Placing Speakers
Satellite Speakers
Arrange the satellite speakers to suit your listening tastes — from right
next to the monitor to as far apart as the speaker cords allow.
For optimum sound, satellite speakers should be placed in a left/right
configuration, preferably apart and at equal distance from the center of the
listening area. This will offer the best stereo imaging and provide the most
satisfying results.
Note: The satellite speakers ARE magnetically shielded and can be placed
close to video displays such as TVs and computer monitors without
distorting the image.
Making Connections
Warning: Do not insert the speaker system's power plug into a wall outlet
until all connections are made. Also, turn off audio source (i.e., your PC,
MP3 player, Sony PlayStation, etc.) before connecting the outputs to the
speaker system's inputs.
To ensure first-time operation as expected, please carefully follow the
connection sequences described below in the order indicated.
Speaker System
To set-up the speaker system:
Plug the color-coded RCA cable hard-wired to the back of the left satellite
into the matching jack marked LEFT on the back of the right satellite.
Inputs
Various connection schemes between your audio source and the speaker
system are available. Determine if you'll be setting up the speaker system
for PC audio/PC gaming/DVD playback, for portable audio devices (such as
MP3 or portable CD players), or for console gaming and TV, then skip to the
appropriate section.
PC Audio/PC Gaming/DVD Playback
All PC sound cards have audio outputs. Typically, the outputs will be marked
as "front output" and "rear output." In some cases, slightly different
terminology may be used. The sound card's documentation should help you
determine which outputs to use with your speaker system.
1. Make sure the power to your computer is turned off.
2. Locate the lime green 3.5 mm stereo cable provided with your
speaker system.
3. Connect one end of the lime green 3.5 mm stereo cable to the matching
jack on the back of the right satellite, and the other end to the lime green
output labeled "FRONT" on your sound card.
Portable Audio Devices (MP3, Portable CD Players, etc.)
1. Make sure the power to your portable audio device is turned off.
2. Locate the lime green 3.5 mm stereo cable provided with this system.
3. Connect one end of the lime green 3.5 mm stereo cable to the matching
jack on the back of the right satellite, and the other end to the
headphone jack on your portable audio device.
Two-Piece Powered
Audio System
Console Gaming and TV
(Requires the use of the Console Gaming Y-Adapter, which is not included.
This adapter can be purchased at www.alteclansing.com.)
Most console game systems feature dual-RCA outputs. To connect your
speakers, follow the steps below:
1. Make sure the power to your console gaming system is turned off.
2. The Console Gaming Y-Adapter has a lime green 3.5 mm stereo jack on
one end and two RCA jacks on the other — one red and one white.
3. Locate the red and white RCA plugs on the end of the cable connected to
the back of your console gaming system. Connect them to the matching
red and white RCA jacks on the Console Gaming Y-Adapter.
4. Connect one end of the lime green 3.5 mm stereo cable to the matching
jack on the back of the right satellite, and the other end to the matching
jack on the Console Gaming Y-Adapter.
Powering On
1. After all other connections are made, plug one end of the power adapter
into the back of the right satellite and the other end into the AC wall
outlet. The speaker system is now ready to operate.
2. Turn on the audio source.
3. Access the controls by pressing on the LED/push button located on the
right satellite. The door will automatically pivot 90 degrees. Note: To close
the door, gently rotate it back to the closed position until you hear the
"click" of the locking mechanism. You can choose to expose the controls
by hiding the door under the satellite. To hide the door, lift the satellite
and let the door swing automatically 270 degrees under the satellite.
4. Turn on the speaker system by turning the master volume knob clockwise
on the right satellite until you hear a click sound. An LED will light on the
front of the right satellite when the power is ON.
Note: To avoid hearing a popping sound when you turn on your Altec
Lansing speaker system, always turn on your audio source first.
Volume Control
The VOLUME knob on the right satellite controls the master volume. Turn
the knob clockwise to increase the volume and counterclockwise to
decrease the volume.
Bass Control
The BASS knob on the right satellite controls the bass. Turn the knob
clockwise to increase the bass and counterclockwise to decrease the bass.
Treble Control
The TREBLE knob on the right satellite controls the treble. Turn the knob
clockwise to increase the treble and counterclockwise to decrease the treble.
Headphones
To use headphones with the system, plug them into the labeled
behind the pivoting door on the right satellite. When headphones are
connected, the speaker system is muted.
Auxiliary Input
This auxiliary or secondary input is located on the back of the right satellite.
Connect any audio source that has a stereo 3.5mm plug (i.e. headphone
style plug), including portable CD or MP3 players.
Caution: Make sure the audio source features a line-out jack. This will
ensure that the output is not amplified. Check the owner's manual for your
audio device for more information.
Note: You may need a cable that has RCA plugs on one end and a 3.5 mm
stereo male plug on the other or 3.5 mm stereo plugs on both ends. These
types of plugs may be purchased at most electronics stores.
