Using the Built-In Keyhole Wall Mount
Your StudioMonitors have a built-in keyhole wall mount on the
back. If it has not been installed, install it over the recess that you can
feel behind the grill cloth on the upper back of your StudioMonitor
using the screws enclosed with the larger circular part of the keyhole
facing down making sure that the screws are securely and firmly
screwed in. Use a toggle or molly bolt to hold the screw which the
keyhole mount will hang on making sure that it is rated to support at
least 2 times the weight of the speaker.
Do not use on unanchored
screws in the wall.
Setting Bass and Treble Controls on Your
Receiver or Amplifier
Normally we recommend that you set the Bass and Treble controls
on flat or 0 dB. This will give you the most linear and natural sound.
Also, if your amplifier or receiver has a graphic equalizer, we recom-
mend that you leave it flat. The reason for this is that we have spoken
with many consumers about what they thought were improperly
sounding speakers when in fact the problem was misadjusted tone
controls. When in doubt, leave them flat; this almost always
sounds the best.

Home Theater Systems
A complete StudioCinema Home Theater System combines a pair
of StudioMonitors with a perfectly matched Definitive center channel
speaker (or an additional StudioMonitor used as a center channel),
perfectly matched Definitive rear and/or side surround speakers, and in
most cases a separate subwoofer for the LFE channel. These superb
systems offer exceptional home theater performance with all decoding
technologies. Remember, to achieve proper blending and full perfor-
mance, it is essential to use only Definitive speakers to complete your
home theater system.
