RECOMMENDED PRIME ELEVATION PLACEMENT OPTIONS . Down-Firing Height Effects Speaker New audio formats such as DTS:X®, Aura-3D® and others make use of object based "height effect'' speakers to create an even more immersive audio experience. Most height effect speakers rely on a flawed technique in which soundwaves radiating from the speakers bounce off the ceiling before reaching your ears. This requires perfect room conditions, as well as the speakers to be · frequency response limited to be effective.

RECOMMENDED PRIME ELEVATION PLACEMENT OPTIONS Up or Down-Firing Center Channel Speaker The SVS Prime Elevation is an ideal center channel speaker solution when placement at ear level is not possible. Because of its angled front baffle, it can be placed on a piece of furniture below a TV and angled up, or high on the wall above a screen and angled down toward the listening area.

RECOMMENDED PRIME ELEVATION PLACEMENT OPTIONS Side or Rear-Firing Surround Sound Speaker The SVS Prime Elevation offers great flexibility as a surround sound speaker in any set-up, but especially when placement on a side or rear wall is not optimal. As a side surround, the Elevation can be plao~d towards the back of the room in a front firing position. For rear surround channels, the speakers can be placed on a side wall in a rear firing position.

RECOMMENDED PRIME ELEVATION PLACEMENT OPTIONS _ B ipole or Dipole Surround Sound Speaker A pair of Prime Elevation speakers can be used together to make a traditional bipole or dipole surround speaker. To do this, you will use one surround channel from your AV receiver, and the speakers must be wired together in series. Bipole Mode - Bipole mode is recommended for home theater systems which have a 7.1 AV receiver and use dedicated side surround and rear surround speakers.

WIRING YOUR PRIME ELEVATION SPEAKERS The SVS Prime Elevation Speakers include convenient gold-plated five-way binding posts, which accept wires terminated with banana plugs, speaker pins, spade connectors and bare wire. As with any speaker wire run, it's a smart idea to measure twice, cut once and allow an extra foot or two, just to be safe. Once you have the proper length, simply connect each speaker to the appropriate channel of your receiver or power amplifier.
