Congratulations!

You are about to have a unique audio experience: the Mythos Solo XL “All-In-One”
Front Stage Loudspeaker. Never before has style and function combined on this
level to deliver the ultimate sound quality in the coolest looking speaker you could
ever match to your flat screen television. This state-of-the-art loudspeaker features:  

High Definition Drivers and Pure Aluminum Dome Tweeters on
unique  canted baffles in completely separate enclosure segments,
for more realistic imaging and superb front stage performance
from a single, thin wall-mounted speaker. 

The groundbreaking Mythos look: hand-polished, aircraft grade
aluminum enclosure: non-resonant and internally braced for
lifelike sound quality.

Heavy duty, easy to install Wall Mounting Brackets.

Magnetic Shielding for safe placement near video monitors and TVs.

Voice matched with the complete Mythos Series. Use Mythos Solo XL
as the main front stage speaker in a system built with any other Mythos
speakers used as rear surround elements (or use it with any brand of 
loudspeakers for that matter!).

Combine Mythos Loudspeakers with Definitive TechnologySuperCube
Subwoofers to build super high performance Mythos sound systems
for music or movies. 

To ensure that you only experience the finest performance possible from your new speakers,
we encourage you to take a moment (or a few) to read through this manual and familiarize
yourself with the recommended hookup methods for these Mythos Loudspeakers.
