C-Series
O W N E R S M A N U A L
We are proud to welcome you as an owner of ENERGY®Speaker Systems'
C-Series. ENERGY®Speakers are the result of extensive research into accurate
sonic reproduction and represent the leading edge in speaker design and
performance. The finest components and cabinet materials, combined with
sophisticated manufacturing and quality control procedures, ensure many years
of exceptional performance and listening pleasure.
Please take time to read all of the instructions contained in this manual to
make certain your system is properly installed and set up for optimal sound
reproduction. Be sure to unpack your system carefully. Retain the carton and all
packing material for future use.
UNPACKING
Using a knife carefully cut the tape to open the package. Fold the carton flaps
back and slide the speaker and packaging from the box. When removing the
C-300 or C-500 floorstanding speaker, stand the box upright, cut the tape and
slide the speaker from the box. Remove all inner packaging and parts.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The C-Series floorstanding models C-300 or C-500 are designed to be used
with spikes and feet for the speakers' bottom. It is important that these are
installed properly as they provide stability and also add to the cosmetic look of
the speakers.
CONTENTS:
4 - Self adhesive rubber bumpers
4 - Protective discs (C-300 or C-500 only)
4 - Spikes (C-300 or C-500 only)
4 - Nuts (C-300 or C-500 only)
1 - High gloss black plinth/base (C-300 or C-500 only)
BREAK-IN PROCEDURES
It is VITAL that your new C-Series speakers be allowed to break-in properly
before you perform any precise set up procedures, system adjustments, and
before you play them at higher volume levels. The best method of performing
the break-in is to play a full range musical passage at a moderate level as long
as possible. Utilizing the repeat function on your CD or DVD player can assist
greatly. Optimum sound will not be achieved until approximately 100 hours of
playing time. After break-in, the volume level can be increased. Do not play the
speakers at high levels until the break-in process has been completed. The
transducers need to “loosen up”, and until this occurs, damage can result to
the transducers.
PLINTH/BASES
The C-300 or C-500 floorstanding speakers come out of the box with high
gloss black plinth/bases attached to their bottom. The plinth/bases are
removable if you so choose, by unscrewing the 4 round head machine bolts
that attach the plinth/base to the cabinet. Care should be taken to not
damage the speaker or plinth/base during removal. Plinth/bases ensure a larger
surface area, and therefore provide greater stability to the speaker. Please see
diagram 1.
SPIKES
Spikes are included with every floorstanding speaker and are designed to
decouple the speaker from the floor. With the speaker upside-down (be sure to
protect the speaker surface when doing this), insert the spikes into the
threaded insert in the plinth/base. Using the supplied wrench, tighten the nut
on each spike, to ensure a sturdy and stable footing is established. The nuts
also allow for the speaker balance to be fine tuned when the speaker is
standing up, ensuring the speaker is level and plumb. If your flooring is
hardwood or a hard surface like tile, laminate flooring, etc, the included
protective discs are designed to be placed between the spike and the floor,
with the padded side down, to protect your flooring. Simply lay the protective
discs on the floor and position the speaker so the point of the spike fits into
the hole in the top of the protective disc. If you have removed the plinth/base,
spikes can be inserted directly into the threaded inserts in the bottom of the
speaker. When using carpeting, ensure no wiring beneath the carpeting is
pierced by the spike.
If you do not wish to use spikes or spikes with protective discs, self adhesive
rubber bumpers are included, to protect hardwood or hard surface floors. DO
NOT SLIDE THE SPEAKER WITH THE SPIKES INSTALLED, THIS WILL DAMAGE
YOUR FLOORS AND YOUR SPEAKERS. Please see diagram 2.
MAGNETIC SHIELDING
While all C-Series speakers are magnetically shielded, stray magnetic fields can
still exist. Placing your C-Series speakers on top or beside your CRT based
television should not cause any interference. In the case where there is some
minor discoloration, simply move the speaker forward or backwards or away
from the television a few inches, this generally resolves the issue. Note: LCD,
DLP and Plasma displays do not suffer from magnetic interference.
CONNECTING YOUR SPEAKERS
All of the models in the C-Series have the same high quality plated binding
post connectors, so connection to each channel offers the same options. You
should utilize high quality speaker cables, up to 12 gauge (AWG). The C-Series
will accept a variety of connector types including spade lugs, banana jacks, or
pin type connectors. The best connector in our opinion is the "Spade lug" as it
provides more contact area with the terminal and allows the binding post to be
tightened for a secure connection. Audiophiles and novices alike have
preferences as to which connector type they favor, speak with your Authorized
ENERGY®retailer as to which is the best for your Audio Video System. Rest
assured, plain speaker wire is more than acceptable, you can always upgrade
your wires and/or connectors later on.
In the case where you wish to use banana type plugs, simply
unscrew the binding post nut in a counter clock-wise fashion, until it
comes completely off. Remove the plastic red or black insert and
reconnect the binding post nut. The plastic insert is a mandatory
security measure, as dictated by many local and federal government
associations. Please see diagram 3.
To Connect your speaker system: Start at one speaker, and connect one
channel at a time, starting with the front speakers. Always ensure that the
entire A/V system is powered OFF before performing any connections. The
positive and negative (red and black) sides of the speaker terminals MUST
match the positive and negative (red and black) terminals of the receiver or
amplifier. If they do not match, abnormal sound and a lack of bass response
will result. After connecting the front speakers, connect the rest of the speakers
to their appropriate channels of the receiver or amplifier. The three connection
methods and their explanations include:

IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS –
READ CAREFULLY!

TRADITIONAL CONNECTION METHOD
(PLEASE SEE DIAGRAM 4)
1) Using your choice of speaker wire and termination method, connect the
speaker cable (minding the positive and negative polarities), to the lower set
of connectors. Ensure the terminals are tight. The gold “shorting straps” that
connect the lower and upper connections must remain in place.
2) Repeat the procedure for the second speaker.
BI-WIRE METHOD (PLEASE SEE DIAGRAM 5)
This method involves using multiple cables and connectors, to access both sets
of terminals on the C-Series loudspeakers simultaneously. The benefit of bi-
wiring is to reduce noise, and reduce the likelihood of grounding problems, as
you will have twice the thickness of cable between the amp and speakers as
the traditional method would provide. For more details on the benefits of bi-
wiring, please discuss this with your authorized ENERGY®retailer.
NOTE: Before starting, remove the gold “shorting straps”, which connect
the top and bottom set of input terminals. To remove the straps, loosen all
of the connectors and pull the straps away from the binding posts. Make
sure you put them in a safe place for future use.
1) Using your choice of speaker wire and termination method, connect one
speaker cable from the amplifier (minding the positive and negative
polarities) to the top set of connectors. Ensure the terminals are tight.
2) Next, connect the second cable, from the same channel of your amplifier to
the lower set of terminals.
3) Repeat the procedure for the second speaker.
BI-AMPLIFICATION METHOD
(Please see diagram 6)
This connection system involves the use of two separate two channel amplifiers
to power one set of speakers. The idea is to have one stereo amplifier
connected to one speaker, and another identical amplifier powering the second
speaker. This is often referred to as “Vertical” Bi-amplification. It is the only
method ENERGY®recommends.
NOTE: Before starting, remove the gold “shorting straps”, which connect
the top and bottom set of input terminals. To remove the straps, loosen all
of the connectors and pull the straps away from the binding posts. Make
sure you put them in a safe place for future use.
1) Using your choice of speaker wire and termination method, connect one
speaker cable from the amplifier (minding the positive and negative
polarities) to the top set of connectors. Ensure the terminals are tight.
2) Next, connect the second cable, from the amplifier's other channel to the
bottom set of terminals, again ensuring a tight connection.
3) Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for the second speaker using the second amplifier.
POSITIONING AND INSTALLING
YOUR SPEAKERS
LEFT AND RIGHT MAIN SPEAKERS
(C-50, C-100, C-200, C-300, C-500)
The main speakers are usually placed in the front of the room, on either side of
the TV or video projector. They should be placed a minimum of 6 feet apart,
and if the furniture placement allows, keep them at least 12 inches from all
walls. To calculate the best placement, measure the distance between the
speakers themselves and the listening position. Your distance from the speakers
should be roughly 1.5 times the distance the speakers are apart from each
other. For example: If the distance between each speaker and the listening
position is 9 feet, then the speakers should be 6 feet apart from one another.
This will provide excellent stereo separation and imaging for music playback.
This is just a starting point, the room's acoustics and furniture placement will
vary the placement of the speaker. Use your best judgment and experiment
with speaker placement. Slight adjustments can provide significant
improvements in performance.
C-50, C-100, C-200
The C-50, C-100, C-200 are designed to be used as a front left or right
speaker, or as a rear channel speaker. When installing the C-50, C-100 or
C-200 bookshelf speakers to a wall, there is an insert built into the back of the
speaker, located above the input terminals. The threaded insert is designed
specifically for the ENERGY®Macromount™ bracket, which is available from
your local authorized ENERGY®retailer. Please see diagram 7.
When the C-50, C-100 or C-200 are to be installed on a bookshelf or on a
stand, please attach the 4 rubber bumpers to the bottom of the speaker, as this
will protect both the mounting surface and the speaker from damage. Simply
peel the bumper off its sheet and stick it in place on the bottom of the speaker,
one bumper per corner. The rubber bumpers also help decouple the speaker
from the bookshelf or stand. Please see diagram 8.
C-C50, C-C100
When the C-C50 or C-C100 is used as a center speaker, it is ideally placed as
close to the center of the TV or video projector as possible. This is to ensure
that voices and all sounds come from the performer's placement on screen. This
may be on top, underneath, or on a shelf within a wall unit or other furniture.
Use the position that provides the best sound quality, but keep in mind safety
and room décor as well. The center channel works best when the front of the
speaker is flush with the TV, or the shelf it rests on. If the center speaker is
recessed in its placement, it will sound distant, and undefined in character.
Please see diagram 9.
When the C-C50, C-C100 are to be installed on top of a television, in a cabinet
or on a shelf, please attach the 4 rubber bumpers to the bottom of the speaker,
as this will protect both the mounting surface and the speaker from damage.
Simply peel the bumper off its sheet and stick one bumper in each corner on
the speaker. Please see diagram 8.
