Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of this Precision Architectural Loudspeaker system and thank you for choosing Parasound. The PAL-80, PAL-65, and PAL-45 Precision Architectural Loudspeakers were developed using the finest driver and crossover components available. Countless hours of computer modeling were spent to insure accurate audio reproduction in a variety of installations where placement compromises are sometimes unavoidable.
Observing Correct Speaker Wire Polarity When you connect speakers to your amplifier, you will notice that one side of the two conductor speaker wire will have some sort of mark: either printing, a raised ridge on the insulation, or a different color of conductor to let you know which wire to connect to the positive and which to the negative speaker terminals so you can repeat the connection on the power amplifier's binding posts.
Three Position Treble Adjustment The High adjustment slide switch on the front of the speaker allows you to adjust the tweeter level - 3 dB or +3 dB from its 0 dB middle position. If you are mounting the speaker in a “live” room with many reflective surfaces, you may want to attenuate its treble response. Conversely, if you are mounting the speaker in a “dead” room with many absorbent surfaces, you may want to boost its treble response. Installing Precision Architectural Loudspeakers 1.
