PRO CS-5 Center-Channel Speaker System
Your Optimus PRO CS-5 Center-
Channel Speaker System is specially-
designed for use as a center channel
speaker in your surround-sound audio/
video system, giving you wide-angle
sound and clear movie dialogue and
action. It is magnetically shielded, so
you can place it directly on top of your
television for the most efficient center-
channel effect.
The speaker’s two 5-inch woofers are
designed to produce the lower-
frequency bass sounds (70 to 2.5
kHz), while the single 3

tweeter’s pliable diaphragm is de-
signed to produce the high-frequency
treble sounds (2 to 25 kHz). The tweet-
er’s unique design virtually eliminates
all physical limitations to high-frequen-
cy sound production.
The speaker’s acoustics have been
carefully designed to match the speak-
er elements to the enclosure and its
damping materials. The result is an
amazingly smooth and broad frequen-
cy response that allows the system to
accurately produce both bass and tre-
ble sounds with extraordinarily low dis-
tortion.
While your PRO CS-5 can work with
most speaker systems, it is designed
to give the best results with Ra-
dioShack PRO X77 (Cat. Nos. 40-
2072 and 40-2077) or PRO LX5 (Cat.
No. 40-4061) speakers.
SPEAKER PLACEMENT
Correct speaker positioning is vital for
the best performance. Since your PRO
CS-5 center-channel speaker is de-
signed to reproduce the dialogue, its
best position is directly above or below
your TV’s screen.
Note
: To avoid possible television pic-
ture distortion, position the PRO CS-5
speaker above your TV so its front
edge is behind the TV’s front edge (the
speaker’s front is farther away from
you than the TV’s front).
