Boston Acoustics MCS 130 SURROUND - Manual (Page 5)

Operation
When using the MCS 100 Satellite, MCS130 Surround or MCS 130 LCR speakers in a Dolby Digital or DTS home theater system,
the receiver should be confi gured for “Small” speakers. When using the speakers in a Dolby Pro Logic® home theater system,
make sure the receiver’s center channel mode is set to “Normal.”
Some Dolby Digital-equipped receivers/processors off er diff erent setup options for each source or surround mode (e.g., CD-
stereo, videotape, Dolby Digital, Pro Logic). In each case, follow your equipment’s instructions to ensure that the subwoofer
output is turned on and that the speakers are set to “Small” in each mode.
If your receiver has adjustable crossover settings, we recommend the subwoofer crossover be set at 150Hz for the MCS 100
Satellite and 120 Hz for the MCS 130 Surround and LCR. Refer to the owner’s manual for you AV receiver for any additional
recommendations on system operation.
Maintenance and Service
The speaker enclosures may be cleaned using a damp cloth to remove fi ngerprints or to wipe off dust. All wiring connections
should be inspected, cleaned or reconnected at least once a year.
If a problem does occur, make sure that all connections are properly made, secure and clean. If a problem occurs in one
loudspeaker reconnect that speaker to a diff erent channel in the system. Should the problem persist in that speaker the
problem is in the speaker. If the speaker sounds fi ne in the new position it indicates a more in-depth issue with the electron-
ics in the system. In the event that your MCS series speaker ever needs service, contact your local Boston Acoustics dealer or
visit www.bostona.com for a list of dealers in your area.
