PRO LX10 Dual-Woofer Tower Speaker
Important
: Be sure you remove the
protective packing materials before
using the speaker (see the separate
“Special Precautions” included with
your speaker).
The LX10 produces high sound quality
with very low distortion, and actually
delivers decreasing distortion as the
sound moves to the higher frequency
ranges.
The 7-inch driver is specially designed
to accurately produce all sounds from
45 Hz to 2,200 Hz. The pliable diaphragm in the 2
×
4-inch driver can accurately produce sounds from 2,200
Hz to 25,000 Hz with extraordinarily
low distortion. The tweeter’s unique
design means there is virtually no
physical limitation to its high-frequency sound production.
The speaker cabinet is finished in
black woodgrain vinyl. The black clot h
grilles are acoustically transparent,
and you can remove them for safe and
easy cleaning.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT
For the best stereo image, place a pair
of speakers so t he distance between
them is about the same as the distance between the listening area and
the point halfway between the speakers.

If you must place the speakers f arther
apart, turn them slightly inward. If you
must place them closer to ea ch other,
turn them slightly outward. You might
want to experiment with your speakers’ placement to discover the best location for them.
CONNECTIONS
With a pair of speakers placed in their
approximate locations, measure the
distance from each speaker to your
receiver/amplifier. Use 18-gauge
speaker wire for distances of 50 feet
or less. Use heavier 16-gauge wire for
distances greater than 50 feet.
For maximum bass res ponse and the
best overall performance, connect
your speakers so they are in phase
with the receiv er / a mplifier te rminals (+
to + and – to –). Y ou can eas ily mak e
the proper connections with marked
speaker wire, available at your local
RadioShack store.
1. Separate the wire’s two conductors at both ends for a length of
about 2 inches.
