The Mythos One Home Theater Systems
Acomplete Mythos One Home Theater System will normally combine
your Mythos One front left and right loudspeakers with a Mythos Three center
channel loudspeaker and rear surround speakers (which can also be Mythos
One speakers or any other Definitive Surround Loudspeaker including Mythos
Two speakers, our Bipolar In-Walls, ProMonitors, StudioMonitors, etc.) and
one or more Definitive subwoofers. These superb systems offer exceptional
music and home theater performance with all decoding technologies.
Remember, to achieve proper blending and full performance, it is essential
to use only Definitive speakers to complete your home theater system.
Positioning Mythos One as Left/Right Main Speakers
When used as left and right front speakers, the Mythos One can be
placed right next to your TV with excellent results or may be separated
by a distance greater than the width of the TV. As with any speaker, a
greater separation (5 to 7 feet or more) will normally result in a bigger
soundstage and this is recommended from a sonic point of view.
Speakers may be angled in toward the listening position or left parallel
with each other.Angling the speakers in (pointed directly at the listener)
will result in a somewhat brighter, clearer sound with a sharper focus
and a more solid central image (generally, we recommend this), while
leaving the speakers parallel with each other will result in a less bright,
warmer sound.
Positioning Mythos One as Rear/Side Surrounds
When used as rear or side surround speakers, Mythos One may be
located on the side or behind the listeners. When used on the sides, take
care never to locate the speakers forward of the listeners. If the speakers
are placed on the rear wall, it is suggested that they be positioned fairly
wide apart if possible. (For instance, if there is a couch in the center of
the rear wall on which the listeners will sit, try to position the speakers
wider apart than the couch.)
Your Mythos loudspeakers should sound good right out of the box;
however,an extended break-in period of 20-40 hours or more of normal
playing is required to reach full performance capability. Break-in allows
the suspensions to work in and results in fuller bass, a more open
“blossoming” midrange and smoother high frequency reproduction.

Using Your Mythos Loudspeakers with
aSeparate Subwoofer
If you use a subwoofer, we strongly suggest using a Definitive
PowerField SuperCube, PowerField or ProSub in order to achieve
the highest level of sound quality possible.
With Dolby Digital Receivers and Decoders
Most systems using the Mythos loudspeakers with a subwoofer will
be Dolby Digital Systems. Simply hook the Mythos speakers up to the
left and right front (main) channels (assuming you are using them as
front speakers) and hook the Mythos Three to the center channel
(assuming you are using it as a center channel). Using a low-level RCA
cable, hook the subwoofer up to the LFE output on your receiver or
processor (if you are using a Definitive subwoofer input this LFE cable
into the LFE input on the sub). Then set the bass management system on
the receiver or decoder to “Small”left and right main speakers, “Small”
center, and “Yes”subwoofer. If your receiver/decoder has a choice of
crossover frequencies, set the crossover to 80 Hz. The circuitry inside
the receiver or decoder will perform the necessary crossover functions.
With Non-Dolby Digital Systems
With non-Dolby Digital systems, there are many options for using
your Mythos loudspeakers with a subwoofer. The specific hook-up
will depend on the specific subwoofer you are using. With Definitive
subwoofers, you can run the Mythos loudspeakers full range (i.e. hook
