Thank you for buying this Pioneer product. Please read through these operating instructions so you will know how to operate your model properly. After you have finished reading the instructions, put them away in a safe place for future reference.

Before you start

• The nominal impedance of this speaker system is 6 ohms. Connect the speaker system to an amplifier with a load impedance ranging from 4 to 16 ohms (a model with “4 – 16 Ω” displayed on the speaker output terminals).

In order to prevent damage to the speaker system resulting from input overload, please observe the following precautions:

• Do not supply power to the speaker system in excess of the maximum permissible input.

• When connecting or disconnecting anything in your AV system, make sure the amplifier is switched off.

• When using a graphic equalizer to emphasize loud sounds in the high-frequency range, do not use excessive amplifier volume.

• Do not try to force a low-powered amplifier to produce loud volumes of sound (the amplifier’s harmonic distortion will be increased, and you may damage the speaker).

Caution: installation

• Do not place the speakers on an unstable surface. It could present a hazard if it falls, as well as damaging the equipment.

• Switch off and unplug your AV equipment and consult the instructions when connecting up components. Make sure you use the correct connecting cables.

• The speaker system grill cannot be removed. Do not try to forcibly remove it since doing so may damage the grille.

Caution: in use

• Don’t use the speakers to output distorted sound for long periods of times. This can result in a fire hazard.

• Do not sit or stand on the speakers or let children play on the speakers.

• Do not put large or heavy objects on top of the speakers.

Regarding Installation

The playback sound from the speaker system may change sensitively as a result of influences from the conditions of the listening room. When installing the speakers, consider the location carefully in order to get optimum results from your installation.

Pioneer disclaims all responsibility for any losses or damage resulting from improper assembly, installation, insufficient strength of the installation materials, misuse, or natural disasters.

• This speaker system weighs about 11 kilograms. Floor installations should be on a flat and stable floor surface; the speaker should be installed away from walls, as shown in the accompanying illustration.

The distance between the speaker and the wall behind it can be changed to adjust the bass emphasis. Adjust the distance so that no audible difference in tone is heard from left and right speakers.

• For a suspended installation, fasten a cord or chain to the metal fixture on the rear panel and attach securely to a pillar or wall. Be sure the pillar or wall used has sufficient strength to support the speaker’s weight. After installing the speaker, confirm that it is supported securely and will not fall.

• If the speaker falls it may be damaged.

• Do not hang the speaker directly from the metal fixture on

the rear panel. To prevent the speaker from falling, always attach a cord or chain to the metal fixture when suspending the speaker from a wall or pillar.

Mounting fixture

Always attach a cord or chain to the mounting fixture when using the speaker in a suspended installation.

Cable or chain

• The most natural listening experience will be produced when the listening position is midway between and an equal distance from the two speakers, as shown. Adjust the speaker wire to the same length from both speakers.

■ Adjusting the Bass Range

This speaker system is supplied with acoustic control material which can be affixed to the bottom of the stand as a means of adjusting the bass frequency range. Apply the material as shown, in accordance with your installation location and personal listening tastes.

Acoustic control material Press the material to the bottom surface of the speaker system. Take care not to allow the material to become pinched between the base feet and floor.

• When using the speakers in a room with permeable walls, place the speakers as closely as possible along the walls, or install them in front of a screen or other object with reflective properties.

• When used with a television, the speakers should be installed so that their front surfaces are in the same plane as the screen of the television.

• When using the speakers with a television screen, the optimum breadth of sound will be produced when the television screen is placed midway between the right and left speakers, and the speakers are oriented at angles of about 50–60° from the listening position.

• In rooms with hard reflective or resonating walls, it may be desirable to cover the walls with a curtain, and/or place a carpet on the floor to dampen excessive sound reflection. Extending the curtain all the way to the corners will help prevent local deadening of the sound. On the other hand, if the wall opposite the speakers (behind the listening position) is also composed of a hard surface, placing a thick curtain over the wall will help prevent the production of standing waves, and result in better sound.

Installation Precautions

• These speaker systems are heavy; installing them in unstable locations is extremely dangerous and should be avoided.

Connection to Amplifier

Terminals are provided on the rear panel of the speakers for connection to an amplifier.

1Disconnect the power cord to the amplifier. 2Use the provided accessory speaker wires to connect the

input terminals on the rear panel of the speakers to the amplifier's speaker output terminals.

Connect the ª terminal to the wire with the white line; connect the · terminal to the solid-color wire.

1. Remove insulation at end of wire and twist ends of wire strands.

2. Loosen the terminal screw and insert the twisted wire into the hole, then tighten the terminal screw securely.

Connect wire with white line to amplifier’s ª speaker output terminal.

Connect solid-color wire to amplifier’s · speaker output terminal.

■ The input terminals on this speaker system can also be connected using a banana plug.

• After connecting the wires to terminals, pull gently on the wire and confirm that the wire lead is fastened securely to its terminal. Insecure connections will result in broken sound and noise.

• Do not allow bare wire ends to protrude excessively from the terminals. If the bare wires from the two leads touch each other, excessive load will be placed on the amplifier, leading to possible damage or malfunction.

• Be sure to connect the + and – leads to their correct terminals. If the poles at one end of the wires are connected mistakenly (+ to –, – to +), proper stereo effect will not be produced.

Remark

• This speaker system is magnetically shielded. However, depending on the installation location, color distortion may occur if the speaker system is installed extremely close to the screen off a television set. If this happens, turn off the television, then turn it on again after 15 to 30 minutes. If the problem persists, place the speaker system away from the television set.

Quick Tip

A speaker system's sound characteristics will change depending on the environment and conditions under which the system is. A speaker system can be used without problem immediately after purchase, but its design performance characteristics will be best demonstrated after breaking them in by playing music for several dozen hours.
