The S-150 and S-250 speakers are magnetically shielded. This means that they can be placed close to a television monitor without distorting the picture. If you place the speaker directly on top of a large screen direct-view monitor , there is some slight possibility of picture distortion.
A. HEIGHT (OR ANGLE) The S-250, and S-150 have a controlled vertical radiation pattern that makes the speaker ’ s location critical. It is very important to aim the tweeters at the main listening position in order to achieve their very best sound quality and their flat- test frequency response.

8. SA TELLITE/SUBWOOFER PHASING TEST In any system using a subwoofer separate from Satellite speakers, a phasing test must be performed to insure good bass blending. This test insures optimum sound in the critical bass frequencies where your Subwoofer and Satellite speakers overlap.
When tone controls or equalizers are used to boost frequencies, the problem occurs much more rapidly . Even a small boost of low or high frequencies can easily double the power requirement and lead to amplifier clipping at moder- ate levels.
12. CABINET MAINTENANCE The S-150's and S-250’s painted black finish does not require any special maintenance; regular dusting with a lint- free cloth and periodic cleaning is all that is required. Matching black paint can be used if necessary to repair any sur- face damage.
