PSB IMAGE B5 (01) PDF SUMMARY:

How to get started with PSB speakers?

Be sure the power to your amplifier/receiver and other electronics is off before making connections. Install bumpers or feet with adjustable levelers or spikes. Connect the red (positive) terminal on each channel of your amp/receiver to a red terminal post on that channel’s speaker, and the black (negative) terminal to a black terminal post on the speaker. Setting the volume low beforehand, turn on your associated equipment, find a comfortable listening volume and enjoy your favorite audio and/or video selections.

Why should bumpers be installed on the speakers?

Attach the adhesive-backed bumpers near the corners of bookshelf and center channel speakers, to protect the finish of the speaker and the finish of the furniture beneath.

How should the support bar on center channel speakers be positioned?

Position the bar to aim the speaker toward the listening position.

How should the molded feet and stabilizers be installed?

If not already attached, screw the supplied molded feet into the threaded inserts located in the corners of the speaker bottom.

How should the spikes and rubber isolation bumpers be installed?

In some models, speaker spikes for carpet use or threaded rubber isolation levelers for hard floor use can be inserted into the feet. In other models, spikes or levelers go directly into the threaded inserts in the pedestal base on the bottom of the speaker rather than into feet.

How should the speakers be positioned?

Position your main speakers, as symmetrically as possible, at a comfortable listening distance–slightly closer to each other than they are to you.

What type and gauge of speaker wire should be used?

Use standard 18 gauge (1.0mm dia) lamp wire or better.

What should be done after setting up the speakers and listening to them?

Read through the booklet. Be sure to read “Protecting Your Investment.”

Why should electronic equipment be turned off before connecting speakers?

Severe damage to equipment and/or your ears may result if the equipment is left on.

What gauge wire is recommended for wiring distances under 25 ft?

18-gauge or 1.0 mm dia (lamp cord).

What gauge wire is recommended for wiring distances between 25-50 ft?

16-gauge or 1.3 mm dia (heater cord).

What gauge wire is recommended for wiring distances between 50-100 ft?

14-gauge or 1.6 mm dia.

What gauge wire is recommended for wiring distances over 100 ft?

12-gauge or 2.0 mm dia.

How should speakers be connected to the amplifier or receiver?

Connect speakers identically to your amplifier or receiver on each channel, being sure to connect the Red terminal to Red and Black to Black.

Why should speakers be connected in phase?

This will ensure that the diaphragms of the speakers on both channels move forward and backward together (“in-phase”), rather than in opposition (“out-of-phase”). In-phase connection provides maximum clarity and bass, while out-of-phase connection results in frequency cancellations and produces thinner and less distinct sound–with less bass, vague vocal quality, and no solid center image.

How can you ensure the speakers are connected in phase?

The two separate conducting wires in a standard two-conductor speaker cable are coded in one way or another to be distinguishable from each other. (The jacket of one wire may be ribbed or marked with “+” signs, or one wire under the insulation may be a different color from the other.) Use this wire-coding, together with the amp/receiver and speaker color-coding, to be sure you are connecting the same wire of a given pair to a like-coded terminal at both ends of your connection.

How should the wiring terminals be tightened?

Be sure all wiring terminals are tightened firmly secure, but be careful not to overtighten and damage the connectors.

What is the purpose of the metal jumper strap?

The metal jumper strap that connects the two sets of terminals on some of our speakers is removable. This allows you to connect either separate cables to the separated woofer and tweeter terminals (“bi-wiring”) or separate amplifiers (“bi-amping”).

What should be considered when bi-amping?

With Bi-Amp hookup, you must use either identical amplifiers or amplifiers adjusted to have the same voltage gain. Consult your PSB dealer for further information. (Illustrations are for one speaker hookup only). With single cable inputs, the jumper straps should be left in place.

What is the optimum placement height for main speakers?

The optimum placement height for main speakers is normally with their tweeters at about the same height as your ears when you are seated.

What is recommended for compact monitor speakers to achieve the right height?

For our compact monitors, we recommend using generally available accessory speaker stands to achieve the right height if you are not using existing shelves or furniture.

What can be done if the proper speaker height is not possible?

You may prefer to tilt the speakers towards ear level if the proper height is not possible.

What speaker and seating position will generally get the best imaging and other spatial qualities?

You will generally get the best imaging and other spatial qualities if your speakers and your usual seating position form an almost equilateral triangle, with the speakers not quite as far apart from each other as they are from you.

What can be done if you must sit closer to one speaker than the other?

Use the Balance control on your electronics (or the individual level controls on home theatre channels) to give the more distant speaker a balancing boost in volume.

How should speaker enclosures be positioned to get the best high-frequency dispersion?

The best high-frequency dispersion, producing the widest “sweet spot” in which you and others can sit and enjoy optimum high-frequency definition, will result when your speaker enclosures are positioned vertically rather than horizontally.

What will happen if you need to place compact monitor enclosures horizontally?

If you need to place compact monitor enclosures horizontally, the speakers will still perform very well, but the seating area where you will enjoy optimum sound will become more narrow.

How should the tweeters be positioned when placing compact monitor enclosures horizontally?

We suggest you position the tweeters to the outside away from the centerline.

What speaker positioning will produce the best convergence of high frequencies?

Aiming the speakers inward (“toeing them in”) about 5 to 10 degrees usually produces the best convergence of high frequencies where you listen. Different listening positions may require different toe-in.

How will the position of your speakers in relation to the walls, floor, and ceiling of your listening room affect their sound?

The position of your speakers with respect to the walls, floor, and ceiling of your listening room will often affect their sound in major ways.

What happens to the bass the closer you place speakers to the boundary surfaces of your room?

The closer you place speakers to the boundary surfaces of your room, the greater the proportion of bass in their overall sound. This is due to the enclosing, “focusing” effects of nearby surfaces on longer-wavelength (lower) frequencies.

What speaker placement will produce the most apparent bass?

Positioning the speakers near the intersection of two surfaces (wall and wall, wall and floor, or wall and ceiling) will produce more apparent bass than placement near a single surface.

What speaker placement will deliver the greatest proportion of bass?

The greatest proportion of bass is delivered by placement near three intersecting surfaces–in a room corner near the floor or ceiling, where the convergence of the two walls and the floor/ceiling produces an amplifying effect that is a bit like that of a megaphone.

What speaker placement will produce the least bass?

And the least bass comes from placing a speaker away from all boundaries.

What should decide what proportion of bass response seems right in your room?

Your own tastes should decide what proportion of bass response seems right in your room.

What effect will the combination of the three dimensions of your room have on the frequency response?

The combination of the three dimensions of your room generally will produce at least three points in the room where the frequency response you experience related to a given position (of either the speaker or you) will either greatly increase or almost disappear.

What frequencies are most obviously affected by the dimensions of your room?

The most obvious effects are on low frequencies, but mid-frequency effects, while usually subtler, are also often present.

What effect will small changes in the positioning of the speakers or listener have?

Keep in mind, then, that very small changes in positioning (of the speakers or you) may produce major or subtle changes.

What effect will the distance of speakers from the walls have?

Distances of speakers from the walls can make great differences in the number, strength, and particular frequencies of secondary reflections–changing frequency-balance, sonic spaciousness, and definition. Most listeners prefer their speakers at least a few inches from all walls, but the choice is yours to determine by listening.

How does where you sit in relation to your speakers affect the sound?

Where you sit in relation to your speakers obviously makes a difference too. The proportions of the particular triangle formed by your speakers and you matter. (You may need to send more power to the more distant speaker to compensate if you get much further from one speaker than the other.) The overall distances involved also matter.

What happens as you get further from the speakers?

As you get further from the speakers, more sound reflected from your room’s surfaces (in contrast to the sound coming directly from the speakers) reaches your ears, and the original spatial relationships in a recording are changed as your room “takes over.” Sometimes the result is a mellower, more “integrated” sound. Other times, it’s a more strident or annoyingly “echoey”–or other–quality.

What plays a part in how the sound is affected as you get further away from the speakers?

Once again, the particular dimensions of your room play a part. And depending on what seems more realistic and/or enjoyable to your ears, you may choose to sit at a great distance or have close-up, “near-field” sound.

What factors tend to work together to deliver the best high-frequency definition and imaging?

Keep in mind that the right “toe-in,” the right speaker height, and a reasonably symmetrical distance from the speakers all tend to work together to deliver the best high-frequency definition and imaging.

How might changing your position with respect to a room’s boundaries affect the sound?

Changing your own position with respect to a room’s boundaries may also bring a big effect, sometimes for a small change. Getting further from the wall behind you may make sound more precise and localized. Getting closer may make sound more “mellow” and integrated.

What might happen if you get too close to a wall?

Coming too close–to back wall, side wall, or (especially) a corner–may trigger a major sonic peak or cancellation of a certain band of frequencies. It depends on factors we can’t cover fully here but do get into on our website –www.psbspeakers.com.

What is the one certain rule about speaker placement?

As with so much else in life, the one certain rule is that you shouldn’t fix, or worry about, what isn’t broken (audibly in this case), especially if it means moving heavy furniture.

What is the idea when considering the relationships between the speakers, the room, and the listener?

As you consider the three relationships we have outlined, the idea is to manipulate whatever variable is easiest and most productive for improving your listening experience.

What recordings should be used to base your judgments on when considering speaker placement?

Be sure to base your judgements on listening to a good variety of recordings of vocals, and acoustic instruments, soloists, different movies and musical instruments to most easily recognize tonal balance shifts.

What will determine the sonic realism of movies and multi-channel audio?

Your surround speakers and how they are positioned will determine the sonic realism of movies and multi-channel audio.

What is surround sound meant to create?

Most surround sound is meant more to create greater depth and overall ambiance than to localize effects as coming from a particular spot.

What is especially true of Dolby Pro-Logic Surround sound?

This is especially true of Dolby Pro-Logic surround sound, in which both surround channels carry the same (monophonic) information and can’t be differentiated from each other.

What is true of Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound?

With Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound, there is a very definite localization of some surround effects.

What determines how much you prefer localized effects vs. overall sonic depth and diffusion?

How much you prefer these localized effects vs. overall sonic depth and diffusion is up to your listening preferences.

What might you want if listening to multi-channel music?

If you are listening to multi-channel music, you may want the maximum localization of instruments.

What do surround effects in movies tend to depend more on?

But if your main concern is the surround effects in movies, they tend to depend more on front-to-back movement than on specific localization.

How can you produce the surround sound effects you prefer?

You can locate and aim your surround speakers to produce the effects you prefer, whether precisely pinpointed or pleasantly diffused.

Where do most people find it easiest and best to mount compact monitor surround speakers?

Although some people prefer to have their surround speakers behind them on stands at ear height, most find it easiest and best to mount compact monitors on the walls, at least two feet above your ear height when you are seated.

What may produce the best overall surround illusion if your listening room is small?

If your listening room is small, aiming the speakers to diffuse their sound somewhat may produce the best overall surround illusion. They can be mounted, for instance, on the side walls and aimed to bounce sound off the rear walls, or vice versa.

How should surround speakers be positioned if you opt for localization of sound?

If you opt for localization of sound from the surrounds, the speakers should face your listening spot, aimed at or slightly above your seated position. Speakers mounted on the side walls generally will sound best when placed a foot or two behind your seating area.

What should you respect for full, year-after-year enjoyment from your speakers?

For full, year-after-year enjoyment from your speakers, you should respect their limits. They will produce room-filling volume in average-sized rooms–and handle peak momentary levels at those volumes without audible strain.

What playback should be avoided?

But avoid louder-than-life playback of music or movies, especially in large rooms. Even the most “bulletproof” speakers can be damaged by excessive volume levels, especially for long periods.

What should you not do when listening to music or movies at very loud volume?

When listening to music or movies at very loud volume, you shouldn’t turn up bass or treble all the way or close thereto.

Why shouldn’t you turn up bass or treble all the way up at loud volume?

This sends tremendously increased, disproportionate power into the speakers, and may well damage them.

What can be troublesome at high volume?

Some loudness compensation (“Loudness”) controls, which boost both bass and treble, can also be troublesome at high volume. They are intended only for low-volume listening.

What can happen when amplifiers and receivers are pushed to their limits to produce excessive volume levels?

Finally, you should be aware that when amplifiers and receivers are pushed to their limits to produce excessive volume levels, they are driven into “clipping” and can do severe damage–especially to tweeters.

What can cause amplifiers and receivers to be pushed to their limits?

Often, the damage is done by underpowered amplifiers, which may reach their limits very soon.

What can happen when amplifiers and receivers begin to “clip” the audio waveform?

When such units begin to “clip” the audio waveform, they may generate high-frequency “spikes” of tremendous power. More tweeters have probably been destroyed by this phenomenon than any other.

What should you listen for if using your speakers at loud levels?

If using your speakers at loud levels, listen carefully for any sign of harsh, garbled midrange and diminishing intelligibility–and turn the volume down right away if you detect it.

Why should you never turn up the volume all the way?

To see how loud your system will play.

What is the recommended amplifier and receiver power range for compact systems?

We recommend amplifiers and receivers rated from a range of 20-150 watts with our compact systems.

What is the recommended amplifier and receiver power range for tower models?

20-200 watts with our tower models.

What is the recommended minimum power for playing at consistently room-filling volume?

For playing at consistently room-filling volume, a minimum of 50 watts is usually a good idea.

What should you be wary of when using low-powered amplifiers?

As just indicated in the paragraph above, be wary of driving low-powered amplifiers to their limits.

What is the recommended maximum power for sustained program material?

We recommend a maximum of 80-150 watts for sustained program material–as, for instance, with organ pedal tones of long duration, or minutes-long subterranean special effects in movies.

What should you be aware of when considering amplifier power?

Be aware amplifiers with equal power rating may not play equally loud. Those with higher dynamic power ratings better satisfy the power requirements. Some have protective circuitry that curtails power available in demanding situations.

How should speaker cabinets be treated?

Cabinets have varying materials and finishes, including wood veneers, vinyl, anodized aluminum, and high-gloss “poly lacquers” and should be treated as you would furniture with similar finishes. Dust lightly with a soft cloth; avoiding abrasives.

How can heavy soil be removed from speaker cabinets?

If necessary, wipe carefully with a cloth slightly dampened with glass cleaner to remove heavy soil.

How should speaker grilles be cleaned?

A lint brush does a good job of cleaning grilles.

How can removable grilles be cleaned?

Removable grilles can be taken off and vacuumed if you prefer.

What should be used to clean ports if needed?

If need be, you can use a lint brush to clean ports.

What should be avoided when cleaning speakers?

Avoid touching speaker diaphragms. Particularly, pushing in the domes will permanently damage tweeters.

What should be done if a speaker begins to sound distorted or seems to be missing certain frequencies?

Lower the power to check first to see whether playing at somewhat lower volume seems to clear up the problem.

What is important to do if you have pushed a low-powered amplifier or receiver past its comfortable limits?

As we noted under “Recommended Power,” it can be especially important to turn down the volume right away if you have pushed a low-powered amplifier or receiver past its comfortable limits.

How can you isolate the problem to the electronics or the speakers and, if the speakers, to specific speakers?

Interchange the speaker wire connections on your amplifier or receiver between channels, so that the left speaker is connected to the right channel, or vice versa. If the problem shifts to the other speaker, the problem is not in the speaker but in the electronics.

What else might be the problem besides the speaker or electronics?

Another component–or, very often, a cable or connection problem between components–may be at fault.

What is likely the problem if the problem stays in the same speaker?

If the problem stays in the same speaker, irrespective of the channel to which it’s connected–and after changing the connecting wire–chances are the speaker itself probably needs service.

What should be done if you require speaker service?

See your dealer if you require service. PSB dealers are equipped to handle almost all problems. If you have moved since your purchase, the nearest authorized PSB dealer should be able to help you.

What should you do if the problem with your speaker is not resolved?

If the problem is not resolved, please contact us, providing the Model name, Serial Number, date of purchase, dealer name, and a full description of the problem.

What should be done with the product at the end of its useful life?
