Definitive Technology Seven Speaker User Manual


 
Your new Mythos speakers are very flexible in terms of positioning
and placement options.
The Mythos Six will generally be positioned vertically. It can be easily
mounted on a wall using its unique mounting system. When attached to
its optional glass base, it can be placed on a tabletop, on a bookshelf or in
a cabinet, etc. The Mythos Seven is designed for horizontal mounting and
it can be easily mounted on a wall, using its unique mounting system.
It can also be placed on a tabletop, on top of a TV (if the top provides a
deep enough platform for stable placement), on a shelf, etc. when used
with its rear stabilizing/angle adjustment foot.
Please remember that although the following recommendations are
usually valid, all rooms and listening set-ups are somewhat unique, so
do not be afraid to experiment with the speakers. Remember, whatever
sounds best to you is correct.
Positioning Mythos Six as Left/Right Main Speakers
Because of its vertical orientation, the Mythos Six will normally be
used as a right or left main front speaker or as a rear or side surround
speaker. Nevertheless, it can certainly be used as a center speaker if its
vertical orientation is appropriate for a center speaker in your installation.
When used as left and right front speakers, the Mythos Sixes can be
placed right next to the TV with excellent results or may be separated by
a distance greater than the width of the TV. As with any speaker, a greater
separation (5 to 7 feet or more) will normally result in a bigger sound-
stage and this is recommended from a sonic point of view.

Please Inspect For Shipping Damage
Each loudspeaker leaves our plant in perfect condition. Any visible or
concealed damage most likely occurred in handling after it left our plant
and should be reported at once to your Definitive dealer or the delivery
company that delivered your loudspeaker. Please unpack your system
carefully. Save all cartons and packing materials in case you move or
need to ship your system. Record the serial number found on the back of
the Mythos loudspeakers in the appropriate place on your warranty card.
