BETA ES250
IMPORTANT NOTE:The set of drivers closer to the monopole
setting indicator in Figure 3 should be installed toward the front
of the room.It does not matter whether the tweeter is positioned
above or below the woofer.This will ensure proper operation
and performance should the Monopole or Dipole position on
the surround mode configuration switch be selected.

Placement (Application 2)
When using the Beta ES250 as a rear speaker(s) in a 6- or
7-channel home theater system,refer to Figures 4 and 5.
The speaker(s) should be mounted on the rear wall facing the
listening area,between the side channel speakers.If you are
using one rear speaker,it should be mounted as close as
possible to the center of the listening area.When using two
rear speakers,they should be spaced evenly within the width
of the listening area.
Setting the Surround Configuration Selector
When used as a rear channel speaker in a 6- or 7-channel
system,it is recommended that the Surround Mode Configuration
Switch be set to Bipole,as shown in Figure 6.
Placement (Application 3)
The Beta ES250 also possesses the unique capacity to behave
as two distinct loudspeakers from one enclosure.This allows you
to use a single ES250 for both the left and right rear speakers
in a 7-channel system.
To utilize the ES250 in this application,follow these simple steps:
1.Decide where you want to mount the speaker. Ideally,it should
be mounted in the center of the rear wall,similar to how it would
be mounted in a 6-channel system (Fig.4).
2.Loosen the terminals and remove the strapping bars that
connect the two sets of terminals (Fig.9).
3.To ensure proper left/right connections,make sure that the
speaker is in the “upright”position.The label on the back of
the speaker should be readable,not upside down.
4.Connect the speaker wire for the RIGHT REAR speaker to
the top set of terminals (Fig.10).
5.Connect the speaker wire for the LEFT REAR speaker to
the bottom set of terminals (Fig.10).
6.Set the mode configuration switch to the Bipole position (Fig.6).
