For Your Safety
Signal terms
You can find the following signal terms in this user manual:
WARNING
This signal term indicates a moderate risk, which, if not avoided, may result in death or severe injury.
CAUTION
This signal term indicates a low risk, which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.
NOTICE
This signal term warns you of potential damage.
Safety notes
This chapter contains general safety notes which you should always observe to protect yourself and third parties. Also observe the warning notes in each chapter of this user manual.
An unsuitable setup location may result in injury and damage. If the speakers are not securely mounted, do not
use them in vehicles, in unstable locations, on wobbly tripods or furniture, on underdimensioned brackets etc. The speakers may tip or fall over and cause injury to persons or be damaged themselves. Place the speakers in such a way that they cannot be knocked over inadvertently and make sure that the cables do not pose a tripping hazard. Carefully follow the user manual, including those provided separately for the subwoofer. Make sure that the wall mounting is done in a professional manner. In case of a wall mounting, verify the carrying capacity of the walls and make sure that there are no cables or pipes in the drilling areas. Before you drill, use a metal detector to check the applicable areas. Otherwise, there is a risk of electric shock/ short circuit! Do not place the speakers near heat sources (e.g. heaters, ovens, other heat generating equipment such as amplifiers etc.).
An unstable base may cause the unit to tip and injure or even kill persons, children are particularly at risk. You can prevent a large number of accidents by taking the following precautions: Only place the subwoofers on the floor. If you want to use underframes or speaker stands,
only use those recommended by the manufacturer. When storing the product, also ensure that it stands safely and that it cannot be knocked down or over. Children can become trapped in the plastic wrapping when playing and suffocate. Do not allow children to play with the device or the plastic wrapping. There is a danger of suffocation. Ensure that children do not remove small parts from the device or take them off of the device (e.g. control knobs or plug adapters). They could swallow the parts and choke. Never allow children to operate electrical equipment unsupervised.
CAUTION
Extended listening at high volumes may lead to hearing loss.
To avoid damage to health, avoid extended listening at high volumes.
When the volume is set high, always keep a certain distance from the device and never place your ear directly on the speaker.
If the AV receiver is set to full volume, it may produce very high sound pressure. This may have psychic consequences and also cause physical injury. Children and pets are particularly at risk. Set your signal source device volume control to a low setting before turning on the power.

If necessary, consult your physician and ask for effects on implants such as pacemakers or defibrillators.
Warning of damage to property
NOTICE
If the device is subjected to warm temperatures after being cold (e.g. after transport), condensation may occur inside of it.
In this case, wait at least 2 hours before you connect and activate it.
Improper use may lead to damage or fire.
Do not place open flames such as burning candles or similar on the device.
Ensure sufficient ventilation.
Do not place the device in direct sunlight.

Assembly
NOTICE A separate user manual is included with the subwoofers. Before connecting and operating the
subwoofers, please be absolutely sure to read the user manual.
Mounting material especially attuned to these speakers (cables, speaker stands and isolation pads) is available via our web shop (www.teufelaudio.com) in the "Extras" area.
Isolation pads
The self-adhesive rubber feet are used to set up the front speakers on a level surface.
NOTICE The isolation pads can produce discolouration on sensitive surfaces. On parquet, varnished wood and similar
surfaces, you should stick felt gliders to the rubber feet of the speakers or put blankets or small carpets under them. This will prevent discolouration of the floor over the long term.
Protective cover
You can take the protective covers off of the speakers by carefully reaching behind the protective covers and slowly pulling them off to the front.
In general, you can operate the speakers without a protective cover however, we don't recommend it. According to the THX® requirements profile, the speakers were designed to reach a linear frequency response and consequently their optimal playback quality when used WITH the covers. Playback WITHOUT a cover can result in unbalanced frequency response with intensified playback of treble, which is why we advise not to operate the speakers in this way.
Optional metal grid
Protective metal grids are also included in the package contents, which you can install instead of the protective cloth covers.
· You will need a AF5 hexagon key for the assembly:
1. Take the protective cover off (see above).
2. Unscrew the four hexagon socket screws that are now visible.
3. Insert one of the enclosed distance bushings in each of the four holes.
4. Place the protective metal grid on the speaker.
5. Use the enclosed hexagon socket screws to screw the protective metal grid onto the speaker.
NOTICE
Risk of damage!
Make sure that you do not touch the highly sensitive diaphragms.
When putting the protective cover on, please make sure that the installation pins slide directly into the corresponding jacks on the speaker.

Setup/Wall Mounting
Setup location
Our website contains comprehensive notes for correct setup.
Location tips · Select a stable, level base. · Make sure that the environment is clean and free
from dust. · Select a location away from heat sources and
direct sunlight. · Lay the connector cords so that they do not pose
a tripping hazard. · Do not place any heavy objects on the cable or the
devices.
Setup
The following data concern an "ideal home cinema", in which the viewer or listener sits in a central position at a sufficient distance in front of the video screen or screen (see the following graphic) and no objects (tables or the like) are located in between. Unfortunately, the room, furnishings or other circumstances do not always allow for optimum arrangement. Modern software in the external players offers diverse possibilities to electronically compensate for possible compromises in the placement. The following general rule applies: You can always experiment on what works best in your listening room in terms of sound and appearance based on our recommendations. Let your ears (and eyes) decide!
Front speaker Two of the front speakers S 600 FCR THX® Select are set up to the right and left of the screen or positioned at a height of approx. 80 to 160 cm. · They should form, as far as possible, an equilat-
eral triangle with the listener what is known as the stereo triangle (distance to listener = distance between speakers). · Depending on the speaker and set-up height, it may make sense to angle them towards the listening position. You should definitely try this to determine whether it noticeably improves the sound.
Center speaker
Place one of the front speakers S 600 FCR THX® Select in a central position under or above the video screen or screen.
· It should be set up about 20 centimetres behind the left and right speaker.
· If you can only place the center speaker in line with the left and right speaker, you should activate the delay for the center channel ("Center Delay") providing that your AV receiver has this option. Many modern AV receivers and amplifiers do not offer this kind of function, but automatically set this delay to a correct value when you activate the automatic calibration function.
Stereo triangle

· SYSTEM 6 THX® Select
Subwoofer You should place the two active subwoofers S 6000 SW THX® Select on the floor to the right and left of the television and close to it. · A location between the front speakers is often
ideal. · However, do not set the subwoofers up in a corner
of the room as this may result in uncontrollable frequency rises.
Rear speakers The two dipole speakers S 600 D THX® Select project sound forward at a 45° into the unobstructed room and back against the walls to produce the desired THX® compliant spatial diffusion. · Position the dipole speakers inside of the grey
areas (see graphic). · Version A: They are set up or hung at head height
(140 to 210 cm) to the side of the listener. The distance to the rear wall should be no less than 50 cm. · Version B: You can also set up the rear speakers behind the listener at a height of 140 to 210 cm. Determine the best distance to the side wall by experimenting with different audio tests.
Wall mounting
CAUTION
Improper mounting may cause damage.
Make sure that the wall mounting is done in a professional manner.
Before drilling the holes, use a metal detector to ensure that there are no electrical cables or pipes in the wall within the drilling area.
Use only suitable screws and dowels for fixing.
Verify the carrying capacity of the walls.
The brackets on the back are used for the wall mounting of the front and dipole speakers (see graphic).
Wall bracket/speaker stand The keyhole slot(s) and the threaded hole on the bottom of the speakers (see arrows) are also intended for fixing the speakers to a wall bracket or speaker stand. You will find suitable items in our online shop: https://www.teufelaudio.co.uk/what-works-best. html
The dipoles would theoretically also be positioned on speaker stands always close to the wall but we are unable to offer a speaker stand with the recommended height of at least 1.50 metres. A very large base plate would guarantee stability at this height. However, a stand footprint of approx. 1 × 1 metre is definitely not that nice to look at.
· SYSTEM 6 THX® Select 9
Connecting
CAUTION
Risk of injury/damage!
Lay the cables so that they do not pose a tripping hazard.
Before connecting the speakers, switch your AV receiver off and pull the mains plug.
Connecting the subwoofers
For setup and connection, please be absolutely sure to observe the separate user manual for the subwoofers. In order to reach the THX® specifications, you should only use a cable to connect the subwoofers to your AV receiver. For this, use short, properly shielded RCA cables if
possible. If your AV receiver only has one subwoofer output,
use a Y RCA adapter that you connect directly to the AV receiver if possible.
Connecting the speakers
1. Lay the speaker cables from your AV receiver to each speaker. If possible, use high-quality dual core speaker cables with a diameter of at least 2 mm2 to do so.
2. On the back of each speaker is a connection terminal with two pole clamps. You can connect the speaker cable directly here or using pin plugs. Direct connection only is described here. The terminals are marked in red (+) and black (-).
NOTICE
Make sure the polarity is correct!
Connect each of the like coloured terminals of your active and passive speaker with one another; otherwise the sound quality will suffer. To facilitate this, the individual single wires of the speaker cables are marked with different colours or shapes.
3. Split the wire down by approx. 30 mm on both ends and remove approx. 10 mm of insulation each. Twist the single wire so that no strands are protruding.
4. Turn the connector terminal counterclockwise until loose. Run the stripped cable end into the now visible hole. Close the terminal by turning it clockwise. The cable has now been clamped in place.
5. Connect the other end of the speaker cable to the clamps of your AV receiver.
Finish by also connecting the mains cord of your AV receiver again.

Settings
Adjusting the AV receiver and subwoofers
Most AV receivers have a menu with settings for the speakers (called "Speaker Setup" or similar). By following our recommendations below, you can perfectly align the AV receiver and the subwoofers:
AV receiver settings If possible, use your AV receiver's calibration function so that it automatically adjusts the levels, phase and run times to the room. If your receiver doesn't provide an automatic calibration function, the following values are recommended: · Size of the front, center and rear speakers to
"normal" or "small" not "large". · Subwoofer to "On". · Crossover frequency for subwoofers to 80 Hz.
Subwoofer settings · POWER switch (9) to "AUTO". · SUB LEVEL control (3) to "THX®". · BASS BOOST control (4) to "THX®". · PHASE switch (6) to "0°".
1. Perform an audio test now and adjust the "SUB LEVEL" control (3) until the subwoofer can be "easily heard". However, it must not drone.
2. If any deep "hits" are too hard or too soft, adjust the setting of the BASS BOOST control (4).
3. Repeat these steps with different video and audio media.
4. Once you have found the best sound, switch the phase shift on and off several times with the PHASE switch (6). Select the setting with the best sound.
Adjusting the volume
Use the SUB LEVEL control (3) to adjust the volume of the subwoofer. In the "THX®" setting, the subwoofer corresponds to the specifications of THX® Select.
If the LED CLIP (10) lights up, the input signal is too high. In this case, reduce the subwoofer level on your AV receiver.
Configuring the sound pattern
Use the BASS BOOST control (4) to set the low tone sound pattern. In the "THX®" setting, the SYSTEM 6 THX® corresponds to the specifications of THX® Select.

Care And Cleaning
NOTICE
External influences may damage or destroy the device.
If the device is to be left unattended for a prolonged period of time (e.g. during a vacation) or if a thunderstorm is forecast, pull the mains plug out of the socket. Otherwise, sudden overvoltage could cause the device to become defective.
If possible, only use plain water without any additives. In case of stubborn marks, a mild soap solution may be used.
Do not use caustic cleaning products, white spirit, thinners, petrol or similar under any circumstances. Such cleaning agents may damage the delicate surface of the housing.
· Ideally, you should remove dust or small amounts of dirt with a dry, smooth leather cloth.
· Use a damp cloth to rub off stubborn dirt. Make sure that no liquid penetrates the housing.
· Then immediately wipe the damp surfaces off with a soft cloth without applying pressure.
