SPECIAL SPEAKER INSTRUCTIONS

RUBBER FEET and NON-SLIP PADS:
Please attach the rubber feet (included) to the bottom of your subwoofer cabinet's comers approximately 1" in from the edges.Place the small

non-slip pads on the center channel speaker, to the surface that the speaker will be resting on, to minimize movement.

CABINET FINISH:

Yourspeakercabinets require no maintenanceundernormaluse. The cabinetsurfacemay,however, be cleanedby usinga dampcloth. If
youchooseto useanykind of cleaningagent(suchas a non-abrasiveglasscleaner)pleasebe sureto testa smallarea onthe bottomofthe

cabinetfirst.

RECOMMENDED SUBWOOFER PLACEMENT:

Against the wall between your left and rightfront speakers (strong bass output and optimum blending with front speakers); or Within a few

inches of the room comer closest to your left or rightfront speaker (maximum bass output); or near any other room corner or wall. Other loca-

tions will provide less predictable degrees of bass impact and/or blending with yourfront speakers.

RECOMMENDED CENTER AND MAIN SPEAKER PLACEMENT:

We recommend you place your center speaker horizontally on top of (or just below) your TV. For the best effect, we recommend you place

your main speakers approximately 3-4 feet to the left and right of your TV.

RECOMMENDED SURROUND SPEAKER PLACEMENT:

Behind you, equally spaced to your left and right either: facing towards the front of the room (more widely dispersed sound); or facing in

- towards the listening area (more directional sound); Other locations will provide varying degrees of directional and dispersed (ideal) sound
characteristics.

WALL MOUNTING OF SPEAKERS:
Make sure the wall is sturdyenough to support the speaker(s) before driving the screws

into the wall. For safety, use 4 pounds for reference. If the wall is not sturdy enough,

reinforce it. Use roundhead wood screws (not included) that are long and large enough

to stick out 1/8". (See figure 2) Place the speaker against the wall so that the round-
head screw enters the key hole bracket at the back of the speaker.
