Setting up your Kenwood KVS Speakers
Introduction
Your Kenwood KVS speakers were designed to meet the demands of today’s high-quality music recordings and film soundtracks.
Your new speakers:
•Deliver wide dynamic range and powerful bass response
•Feature quality-built acousticallyoptimized enclosures
•Are magnetically-shielded for use in audio/video systems
•Were designed, engineered, and assembled in the USA.
Installing the speakers isn’t difficult, but please read and follow all of the instructions in this manual to get maximum performance from your new speakers. If you’re also connecting other equipment, such as a receiver, power amplifier, or pre-amplifier, use this manual in combination with the materials that came with those components.
Unpacking
Unpack your new speakers carefully and examine them for shipping damage. If they are damaged or fail to operate, notify your dealer immediately. If your speakers were shipped to you directly, notify the shipping company without delay. Only the person or company who originally received the unit can file a claim against the carrier for shipping damage. Keep the original carton and packing materials in case you need to transport or ship your speakers.
About speaker wire
We ask you to buy the wire separately, since we don’t know how much wire you will need. We suggest that you buy wire that is at least 18-gauge or thicker. Remember, the smaller the number, the thicker the wire, so 18-gauge wire is thicker than 20-gauge wire.
Before you run out to buy speaker wire, read the section on ‘Placing the speakers’ on page 3. You’ll need to know where your speakers will go before you buy the speaker wire.
For your records
Record the serial number (found on the back of the unit) on the warranty card, and in the space below. If you need to call your dealer for information or service, you’ll need the model and serial numbers. And be sure to save your original receipt.

Safety Precautions
For all units
1Dispose of the packaging materials properly. After you take the unit out of its shipping bag, dispose of the bag, keeping it out of the reach of children and animals. Be aware that the bag could cause suffocation.
2Protect your unit from moisture. Don’t place your unit near water—for example, a bathtub, kitchen sink, laundry tub, wet basement or near a swimming pool.
3Keep your unit out of extreme hot and cold. Your unit may not work properly if it is used at extremely low or freezing temperatures. Don’t place your unit near radiators, heat registers, stoves or other heat sources.
4Don’t put objects or liquids into the unit! NEVER permit children to put anything into the unit.
5NEVER try to open the unit or take it apart.

•Objects have fallen, or liquids have been spilled into the unit.
•The unit has been exposed to moisture.

8To prevent distortion (and in some cases, discoloration of TV pictures), keep the unit away from sources of magnetic fields, such at TVs, radios, motorized toys, or magnetized objects. If the unit is magnetically-shielded (the manual will state this), it is not subject to these problems.
