For optimal performance in a home cinema setup, it is recommended to run the automatic room correction system (e.g., Audyssey, MCACC, YPAO) on your AV receiver. This will calibrate the speaker levels, distances, and equalization for your listening environment.
If manual setup is preferred, adjust the center channel level to ensure dialogue is clear and balanced with other channels.

The speaker comes with a magnetic grille. You can choose to use the speaker with or without the grille. For protection against dust and physical damage, attach the grille by aligning it with the front baffle; the magnets will hold it in place.
