You can experience surround sound
instead of mono/stereo sound; all
dialog and central sounds will be
heard through the center speaker,
while music and off-stage sounds are
heard through the other four satellites.

Using SoftMPEG player or
PlayCenter on PC
1. Select the MOVIE mode by
    pressing the Creative Multi
    Speaker Surround (CMSS)
    button until the LED for MOVIE
    mode lights up.

   This mode lets you experience
   the surround sound with 5.1-
   channel output; all dialog and
   central sounds will be heard
   through the center speaker,
   while music and off-stage
   sounds are heard through the
   other four satellites.

If you are using PlayCenter to play
the VCDs, disable all CMSS effects
in your PlayCenter - use only
DTT2500 Digital CMSS MOVIE
mode.

   There are many mounting
possibilities.  The monitor stand can
be attached with hook and loop
fasteners to the top of the computer
monitor.  It directs the sound down
towards the listener (see Diagram C).

If your computer monitor’s

construction directs the sound of the
center channel satellite towards you
without a stand, attach the satellite
directly to the top of the monitor,
using the hook and loop fasteners (see

Diagram D). Position the face of the
center channel so that it is as far
forward as possible.

Use a Desktop Stand to position a

center channel satellite in front of the
monitor.  It directs the sound up
towards the listener (see Diagram E).

The Center Speaker may also be

hung on the wall behind the monitor
using the screw and wall anchors
provided (see “Mounting The
Speakers”, page 7).

The Rear Satellites. The rear
satellites provide the surround
effects in Dolby Digital, Dolby
Surround and Creative Multi
Speaker Surround modes. They also
provide the discreet rear sounds
produced in four channel gaming.

5 meters (16 feet) of cable is

provided with the two remaining small
satellites for more flexibility in rear
channel placement.

The rear satellites may be placed in

any convenient sites alongside the
listener, including sites slightly
forward of the listening location.

The rear satellites do not have to be

at exactly the same height, nor at the

same height as the front satellites.

If you have side walls close to your

listening position, excellent place-
ment for the rear satellites is slightly
behind your listening position, slightly
above ear level (see Diagram F). The
satellites may be hung on the wall
using the screw and wall anchors
provided (see Mounting The
Speakers page 7).

Do not be concerned if this

placement is not practical. Any rear
satellite placement to the left and right
side of the listening position will
provide strong directional and
surround effects.
