5 system

For optimal performance, use the following guidelines to choose locations and positions for

the Acoustimass

®

module, speakers, and the control pod. Refer to Figure 2, which shows a

typical system setup.

Positioning the speakers

Proper positioning of the speakers will allow you to experience the audio surround effects

that your Companion

®

5 multimedia speaker system is designed to deliver.

• Place the left and right speaker to the left and right of your computer monitor at about an

arm’s length away from where you are seated (Figure 2). The bead on each speaker cord is

marked L (left) or R (right) to identify left/right placement.

• For optimum performance, position each speaker the same distance from you, and no

more than 24 inches (61 cm) apart.

• Aim both speakers straight ahead. Do not angle them inward or outward.

• Keep the speakers away from adjacent large objects or cabinet surfaces. For example, if

your computer desk includes a hutch, keep the outside edge of each speaker at least six

inches away from any adjacent surface. Avoid placing the speakers inside cubby holes.

Positioning the Acoustimass

®

module

The Acoustimass

®

module is designed to be the unseen part of the speaker system.

For example, you can place it under your computer table or desk.

• Put one rubber foot on each corner of the

bottom panel of the module.

• Stand the module on its feet on a flat surface.

• DO NOT BLOCK the front grille of

the module.

• DO NOT lay the module on its side or stand it

upside down.

• DO NOT put any objects or equipment behind

it or beside it that may block the ventilation

openings at the rear of the module. Adequate

ventilation is necessary to prevent the module

from overheating.

• Place the module at least 6 inches (15 cm)

away from the computer and computer monitor

to prevent the module from interfering with your

computer system.

• Keep the module away from heat sources such as radiators, baseboards, or quartz

heaters.

• Make sure the power cord can reach an AC (mains) outlet and the USB cable can reach

the USB connection on your computer.

CAUTION: Do not place computer monitors, floppy disks, hard drives, or other magnetic media

within 6 inches (15 cm) of the Acoustimass module. The magnetic field produced by this module

can erase magnetic media and interfere with the monitor.

Making system connections

The following steps and Figure 3 tell you how to make the system connections.

Before you start:

• Please read the entire setup procedure.

• Make sure your computer is on and the operating system is running.

• IMPORTANT: Close all other software applications.

1. Insert the red plug on the right (R) speaker cable into the R jack and insert the white plug

on the left (L) speaker cable into the L jack. The R and L marks on the plugs must face up

for each plug to fit correctly into its respective jack.

2. Plug the control pod cable into the Control Pod jack.

3. Plug one end of the power cord into the AC Input jack on the rear panel of the

Acoustimass

®

module. Plug the other end into an AC (mains) outlet.

Some Companion 5 systems include a small AC power switch on the back of the

Acoustimass module, just above the AC Input jack. When your Companion 5 system

is connected to an AC power outlet, you can use that switch to turn off power to your

system to conserve electricity.

4. Plug the appropriate end of the USB cable (supplied) into the To Computer jack on the

Acoustimass module. Plug the other end into a USB jack on your computer.

IMPORTANT: For optimum performance, connect the USB cable directly to a

USB jack on your computer rather than connecting through a USB hub.

OPERATION

System modes

There are three system modes. Each system mode is identified by the color of the mode indi-

cator on the control pod (Figure 13):

• Muted (Amber): The system speakers are silenced. You hear no audio from the computer

or any connected source. This mode is automatically selected when you connect head-

phones to the control pod.

• Active (Green): You hear the active sound source from the system speakers. The position

of the volume control ring sets the volume level.

• Inactive (Red): When both the USB connection from your computer and the input

signal of a connected audio source are inactive for several minutes, the system mutes

the speakers and switches to a reduced power mode. The system returns to the Muted

mode when the USB connection becomes

active again.

Touch the top center of the control pod to switch between the Muted and Active mode,

except when headphones are connected.

Plugging in headphones always puts the system

in Muted Mode until they are removed.

IMPORTANT!

• The Companion

®

5 multimedia speaker system is designed to perform at its best

without any additional audio effects. Make sure you disable any audio effects

settings and close any effects applications running on your computer.

• Make sure the settings in your software application are correct for 5.1 surround

sound.

Controlling the volume

The volume control ring on the control pod (Figure 13) is the master volume control for any

audio coming from your computer or a device connected to the input jack. Rotate the ring

clockwise to increase the volume or counterclockwise to decrease it.

To set the volume level

To properly set the volume level, you need to adjust both the volume level of the source (your

PC or a connected source) and the Companion 5 system:

1. Set the Companion 5 system volume to minimum.

2. Set the source volume near maximum.

3. Start playing music.

4. Slowly increase the volume on the Companion 5 system control pod until the sound

reaches a comfortable level.

To mute the system

To silence the system, touch the mode switch on the control pod (indicator glows Amber).

Touch it again to unmute (indicator glows Green).

Note: The system output may be reduced by an internal protection feature if you play music at

full volume for a long period of time.

• Make sure the speaker cord plug on the speaker in question is fully inserted into its jack

on the Acoustimass module.

different sound source to the control pod. If the Companion 5 speaker system operates

properly, the problem is in the original sound source. If the problem remains, then the

problem is in the Acoustimass module.
