

This revolutionary loudspeaker utilizes state-of-the-art

components (cast basket homopolymer-coned

bass-midrange drivers, moving coil ferroﬂuid-cooled

pure aluminum dome high frequency radiators, uniphase

crossover networks, etc.), a non-resonant PolyStone

™

cabinet and low diffraction construction in order to

achieve the most lifelike sound possible in your listening

room for many years to come.

Your ProMonitor is a unique speaker which may be

used by itself as a full-range system or as a satellite

with a Deﬁnitive ProSub to create a three-piece system.

This three-piece system can then be combined with

the ProCenter as a four-piece home theater system

and then with two additional ProMonitors to create

a complete Dolby Digital AC-3-ready ProCinema

home theater system.

Loudspeaker System

Owner’s Manual

It is critical for proper performance that both speakers (left and right) be connect-

ed in proper phase. Note that one terminal on each speaker (the +) is colored red and

the other (the -) is colored black. Please make certain that you connect the red (+)

terminal on each speaker to the red (+) terminal of its channel on your ampliﬁer or

receiver and the black (-) terminal to the black (-) terminal. It is essential that both

speakers be connected in the same way to the ampliﬁer (in phase). If you experience

a great lack of bass, it is likely that one speaker is out of phase with the other.

Connecting Your Loudspeakers

Usually if distortion is heard when the speakers are being driven at

loud levels, it is caused by driving (turning up) the ampliﬁer too loud and

not driving the speakers with more power than they can handle. Remember,

most ampliﬁers put out their full rated power well before the volume control

is turned all the way up! (Often, turning the dial half way up is actually full

power.) If your speakers distort when you play them loud, turn down the

ampliﬁer or get a bigger one.

Using the ProMonitor

in Conjunction with a ProSub

When a pair of ProMonitors is used in conjunction with a ProSub, they may be

connected either directly to the left and right channels of your ampliﬁer or

receiver, or to the left and right speaker level outputs on a ProSub (when the

ProSub is connected via the high-level speaker wire inputs to the left and right

channel speaker outputs on your receiver). Connecting the ProMonitor to a ProSub

(which includes a built-in high-pass crossover for the ProMonitors) will result in

greater dynamic range (the system can be played louder without over driving the

satellites) and is recommended for most installations especially when the system is

being used for home theater. Because this is the most common set-up, the following

instructions relate to wiring the ProMonitors to a ProSub.

Wiring 2 ProMonitors and 1 ProSub

for Stereo (2-Channel) Use

1. First, wire the red (+) terminal of the left channel speaker wire output of your

receiver or ampliﬁer to the red (+) terminal of the left channel speaker wire (high

level) input of your ProSub.

2. Next, wire the black (-) terminal of the left channel speaker wire output of your

receiver or ampliﬁer to the black (-) terminal of the left channel speaker wire

(high level) input of the ProSub.

3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for the right channel.

4. Wire the red (+) terminal of the left ProMonitor to the left channel red (+)

speaker wire (high level) out on the back of the ProSub.

5. Wire the black (-) terminal of the left ProMonitor to the left channel black (-)

speaker wire (high level) out on the back of the ProSub.

6. Repeat steps 4 & 5 for the right ProMonitor.

7. Set the low frequency ﬁlter control on the back of the ProSub to the setting described

in a ProSub Owner’s Manual. Please note that the exact frequency will depend on

many factors including speciﬁc positions of the speakers in the room, so you might

experiment with a slightly higher or lower setting to achieve ideal blending between

the sub and the satellites for your particular set-up. Listen to a wide variety of music

to determine the correct setting for this in your system.

8. Set the subwoofer level control to the setting described in a ProSub Owner’s Manual.

Please note that the exact level depends on many factors including your room size,

position of the speakers, etc. as well as your personal listening taste, so you might

experiment with the subwoofer level while listening to a wide variety of music until

you achieve the ideal setting for your system.

9. If your receiver allows you to choose whether or not the main speakers are to receive

a full-range signal, choose full range (or “Large” Left and Right Main Speakers).

There are many different variations of the basic Dolby ProLogic and Dolby

Digital AC-3 formats and features, as well as a multiplicity of ways in which the

speakers can be hooked up to these systems. We will discuss the simplest and most

effective hookups and adjustments. If you have a particular question regarding your

set-up, please call us.

For Dolby ProLogic Systems

Follow Steps 1-9 provided earlier. The subwoofer will receive its low frequency

signal through the full-range speaker level outputs. If, however, your system has

a separate subwoofer RCA low level output which has a remote control level

adjustment, you might also want to hook this up using an RCA-to-RCA low level

cable to the LFE/subwoofer-in low level input (the lower RCA input) on a ProSub.

Then use your remote control sub level adjustment to ﬁne-tune the low frequency

level for different types of program material. (You might ﬁnd you want a higher

level for some music or for movies).

For Dolby Digital AC-3 5.1 Systems

Please note that Dolby Digital decoders have bass management systems (systems

which direct the bass to the various channels) which vary from unit to unit.

Simplest Hook-Up

The simplest way to hook up and use your ProCinema System with Dolby Digital

5.1 Systems is to hook a ProMonitor to each of the front (main) left, front (main) right,

rear (surround) left and rear (surround) right channels and a ProCenter to the front

center channel outputs of your receiver or power ampliﬁer making sure that the red (+)

terminal of each speaker is hooked up to the red (+) terminal of its proper channel out-

put and the black (-) terminal is connected to the black (-) terminal of its proper chan-

nel output. Then connect the LFE RCA output on your receiver or decoder to the LFE

input on your Deﬁnitive ProSub subwoofer.
