Placing Speakers
Speakers
Arrange the speakers to suit your listening tastes — from directly next
to the monitor to as far apart as the speaker cords allow.
NOTE: The 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 an AC
outlet until all connections are made. Also, turn off audio sources (i.e.,
your PC, MP3 player, console game, etc.) before connecting their
outputs to the 120's inputs.
To ensure first-time operation as expected, please carefully follow the
connection sequences described below in the order indicated.
Speakers
The speakers must be connected to each other and to the audio device.
First, insert the brown cable, which is connected to the left speaker,
into the right speaker output labeled "to left speaker." Next, connect
the right speaker to the audio device by inserting the lime green
3.5 mm stereo audio cable, which is connected to the right speaker,
into the audio output on your audio device. After this connection is
made, insert the plug of the AC adapter into the right speaker output
labeled "AC 9V 400mA output." You can now use your speakers.
Inputs
Various connection options between your audio source device and the
120 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 sources (such as MP3 or portable CD players), then skip
to the section with that title.
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.
1. Connect the lime green 3.5 mm stereo plug, which is connected to the
right speaker, into your sound card's input labeled "FRONT," which is
also lime green in color.
Console Gaming
(Requires the use of the AAC1 Y-adapter, which is not included. This
adapter can be purchased at www.alteclansing.com.)
Most console game systems feature dual-RCA outputs. Popular console
systems manufacturers include Sony™, Microsoft™, Nintendo™ and
Sega™. To connect your speakers, follow the steps below:
1. Make sure the power to your console gaming system is turned off.
2. The AAC1 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 AAC1 Y-
adapter cable.
4. Locate the lime green 3.5 mm stereo plug, which is connected to the
right speaker.
5. Insert the lime green 3.5 mm stereo plug into the lime green jack on
the AAC1 Y-adapter cable.
Portable Audio Devices (MP3, Portable CD Players, etc.)
1. Locate the lime green 3.5 mm stereo plug, which is connected to the
right speaker.
2. Insert the lime green 3.5 mm stereo plug into the headphone jack on
your portable audio device.
Headphones
To use headphones with the system, plug them into the labeled
jack on the front of the right speaker. When headphones are
connected, both speakers are muted.
Powering On
After all connections are made, plug the power cord located on the
rear of the right speaker, into an AC wall socket. The speaker system is
now ready to operate.
NOTE: To avoid hearing a popping sound when you turn on your Series
100 speaker system, always turn on your audio source first.
1. Turn on the audio source.
2. Turn on the speaker system by turning the volume control located on
the front of the right speaker . A green LED located on the front of
the right speaker will light when the power is on. The speaker system
is now ready to operate.
Master Volume
The knob on the front of the right speaker is the master volume
control for the speaker system. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the
volume and counter-clockwise to decrease the volume.
