I PNFINITY RIMUS®SERIES
The Primus series of loudspeakers continues Infinity’s longstanding
commitment to accurate sound reproduction. Our proprietary Metal
Matrix Diaphragm™(MMD®) drivers, precision dividing networks, and
rigid, well-braced enclosures combine to deliver uncompromised
performance in any stereo or multichannel home theater system.
In addition, Primus series speakers are magnetically shielded for safe
placement adjacent to a television.
UNPACKING THE SPEAKERS
If you suspect damage from transit, report it immediately to your dealer.
Keep the shipping carton and packing materials for future use.
PLACEMENT
Stereo
Before deciding where to place your Primus speakers, survey your room
and think about placement, keeping the following points in mind, using
Figure 1 as a guide:
• For best results, place the speakers 6'– 8' apart.
• Position each speaker so that the tweeter is approximately at ear level.
• Generally, bass output will increase as the speaker is moved closer to a
wall or corner.
• Refer to the “Home Theater”section if you also plan to use the speak-
ers for home theater reproduction.
Figure 1. Experiment with speaker placement to obtain the best
bass level and stereo imaging in your room.
Home Theater
For front-channel use, place one speaker on the left and another on the
right, along either side of the television monitor. Since the speakers are
magnetically shielded, you can place them without worrying about the
field distorting the TV picture.
For surround use, place speakers alongside the listening position.
Final placement depends on room acoustics, availability of space,
and your listening preference (Figures 2 and 3).
The center channel speaker should be placed on top of or directly below
the television and aimed toward the listening area.
NOTE: An Infinity powered subwoofer will add impact and realism to both
music and film soundtracks. Contact your Infinity dealer for recommenda-
tions on subwoofer models for your application.
