USER INSTRUCTIONS: WH2.1 SYSTEM Introduction WH-C Centre Loudspeaker The Wharfedale WH-C centre speaker is a dedicated centre channel unit designed for mounting preferably above a TV screen (as show is position A) or below a TV screen (as show in postion B). If the unit is mounted on top of the television, move it forward so that the front grilles are level with or slightly in front of the screen. This will reduce reflections from the screen and the top of the cabinet. The loudspeaker should be located on a stable flat surface to avoid any danger of movement when it is vibrated by high sound levels. Centre Speaker Positioning The speaker is supplied with four self-adhesive feet. Apply one to each bottom corner of the unit before mounting. CONNECTION You will need a single length of twin core cable. Connect the red (+) terminal of the centre unit to the red (+) terminal of the amplifiers centre channel output. Connect the black (-) terminal of the centre unit to the corresponding black (-) terminal of the amplifier. The connection panel uses screw terminals - the drawing below illustrates the connection method. Leaving a stub of 5mm protruding from the wall. Align the hole in the mounting bracket over the screw head and carefully lower the unit onto the screw. The speaker should now be securely attached with the feet against the wall. Now connect the speakers to the amplifier. Preparing Speaker Cables Connecting Speaker Cables Centre Channel Connections RIGHT REAR LEFT CENTRE RIGHT FRONT LEFT USER INSTRUCTIONS: WH2.1 SYSTEM WH-SR1 and WH-SR2 Loudspeakers The Wharfedale WH-SR1 and WH-SR2 are bipolar units designed for wall mounting and intended for use solely as rear effects speakers. In a Home Theatre System, the directional cues come from the front and centre channels. The rear channels provide ambience and rear perspective and for this purpose a bipolar design with its mix of direct and reflected sounds ideal. To aid this effect we recommend placing the WH-SR1 and WH-SR2 speakers in a high position behind the listener. PREPARATION Each speaker is supplied with four self-adhesive feet. Apply one to each rear corner before mounting. CONNECTIONS You will need one length of twin core cable per speaker. Connect the red (+) terminal of the Left rear unit to the red (+) terminal of the amplifiers Left rear channel output. Connect the black (-) terminal of this unit to the corresponding black (-) terminal of the amplifier. Repeat for the Right speaker. The connection panel uses screw terminals - the drawing above illustrates the connection. MOUNTING Connect the cable to the speaker. Site the speakers about 600 mm above the listening position and 2.5-3.5 metres apart, central to the listener and behind the listening position. Ensure that the wall is sound and can support the product. Fix a suitable screw firmly to the wall. Preparing Speaker Cables Wall-mounting the WH-SR1 and WH-SR2 Loudspeakers Connecting Speaker Cables 1 Rear Channel Connections RIGHT REAR RIGHT 2 3 REAR LEFT CENTRE RIGHT FRONT AV AMPLIFIER LEFT REAR LEFT USER INSTRUCTIONS: WH2.1 SYSTEM System Using WH-SR1 and WH-SR2 Surround Speakers A Home Theatre System using WH surround speakers FRONT LEFT CENTRE channel speakers should be operated at the same height and with the tweeters at ear level to a seated listener. REAR CHANNELS If the rear channels are WH-SR1 or SR2 surround units, mount them as already described. We recommend placing the speakers in a high position, angled towards the listener. SUBWOOFER SUB WOOFEER FRONT RIGHT As the ear is unable to detect the direction from which deep bass originates, this allows freedom in positioning the subwoofer. Varying the distance from the wall will alter the amount of bass. Some prefer to place the subwoofer against a corner of the room. This arrangement gives more bass at the possible expense of clarity. LOUDSPEAKER SIZES Many digital AV processors require you to specify the size of speakers in the various channels. These are usually 'Large' or 'Small'. REAR RIGHT REAR LEFT Set the subwoofer options on the processor to 'On' or 'Yes'. This will route all the deep bass to the subwoofer. System using conventional rear speakers FRONT LEFT CENTRE Unless your loudspeakers are large floor standing units, you should choose 'Small' for the front channels, as the subwoofer is going to be better at providing clean, deep, and louder bass. Choose 'Small' for the surround channels and also for the centre channel. SETTING LEVELS SUB WOOFEER FRONT RIGHT Once the loudspeaker setting have been finalised, put the AV amplifier in to its test mode (see instructions supplied with your processor.). Adjust the levels until all channels are reproduced at equal loudness. NOTE: On some programme material the surround channel may seem lower than the front. Do not readjust this level. You may, however, need to adjust the subwoofer output level. Avoid setting too high a level or you will swamp the sound with bass which may be tiring to listen to and may limit the subwoofer's ability to respond to large bass transients. Set a sensible level going into the subwoofer from the AV processor. The volume control on the subwoofer should be between 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock. LFE REAR LEFT REAR RIGHT FRONT AND CENTRE CHANNELS The front channel loudspeakers should be placed on either side of the television screen, 2 to 3 metres apart, and rotated slightly towards the listeners. As the centre speaker carries the dialogue effects, it should be placed central to the listening position and close the TV screen. Operating height is important. Ideally, the front and centre The Low Frequency Effects channel was designed as an additional bass channel with its own dedicated subwoofer. In practice however, if all the speakers are set to 'Small', the LFE channel will be combined with the bass from other channels and all this feeds into the subwoofer. When you set the LFE level from your AV processor, use care with this setting as the LFE channel may contain powerful low frequencies which, although normal in a cinema, may overload a domestic subwoofer. If, during a programme, you hear popping or thumping noises coming from the subwoofer, immediately turn the AV processor volume level down and then back off the LFE level. USER INSTRUCTIONS: WH2.1 SYSTEM If this does cure the problem, back off the volume level at the subwoofer. Please read the relevant sections of your AV amplifier manual and familiarise yourself with the various issues. If you are unsure, consult your dealer for help. CONNECTING WIRES When wall mounting a loudspeaker the connecting cables may be unacceptably obvious. It may be less obstrusive to route cables from the loudspeaker to the ceiling and then within or immediately underneath the ceiling or covering. The cable may then return to floor level at a convenient room corner. Service and Warranty The loudspeaker cabinets can be cleaned with a damp cloth or with a spray furniture polish and a soft cloth. Apply the spray sparingly to the cloth and then polish the cabinet. Never apply spray directly to the cabinet.
