Frequently Asked Questions - RB 6 C Pure Acoustics

How do I connect the RB 6 C center speaker to my receiver?

Ensure all equipment is off. Connect the positive terminal of the center speaker output on your receiver to the positive terminal on the RB 6 C (red), and the negative terminal to the negative (black). Maintain correct polarity for best sound.

Can I bi-wire the RB 6 C?

Yes. If your amplifier supports bi-wiring, remove the shorting straps on the speaker terminals. Connect the upper terminals (high frequencies) and lower terminals (low frequencies) to the corresponding outputs on your amplifier.

Where should I place the RB 6 C speaker?

The center channel speaker should be placed on top of or just above your TV, centered horizontally for optimal dialogue reproduction.

What is the recommended break-in period?

Allow 15 hours of use at moderate volume for the mechanical parts to settle and achieve intended sound characteristics.

How do I clean the RB 6 C?

Turn off all equipment. Dust the cabinet occasionally with a soft, dry cloth. Do not touch the drive units (woofer and tweeter) to avoid damage.

What is the warranty coverage?

Pure Acoustics offers a limited one-year warranty covering parts and labor for the original owner, provided you have the original dated receipt. It does not cover misuse, neglect, or damage from external causes like fire or water.

Can I use the RB 6 C as a front speaker?

While designed as a center channel, it can be used as a front speaker if needed. However, for best imaging, use matching front speakers from the RB 6 series.

What is the impedance of the RB 6 C?

The impedance is 4 Ohms. Ensure your receiver is compatible with 4-ohm loads to avoid overheating.

How do I know if I am connecting with correct polarity?

Speaker cables typically have a red or marked wire for positive (+) and a black or unmarked wire for negative (-). Match these to the corresponding terminals on both the receiver and speaker.

What finishes are available?

The RB 6 C comes in Cherry, Black, Maple, and Mahogany finishes. The grille is black cloth.

Connections

Make sure all equipment is turned off. When connecting the speakers, be sure to retain the correct polarity. Most speaker cables will have (+) red sign for positive and (-) black sign for negative.

Connect the speaker cable to the positive (+) front-left speaker terminal on the amplifier and to the positive (+) terminal on the front-left speaker. Connect the speaker cable to the negative (-) front-left speaker terminal on the amplifier and to the negative (-) terminal on the front left speaker. Repeat the same step for the right – side front speaker. In the case that your speakers have two sets of terminals on the back, either set of input terminals can be used as long as the shorting straps are in place. If you want to bi-wire your speakers and if your amplifier is equipped with bi-wire output connection, remove the shorting straps and connect each terminal to the associated terminal in your amplifier. The upper input terminals on the back of the speaker are connected to the high frequencies and the lower input terminals are connected to the low frequencies.

Connect the speaker cable to the positive (+) center speaker terminal on the amplifier and to the positive (+) terminal on the center speaker. Connect the speaker cable to the negative (-) center speaker terminal on the amp and to the negative (-) terminal on the center speaker.

Connect the speaker cable to the positive (+) rear left speaker terminal on the amplifier and to the positive (+) terminal on the rear-left speaker. Connect the speaker cable to the negative (-) rear-left speaker terminal on the amplifier and to the negative (-) terminal on the rear-left speaker. Repeat the same step for the right-side rear speaker.

Position

THE FRONT SPEAKERS should be placed on each side of your TV or in front of your favorite listening position. As a general guideline, the space from the speakers to the listening position should be 1.5 times the distance between the speakers. For example, if your listening position is 9ft (2.7m) away from the speakers, the distance between the speakers should be 6ft (1.8m)

THE CENTER CHANNEL SPEAKER should be on top of or just above your TV.

THE REAR (SURROUND) SPEAKERS should be positioned either to the side of, or behind, your listening position. Typical placement is on the side walls, slightly above ear level, about two-thirds of the way back from the front of the room. This allows the surround speakers to aim directly at the listener, placing you in the middle of a five-speaker sound field.

Running time and cleaning

The performance of the speakers may change during the initial use due to storage and mechanical limitations. Please allow 15 hours of use for the temperature effect and mechanical parts to attain their intended design characteristics.

Make sure to turn all equipment off before cleaning. The cabinet only requires occasional dusting. Please avoid touching the drive units.
