Unpacking Your Mythos XTR-50 Speakers

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 delivery company that delivered your loud-

speaker. Please unpack your speaker carefully. Save all cartons and packing materials in

case you move or need to ship your speaker. Record the serial number found on the

back of the Mythos XTR-50 on this manual.

VERY IMPORTANT: Accessories

Various parts and accessories that you will need to use your Mythos XTR-50 are in

the carton but are easy to overlook. Open both ends of the shipping carton. Carefully

examine the contents of the shipping carton and packing material to find the plastic

bags with accessories.

Mythos XTR-50 can be mounted either vertically as main or surround

speakers or horizontally for use as a center channel speaker. The logo

badge is not pre-attached to the

grille and is packaged in a plastic

bag along with the other

accessories. It should be affixed

in the cor ect place on the grille r

once you have determined the

speaker’s alignment. For horizontal

(center channel) use, align the badge

with the location on the long side of the

grille; for vertical use, align the badge with the

location on the short side of the grille. [Figure 11] To affix

the logo badge, gently press the logo badge into the recess

on the grill. A magnet will hold the logo in place. Do not press

the badge too hard or you may crack the grille.

Receiver/Speaker Set-up

Access your receiver’s “Speaker Set-up” or “Speaker Configuration” Menu.

1. In the Speaker Set-up/Configure function of your receiver, set all

channels that are connected to Mythos XTR-50s to “Small.”

2. Select “Yes” when asked if you are using a subwoofer.

3. Set the subwoofer crossover

frequency on the receiver to

120 Hz if the speaker is mounted

on a wall and 150 Hz if the

speakers are sitting on a shelf.

Connecting the Mythos XTR-50

The wire connection method used on the Mythos XTR-50 is

different than most speakers so please read these instructions!

(NOTE: if you are using the table stands, you should pass the wire through

the wire channels before attaching the green speaker wire connector.)

1. In the accessories plastic bag you will find a small green plastic

connector as shown in Figure 1.

2. Strip 1⁄2 inch (12 mm) of insulation from each conductor of the

speaker wire to expose the bare metal and twist each of the

individual conductors into single un-frayed strands.

3. Use a small jewelers screwdriver to loosen the screws on the

connector just enough to allow the wire ends to fit in

the holes. [Figure 1]

4. Slip the wire ends into the holes and tighten the screws until the

wire is firmly attached to the connector. (NOTE: if you are using

the table stands, you should pass the wire through the wire

channels before attaching the wire connector.)

Note that one of the terminals is marked

with “+” and the other is marked with “-“.

Make certain that you connect the wire

from the red (+) terminal of your amplifier

or receiver to the “+” terminal on your

speaker and the wire from the black (-)

terminal of your amplifier or receiver to the

“-“ terminal on your speaker. Most speaker

wire has some indicator (such as color-

coding, ribbing or writing) on one of the

two conductors to help you maintain

consistency. It is essential to connect both

speakers to the amplifier in the same way

(in phase). If you experience a lack of bass

or poor surround effect, it is likely that one

or more of the channels is connected in

incorrect polarity and needs to be rewired.

Pay closer attention to connect

positive to positive and negative to

negative on all channels.

5. Gently push the male

connector with the wire into

the female receptacle on the

speaker. The connector is

designed so that it can

only go in one way with the

correct orientation of positive

and negative pins. [Figure 2]

6. Connect a single RCA cable from the “SUB OUT” of your receiver

to the LFE input of the subwoofer (not included). [Figure 3] This

connecting method bypasses the subwoofer’s internal “crossover”

or low pass filter and relies on the crossover filter built into

your receiver.

7. See page 4 for instructions on Speaker Set Up in your

surround receiver.

OWNER’S MANUAL

Wall Mounting the Mythos XTR-50

• We recommend that wall-mounting of speakers be performed by

professional installers or by those skilled in the use of power tools

and the knowledge of building codes and structural issues.

• We recommend that you determine a suitable location for your

speaker installation, and that you complete all wiring (especially

“hidden” in-wall wiring) before mounting the brackets to your walls.

• Mythos wall-mount brackets are not suitable for ceiling mounting.

The Mythos XTR-50 loudspeaker comes with a wall-mounting

bracket that can make mounting easier but in most cases the

bracket is not necessar to wall-mount the speakery . The supplied

bracket may be necessary when mounting the speaker to a full-

motion or tilting TV wall-mount. You may choose to use the

supplied wall-mount bracket if you want the speaker to protrude a

bit more from the wall (total depth without the bracket is 1.5 inches

[38mm] and 1.6 inches [40mm] with the bracket). The bracket is

padded with foam that may be useful for damping rattles or

vibrations between speaker and wall surface.

Follow these directions for wall mounting the speaker without

using the bracket.

1. The supplied cardboard mounting template is double-sided; one

side is for horizontal orientation and the other is for vertical

mounting. Be sure to face the correct side toward you. Hold the

cardboard template in the intended location. Make sure

the speaker clears the ceiling, adjacent walls, corners, beams,

lighting fixtures and door/window frames. Leave at least 1" (25 mm)

above or to the side of the speaker location to allow the speaker to

slide onto the screws.

2. Make sure the center of the template is centered with the TV

screen’s center points.

3. When mounting the speaker horizontally, use a bubble level to

make sure the template is level.

When mounting the speaker vertically, use a plumb line to find

perfect vertical. If the TV is off-level or off-plumb, the speaker will

look better if it is off-level or plumb in exactly the same way as the TV.

5. Use push pins to secure the template to the wall.

6. Make pencil marks in the holes labeled “Pilot Hole (for mounting

without bracket)”; remove the template.

If you intend to place the Mythos XTR-50 on a TV or shelf

in a horizontal orientation, see page 3.

7. Pre-drill the pilot-hole locations for mounting screws (not included).

Use screws rated to hold securely in the wall material and have

screw heads (flat or panhead are acceptable) at least 0.33 inch

(8.5mm) in diameter.

8. It is best if at least one screw hits a wall stud.

If there is no stud behind the pilot-hole

location, install wall anchors (not included)

to secure the bracket screws. [Figure 5] Follow

the wall anchor manufacturer’s directions.

Each wall anchor should be rated to hold at

least one half of the product net weight

[see specifications on page 1].

9. For masonry walls, use a masonry drill bit to

pre-drill holes, and use masonry anchors and

screws (not included).

10. Drive in the screws until the head is approxi-

mately 0.12 inch (3mm) away from the wall.

If the screws are driven too close to the wall,

you will not be able to slip the speaker onto

the screw heads. If the screws are not close

enough to the wall, the speaker will be loose

and may rattle when played.

11. Push the speaker connector into the female receptacle on the back

of the speaker (see page 2).

12. Line up the speaker so that the screws enter the center part of the

+ shaped channels; slide the speaker down so that the screw heads

hold the speaker in place. [Figure 4]

13. Gently pull on the speaker to make sure the screws are firmly

holding the speaker.

14. If the speaker is not held tightly to the wall, drive the screws in a

little deeper and try again.

Follow these directions for installing the speaker with the wall-

mounting bracket.

1. The supplied cardboard mounting template is double-sided; one

side is for horizontal orientation and the other is for vertical

mounting. Be sure to face the correct side toward you. Hold the

cardboard template in the intended location. Make sure

the speaker clears the ceiling, adjacent walls, corners, beams,

lighting fixtures and door/window frames. Leave at least 1" (25 mm)

above or to the side of the speaker location to allow the speaker to

slide onto the screws.

2. Make sure the center of the

template is centered with the TV

screen’s center points.

3. When mounting the speaker

horizontally, use a bubble level to

make sure the template is level.

When mounting the speaker vertically, use a plumb line to find

perfect vertical. If the TV is off-level or off-plumb, the speaker will

look better if it is off-level or plumb in exactly the same way as the TV.

5. Use push pins to secure the template to the wall.

6. Make pencil marks in the holes labeled “Pilot Hole”;

remove the template.

7. Pre-drill the pilot-hole locations for mounting screws (not included).

Use flat head screws rated to hold securely in the wall material and

have screws heads between 0.25 inch (6.4mm) and 0.33 inch

(8.4mm) in diameter.

8. It is best if at least one screw hits a wall stud. If

there is no stud behind the pilot-hole location,

install wall anchors (not included) to secure the

bracket screws. [Figure 5] Follow the wall anchor

manufacturer’s directions. Each wall anchor should

be rated to hold at least one half of the product net

weight [see specifications on page 1].

9. For masonry walls, use a masonry drill bit to

pre-drill holes, and use masonry anchors and

screws (not included).

10. Secure the bracket to the wall with screws driven

into the pilot holes or wall anchors. Bracket should

be tight to the wall, and screw heads should be

flush with the bracket.

11. Attach the supplied male connector to the speaker

wire and plug the connector into the receptacle on

the speaker (see page 2).

12. Line up the speaker so that the mounting heads enter the center

part of the + shaped channels; slide the speaker down so that the

mounting heads hold the speaker in place. [Figure 6]

13. Gently pull on the speaker to make sure the screws are firmly

holding the speaker.

Mounting the Mythos XTR-50 to an

articulating TV bracket

If you have a Plasma or LCD TV that is attached to the wall via a

swing-out articulating bracket such as those offered by Chief and

Sanus, consult the TV bracket manufacturer’s user manual for

specific speaker mounting instructions.

Shelf/Table Mounting

If you are going to use the Mythos XTR-50 in horizontal mode on a

shelf or table, first attach the two supplied

rubber pads to the bottom edge of the speaker.

[Figure 7] Assemble the L-brackets to the

threaded holes in the back of the speaker using

the 1/4 20 x 12mm long screws provided.

[Figure 8] Thread the foot screws into “L”

brackets and adjust to tilt the speaker up or down to aim

the speaker toward seated listener ear height.

If you are going to vertically mount the speaker on

a shelf or table, do not attach the wall mount

bracket to the speaker. Follow these steps:

1. Assemble the shelf stand using [Figure 9] as a guide.

2. Pass the speaker wire through the wire channel

and attach the male speaker connector to the

speaker wire as shown on Page 2.

3. Assemble the provided screw and square-neck nut onto the lower

hole in the back of stand leaving a 3mm gap between the nut

flange and the stand. [Figure 10]

4. Line up the center of the + shaped channel with the square-neck

nut on the stand and push the speaker in and down on the nut.

5. Thread the provided 1/4 20 screw through the top hole in the

stand into the threaded hole in the speaker and tighten the screw.
