Note that one of the terminals is marked with red band (+) and the other
is marked with black band (-). Make certain that you connect the wire
from the red (+) terminal of your amplifier or receiver to the red (+)
terminal on your speaker and the wire from the black (-) terminal of your
amplifier or receiver to the black (-) terminal on your speaker. Most
speaker wire has some indicator (such as color-coding, ribbing or writing)
on one of the two conductors to help you maintain consistency. It is
essential to connect both speakers to the amplifier in the same way (in
phase). If you experience a lack of bass or poor surround effect, it is likely
that one or more of the channels is connected in incorrect polarity and
needs to be rewired, paying closer attention to connect positive to
positive; negative to negative on all channels.
To connect wire to the binding post [see figure above], unscrew the
knurled nut and insert the bare wire into the hole near the base of the
binding post. Do not insert the insulated part of the wire into the hole as
this will not give you a good connection. Twist the hex nut back down
the binding post until it firmly meets the wire. Do not over-tighten.
Connect a single RCA cable from the “SUB OUT” of your receiver to the
LFE input of the subwoofer (not included). This connecting method
bypasses the subwoofer’s internal “crossover” or low pass filter and relies
on the crossover filter built into your receiver.
Receiver/Speaker Set-up
Access Your Receiver’s “Speaker Set-up” or “Speaker
Configuration” Menu
1. In the Speaker Set-up/Configure function of your receiver, set all
channels that are connected to Mythos Nines to “Small.”
2. Select “Yes” when asked if you are using a subwoofer.
3. Set the subwoofer crossover frequency on the receiver to 100 Hz.
Service
Service and warranty work on your Definitive loudspeakers will
normally be performed by your local Definitive Technology dealer.
If, however, you wish to return the speaker to us, please contact us
first, describing the problem and requesting authorization as well as
the location of the nearest factory service center. Please note that
the address given in this booklet is the address of our offices only.
Under no circumstances should loudspeakers be shipped to our
offices or returned without contacting us first and obtaining
return authorization.

Definitive Technology Loudspeaker Product (the “Product”) will be free from
defects in materials and workmanship for a period of five (5) years covering the
drivers and cabinets, and three (3) years for the electronic components from the
date of the original purchase from a Definitive Technology Authorized Dealer.
However, this warranty will automatically terminate prior to the expiration of
five (5) years for the drivers and cabinets and three (3) years for the electronic
components if the original retail purchaser sells or otherwise transfers the
Product to any other party. The original retail purchaser shall hereinafter be
referred to as “you.” Defective Products must be shipped, together with proof of
date of purchase, prepaid insured to the Authorized Dealer from whom you pur-
chased the Product, or to the nearest factory service center. Product(s) must be
shipped in the original shipping container or its equivalent; in any case the risk
of loss or damage in transit is to be borne by you. If, upon examination at the
Factory or a Definitive Technology Authorized Dealer, it is determined that the
unit was defective in materials or workmanship at any time during this Warranty
period, Definitive Technology or the Definitive Technology Authorized Dealer
will, at its option, repair or replace this Product at no additional charge, except as
set forth below. All replaced parts and Product(s) become the property of
Definitive Technology. Product(s) replaced or repaired under this Warranty will
be returned to you, within a reasonable time, freight collect.
This Warranty does not include service or parts to repair damage caused by
accident, misuse, abuse, negligence, inadequate packing or shipping procedures,
commercial use, voltage in excess of the rated maximum of the unit, cosmetic
appearance of cabinetry not directly attributable to defects in materials or work-
manship, or service, or repair or modification of the Product which has not been
authorized by Definitive Technology. Definitive Technology makes no Warranty
with respect to its Products purchased from dealers or outlets other than
Definitive Technology Authorized Dealers. This Warranty is in lieu of all other
expressed Warranties. If this Product is defective in material or workmanship as
warranted above, your sole remedy shall be repair or replacement as provided
above. In no event will Definitive Technology be liable to you for any incidental
or consequential damages arising out of the use or inability to use the Product,
even if Definitive Technology or a Definitive Technology Authorized Dealer has
been advised of the possibility of such damages, or for any claim by any other
party. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of consequential dam-
ages, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
All implied warranties on the Product are limited to the duration of this
expressed Warranty. Some states do not allow limitation on how long an implied
Warranty lasts, so the above limitations may not apply to you. This Warranty
gives you specific legal rights, and you also may have other rights which vary
from state to state.
