The Entra Series of loudspeakers continues Infinity’s

longstanding commitment to accurate sound reproduction.

Our proprietary Ceramic Metal Matrix Diaphragm™(C.M.M.D.

drivers, precision dividing networks and rigid, well-braced

enclosures combine to deliver uncompromised performance in

any stereo or multichannel home theater system.In addition,

Entra Series speakers, except for the powered subwoofer, are

magnetically shielded for safe placement adjacent to a television.

Unpacking the Speakers

Carefully unpack the speakers.If you suspect damage from

transit, report it immediately to your dealer and/or delivery

service. Keep the shipping carton and packing materials for

Stereo

Before deciding where to place your Entra Point Five speakers,

survey your room and think about placement, keeping the

following points in mind, using Figure 1 as a guide:

• For best results, place the speakers 6'– 8' apart.

• Position each speaker so that the tweeter is approximately at

ear level.

• Generally, bass output will increase as the speaker is moved

closer to a wall or corner.

• Refer to“Home Theater”below if you also plan to use the

speakers in a home theater system.

HomeTheater

For front-channel use, place one speaker on the left and another

on the right along either side of the television monitor. Since the

speakers are magnetically shielded, you can place them without

worrying about the field distorting the TV picture.

Forrear-channel use, place Entra Point Five speakers on

bookshelves or stands alongside the listening position.Final

placement depends on room acoustics, availability of space

and your listening preference (Figure 2).

NOTE: An Infinity powered subwoofer will add impact and

realism to both music and film soundtracks. Contact your Infinity

dealer for recommendations on subwoofer models for your

application.

Entra Point Five speakers are designed to mount directly to

a wall. Each satellite speaker has a keyhole on the back. Each

speaker will require (1) 1-1/2,"#10 wood screw fastened to

a wall stud. If a wall stud is unavailable, install an anchor

appropriate for a 1-1/2,"#10 screw.

NOTE: The customer is responsible for the correct selection

and use of mounting hardware (available through hardware

stores) that will ensure the proper and safe wall-mounting of

the speakers.

Step 1.

Mark the position on the wall where you would like to place the

mounting screw.

Step 2.

Fasten (1) 1-1/2,"#10 wood screws to the wall using the

markings placed in Step 1 as your guide. Leave a 11/16" space

between the wall and screwhead.If a wall stud is not available,

use an appropriate anchor.

Step 3.

Place the speaker on the wall by aligning the keyhole on the

back of the speaker to the screwhead on the wall. Once

positioned properly, the speaker should slide down slightly and

become secure.

The Entra Point Five also allows the use of third-party wall

brackets using the 1/4"-20 threaded insert located beneath the

keyhole mount. Consult the wall-bracket manufacturer for

selection of proper bracket.k

ONNECTIONS

Turn Off All Power

After placing the speakers, you are ready to connect your

system. First, turn off all audio-system power. Use high-quality

speaker wire to make your connections. Use at least #16-gauge

speaker wire with polarity coding.The side of the wire with

a ridge or other coding is usually considered positive polarity

(i.e., +). Also, consult the owner’s manuals that were included

with your amplifier or receiver to confirm connection

procedures.

Observe polarities when making speaker connections, as shown

in Figure 5. Connect each + terminal on the back of the

amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each

speaker. Connect the – (black) terminals in the same way.

Important!

Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to – or – to +) when making

connections. Doing so will cause poor imaging and diminished

bass response. Be certain that positive and negative wire

strands are completely isolated to avoid short circuits that may

damage your equipment.

Figure 5. Wiring diagram shows polarity connections for one channel

of a home theater system.

The satellites feature terminals that can be connected in several

different ways: e.g., banana plugs, spade terminals and direct

wiring (as shown here).

PERATION

Surround Modes

When using the Entra Point Five in a Dolby* Pro Logic* home

theater system, make sure the receiver’s center channel mode

is set to“Normal.” When using the system in a Dolby Digital

or DTS®home theater system, make sure all speakers are set

to“Small”.

Some Dolby Digital-equipped receivers/processors offer different

setup options for each source or surround mode, e.g., CD-stereo,

videotape, Dolby,Pro Logic. In each case, follow your equipment’s

instructions to ensure that the subwoofer (if you have one)

output is turned on and that the speakers are set to“Small”in

each mode.

The enclosures may be cleaned using a soft cloth, dampened

with water only, to remove fingerprints or to wipe off dust.

The grilles may be gently vacuumed. Stains may be removed

with an aerosol cleaner, following its instructions. Do not use

any solvents on the grille.

All wiring connections should be inspected and cleaned or

remade periodically.The frequency of maintenance depends on

the metals involved in the connections, atmospheric conditions,

and other factors, but once per year is the minimum.

If a problem occurs,make sure that all connections are properly

made and clean. If a problem exists in one loudspeaker, reverse

the connection wires to the left and right system. If the problem

remains in the same speaker, then the fault is with the loud-

speaker. If the problem appears in the opposite speaker, the

cause is in another component or cable. In the event that your

Entra Point Five ever needs service, contact your local Infinity

dealer or Infinity directly at 1-800-553-3332 (only

in USA) or

www.infinitysystems.com for a service center near you.
