Placing Speakers
Satellite Speakers
Arrange the satellite speakers to suit your listening tastes — from right
next to the monitor to as far apart as the speaker cords allow.
For optimum sound, satellite speakers should be placed at or slightly above
ear level, and in an arrangement that offers the most satisfying results.
Note: The satellite speakers ARE magnetically shielded and can be placed
close to video displays such as TVs and computer monitors without
distorting the image.
Making Connections
Warning: Do not insert the speaker system's power plug into a wall outlet
until all connections are made. Also, turn off audio source (i.e., your PC,
MP3 player, Sony PlayStation, etc.) before connecting the outputs to the
speaker system's inputs.
To ensure first-time operation as expected, please carefully follow the
connection sequences described below in the order indicated.
Inputs
Various connection schemes between your audio source and the speaker
system are available. Determine if you'll be setting up the speaker system
for PC audio/PC gaming, DVD playback, console gaming or with portable
audio devices (such as MP3 or portable CD players), then skip to the
appropriate section.
PC Audio/PC Gaming/DVD Playback
All PC sound cards have audio outputs. Typically, the outputs will be marked
as "front output" and "rear output." In some cases, slightly different
terminology may be used. The sound card's documentation should help you
determine which outputs to use with your speaker system.
Connect the lime green 3.5mm stereo cable (hardwired into the right
satellite) to the lime green input labeled "FRONT" on your sound card.
Two-Piece Powered
Audio System
Console Gaming
(Requires the use of the Console Gaming Y-Adapter, which is not included.
This adapter can be purchased at www.alteclansing.com.)
Most console game systems feature dual-RCA outputs. To connect your
speakers, follow the steps below:
1. Make sure the power to your console gaming system is turned off.
2. The Console Gaming Y-Adapter has a lime green 3.5 mm stereo jack on
one end and two RCA jacks on the other — one red and one white.
3. Locate the red and white RCA plugs on the end of the cable connected to
the back of your console gaming system. Connect them to the matching
red and white RCA jacks on the Console Gaming Y-Adapter.
4. Connect the lime green 3.5mm stereo cable (hardwired into the right
satellite) to the lime green input on the Console Gaming Y-Adapter.
Portable Audio Devices (MP3, Portable CD Players, etc.)
Connect the lime green 3.5mm stereo cable (hardwired into the right
satellite) to the headphone jack on your portable audio device.
Powering On
1. After all other connections are made, plug the AC power cord into a wall
outlet. The speaker system is now ready to operate.
2. Turn on the audio source.
3. Turn on the speaker system by turning the master volume knob on the
right satellite until you hear a click sound. An LED will light on the front
of the right satellite when the power is ON.
Note: To avoid hearing a popping sound when you turn on your Altec
Lansing speaker system, always turn on your audio source first.
Volume
The VOLUME knob on the right satellite controls the master volume. Turn
the knob clockwise to increase the volume and counterclockwise to
decrease the volume.
Tone Control
The second knob on the right satellite controls tone. Turn the knob
clockwise to increase treble and counterclockwise to decrease treble.
Headphones
To use headphones with the system, plug them into the labeled
jack on the right satellite. When headphones are connected, the speaker
system is muted.
