Before deciding where to put your Compositions Overture speakers, survey your room and think about placement, keeping the following points in mind: ◆ For best results, try placing the speakers closer together than the distance to the listening area. ◆ Refer to Figure 3 when placing speakers for best bass level and stereo image (also see Operating The System on page 6). Figure 3.
Overture 2/3 Ins 9/11/98 4:23 PM Page 5 WIRING THE SYSTEM TURN OFF ALL POWER... IMPORTANT! After placing the speakers, you are ready to connect your system. First turn off all audio system power. Use high-quality speaker wire to make your connections. For speaker connections, use #18 gauge speaker wire (or #16 for runs over 25 feet) with polarity coding. The side of the wire with a ridge or other coding is usually considered negative polarity (i.e., – ).
