SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Prior to the installation of your speakers, read the following safety guidelines to help prevent
damage to any electrical components or harm to users.
• Do not place this product or any of its parts near heat or potential heat sources, nor in any
moist or damp environment.
• Do not hit, drop or mishandle electrical components in such a way as to loosen, break or
otherwise render inoperative any interior or exterior parts.
• Do not remove the back panel except as directed by a qualified technician in order to
minimize the possibility of electrical shock. If in need of repair or inspection, bring the
speaker(s) to a professional repair person.
• Should liquids or other materials (including fragments of broken parts) get inside the speaker
cabinet, immediately shut power off to the speaker and have it professionally inspected
and/or repaired before further operation.
• Turn off the power and unplug from power source when the system is not in use.

SETUP
1. Carefully unpack the speakers and cables. Do not lift or remove the speakers from the box
by the function knobs or other attachments as this may damage the speaker unit.
2. Place the satellite speakers and subwoofer in the desired listening location.
3. Attach the satellite speakers to the
subwoofer unit using the included RCA-to stereo cables as shown at right. Match
each color-coded cable connector to the
proper color-coded speaker and subwoofer
input jacks. If speaker wire is included
instead of RCA-to-stereo cables, attach
one of the bare wire ends to the positive
terminal of the speaker; attach the other
end of the same wire to the positive terminal
of the subwoofer. Repeat the steps with the
remaining wires to connect the negative
terminals (gently twist each bare end to
prevent stray strands from touching the
other terminal).

4. Connect the RCA-to-stereo cables as shown to the
computer sound card or other audio source.
5. If connecting to a computer, conduct a sound card
test. With the speakers properly connected and
turned on, find the computer’s sound card in the
device manager and begin the test. Each channel
should be able to be tested for sound and link.
6. With the “test” window still open, turn up the volume
on each channel (speaker). Test sound should be
heard.
