Operating the Companion
®
3 multimedia speaker system
Turning your speaker system on and off
1. Turn on your computer or sound source.
2. Turn the power switch on the back of the Acoustimass
®
module to ON (I).
Note:
To conserve energy, your system can be put into standby mode. The mute or standby
mode is activated by touching the center portion of the control pod and indicated by the yellow
light.
Adjusting the sound
The acoustics of your listening room affect the sound quality of any speaker system.
Upholstered furniture, wall-to-wall carpets, or heavy drapes can muffle the treble (high
frequencies). Bare floors and walls and unupholstered furniture reflect the treble and may
cause it to sound too shrill.
Bass
After listening to your speaker system, you may wish to adjust the sound. Use the bass
compensation control on the Acoustimass module. Turn the control clockwise to increase, or
counterclockwise to decrease bass. You may also adjust the placement of the module to
affect bass; simply aim the port of the module away from the wall to decrease bass, or toward
the wall to increase bass.
Volume
Use the volume control on the control pod. Rotate the outer ring clockwise to increase, or
counterclockwise to decrease the volume (Figure 7).
To mute the system, gently tap the silver touch-sensitive panel on the control pod. Tap again
to unmute. The indicator light turns yellow when the system is muted, and green when it is
active.

Control pod features
Note:
Using the volume controls in their maximum position may reduce the speaker system’s
maximum volume, by causing the internal protection circuity to engage.
If you wish to control volume at the sound source instead of from the control pod, set the
volume control on the control pod near maximum volume; then make all other adjustments
using the volume control on your sound source. For instance, you may be able to control the
volume on your computer from its control panel.
