BI-WIRING
The outer connection panel and internal dividing network of the Beta 40
and Beta 50 are designed so that separate sets of speaker cables can
be attached to the low-frequency transducer and midrange/high-
frequency transducer portions of this dividing network.This is called
bi-wiring. Bi-wiring can provide several sonic advantages and
considerably more flexibility in power amplifier selection.

FINAL ADJUSTMENTS
Check the speakers for playback, first by setting the system volume control
to a minimum level, and then by applying power to your audio system. Play
a favorite music or video segment and increase the system volume control
to a comfortable level.
NOTE: You should hear balanced audio reproduction across the entire
frequency spectrum. If not, check all wiring connections or consult
the authorized Infinity dealer from whom you purchased the system
for more help.
The amount of bass you hear and the stereo-image quality will be affected
by a number of different factors, including the room’s size and shape,
the construction materials used to build the room, the listener’s position
relative to the speakers, and the position of the speakers in the room.
Listen to a variety of music selections and note the bass level. If there is
too much bass, move the speakers away from nearby walls. Conversely, if
you place the speakers closer to the walls, there will be more bass output.
Nearby reflecting surfaces can adversely affect stereo-imaging quality. If
this happens, try angling the speakers slightly inward toward the listening
position until the optimum effect is achieved.
CARE OF YOUR SPEAKER SYSTEM
Each Beta Series enclosure has a wood-grain-vinyl finish that does not
require any routine maintenance. When needed, use a soft cloth to remove
any fingerprints or dust from the enclosure or grille.
NOTE: Do not use any cleaning products or polishes on the cabinet
or grille.
