These models are shipped
with four self-adhesive
nonskid pads that are to be
used when the loudspeaker
is intended to be placed on a
smooth-surfaced floor, such
as tile or hardwood. Gently lay
the speaker on its side (not its
front or back) on a soft,
nonabrasive surface. Attach
each pad to the bottom of its
foot in the widest portion of
the recessed area.
DO NOT attach the pads if
the speaker will be placed
on carpeting.
NEVER drag the speaker to
move it, as this will damage
the pads, the feet and/or the
wood cabinet itself. Always
lift the speaker and carry it
to its new location.
CAUTION: Floorstanding
(tower) loudspeakers have
a high center of gravity and
may become unstable and tip
over during earthquakes or if
rocked, tipped or improperly
positioned. If this is a
concern, these speakers
should be anchored to the
wall behind them, using
the same procedures and
hardware customary for
anchoring bookcases and
wall units. Customer is
responsible for proper
installation and proper
selection of hardware.

The supplied self-adhesive
felt pads may be attached to
the bottom corners of your
speakers to protect your
furniture.

CONNECTION TIPS
Speakers and electronics
terminals have corre-
sponding (+) and (–) terminals.
It is important to connect both
speakers identically: (+) on
the speaker to (+) on the
amplifier and (–) on the
speaker to (–) on the amplifier.
Wiring “out of phase” results
in thin sound, weak bass and
a poor stereo image. With the
advent of multichannel
surround sound systems,
connecting all of the speakers
in your system with the
correct polarity remains
equally important in order to
preserve the proper ambience
and directionality of the
program material.To use the
binding-post speaker
terminals, unscrew the
colored collar until the pass-
through hole in the center
post is visible under the collar.
Insert the bare end of the wire
through this hole; then screw
the collar down until the
connection is tight. The hole
in the center of each collar is
intended for use with banana-
type connectors.
