After you uncoil the speaker cable, connect one speaker to the
1.
(Red) connector on the back of your Klipsch system. This speaker will
be to your left when you are behind the system connecting, but it will
be on the right when you are facing the system. You can connect either
speaker to the

standard RCA cable, simply connect one end of the cable to the black
“LFE” OUTPUT on the rear of the A /V Center and the other end to the
“LFE” INPUT on the rear of the subwoofer. Cable not included.)
Plug the power cord into the subwoofer and an AC outlet and turn the

Speaker Setup Considerations
Front speakers typically sound best
•
;,3,=0:065
when their tweeters are at approximately ear height for seated listeners.
If this isn’t possible, it is sometimes
beneficial to tilt the speaker down or
up slightly so that it is aimed into the
listening area.
If possible, position the speakers the same distance apart as they are
•
from the listening position.
Speakers should be pointed straight forward. Do not place the
•
speakers at an angle.
If you are putting speakers in a cabinet, on a rack or a table, try to
•
bring them out far enough so that they are at least flush with the
cabinet’s front edge.
When practical, arrange each speaker so that it is at somewhat
•
different distances from the floor, the wall behind it, and the wall
beside it. It can also help to have the left and right front speakers
at different distances from their nearest side walls. This staggering
helps smooth the bass range. Each speaker can be set on its bottom
or side. If you set them on the side and want to turn the Klipsch logo,
carefully pull the logo forward, turn and release it.
The subwoofer’s output will increase as it is moved closer to walls,
•
with maximum output when it is placed in a corner. If practical,
always place the subwoofer near a wall. Additionally, a subwoofer will
deliver the smoothest bass response when placed near a wall away
from openings, such as doors.
Naturally, there are exceptions to the rules, since no two rooms or
•
systems are exactly alike. Experiment with positioning to get the
best sound.

(4.5+
The back of your Klipsch System has jacks for the AM and FM antennas that
were packed with your system. Unwind the wires for each antenna to provide
the best reception. An outdoor antenna may be used in place of the supplied
indoor antennas. To add an outdoor antenna, consult a qualified installer.
Follow all safety instructions supplied with the antenna.
FM Antenna
Plug the FM antenna into the Klipsch system’s FM (75W) jack in the section
labeled
(5;
On the back of your Klipsch system, spread out the antenna
arms and move them around to establish optimum FM reception. Extend the
antenna as much as possible.
Some cable TV providers make FM radio signals available through the cable
service to your home. This connection is made to the external FM jack on
the back of the Klipsch system. To connect to this service, contact your
cable TV provider for assistance.
Make sure that the cable radio installation includes a TV/FM splitter so that
only the FM radio band, not the cable TV band, is received by the Klipsch
system. If necessary, contact your cable company.
AM Antenna
Plug the AM loop antenna into the
on the back of your Klipsch system. Place the antenna loop at least 20 inches
(50 centimeters) away from your Klipsch system. To get optimum reception,
you may need to experiment with the positioning of the loop antenna.

Turn on the TV and the Klipsch System
Plug in the Klipsch system’s power cord to an AC power outlet.
Turn on the Klipsch system (press the
panel or on the remote control). You can also press

Turn on the TV and tune to the correct video input channel. This
is the channel that corresponds to the input jack you used on
the back of the TV to connect the Klipsch system. The name and
how you access this video input channel varies for different TVs.
Generally, you will press a button on the TV’s remote control, such
as :6<9*, or 057<; or =0+. See below if you can’t find the

If you do not see a picture on your TV, check your T V's owner manual to see
how you tune the TV to the correct channel. It won't be "Channel 3" but it's
the same idea. You'll need to tune the TV to the "channel" that matches the
input jacks on the TV you used to connect to the Klipsch system's output jacks
(either COMPONENT, S-VIDEO, or COMPOSITE—which is regular VIDEO and

technology to transmit the subwoofer signal from the A/ V center to
the subwoofer. The system is also capable if using KlipschCast to
transmit any of its sources, on-board or auxiliary, throughout your
home in CD quality. This signal can then be received and played
by other Klipsch audio products using KlipschCast technology.
Selecting Subwoofer Only turns off the wireless broadcast to all
KlipschCast components except the CS-700 subwoofer. For example, this might
be done when viewing/listening to content on the CS-700 that you do not wish to
broadcast to other KlipschCast components.
Selecting All Off will disable all wireless transmission including the subwoofer
signal. This is primarily used for diagnostics.
7.
HOME CODE: The Home Code feature allows you to select a unique
channel for all your KlipschCast components to keep your content private and
unavailable to other nearby systems. The Home Code default is 0 for all
KlipschCast components and does not need to be changed unless other nearby
KlipschCast systems interfere. All KlipschCast components (including your
subwoofer) in your multi-room system must be on the same home code to
interact with one another. To check or change the home code on the CS-700,
select Home Code in the Setup Menu. From here you can see the
selected Home Code and change it if necessary.
To check or change the Home Code on your subwoofer, find the Home
Code dial on the rear of the subwoofer. The dial can be rotated with a small
flat blade screwdriver to select the desired number. If you change the Home
Code you must turn the subwoofer off and on again to reset the Home
Code. The cinema system and subwoofer must be on the same Home
Code to communicate wirelessly.

The display on the front of your Klipsch system provides playback

title, and/or chapter number of the disc. Additionally, information from the
radio’s RDS (Radio Data System), such as artist and track information, is
displayed when you’ve tuned to the radio function. Below are explanations of
display messages you may encounter that may not be covered in other parts
of this manual.
Dolby® Digital
The trademarked marketing name for Dolby Laboratories’ AC-3 codec. The
common version contains six total channels of sound, with five channels
for normal-range speakers (Right Front, Center, Left Front, Right Rear and
Left Rear) and one channel for the subwoofer. The Dolby Digital format also
supports Mono and Stereo. Your Klipsch system supports Dolby Digital with
its 2.1 audio system design.
DTS (Digital Theatre Systems)
A multi-channel surround sound format (rival of Dolby Digital). With DTS, the
encoders and decoders support numerous channel combinations and stereo.
DTS contains four-channel+LFE (Low Frequency Effects) audio tracks. Digital
Theatre Systems was the name of the company that developed this format
(currently referred to as DTS). Film director Steven Spielberg was one of the
company’s initial investors. Spielberg films use the DTS audio format.

Progressive Scan TVs
On the back of your Klipsch CS-700 system, there is a progressive scan switch labeled
P.SCAN
. Progressive scan is a result of the digital TV transition—it is a process digital TVs
can use to read and display broadcast signals. Progressive scan TVs display each pixel (picture
element) of the signal consecutively line by line. All progressive scan TVs are digital, but not all
digital TVs are progressive scan.
Some digital TVs only support the classic interlace display method that TVs have used since
their inception. With interlace scanning, a TV draws every other line of the broadcast signal—
first, the even numbered lines and then the odd numbered lines. This process happens so
quickly it tricks your eye so it appears as though you're seeing the entire picture.
If your digital TV is progressive scan, turn the

CHAPTER 2: REMOTE CONTROL
The universal remote control that came packed with your Klipsch system can be programmed to operate the basic functions of many other brands of audio
and video components, such as TVs, satellite receivers, cable boxes, DVD players, and others. The design of the remote control groups the buttons to help
you achieve better performance from your remote. In this section of the manual, you will learn the function of each button and how to program it to operate
other brands of components. To use the remote control effectively, always aim it directly at the Klipsch controller.
