Kenwood Acoustics
Introduction
Congratulations! The KSS-500
Home Theater Speaker Package will
bring quality sound reproduction to
your home theater system. Installing
the speakers isn’t difficult, but please
read and follow all of the instruc-
tions on these pages (and in the
manual that comes with the
subwoofer) to get maximum perfor-
mance from your new speakers.
If you’re also connecting other
equipment, such as a receiver,
power amplifier, or pre-amplifier,
use this manual in combination with
the manuals that came with those
components.
Unpacking
In this box you should have:
• CFS-200 Front Speakers
(1 Left and 1 Right)
• CFS-200 Center Speaker (1)
• RS-05 Surround Speakers (2)
• 8-ft lengths of speaker wire (5)
Your SW-200 Powered Subwoofer
comes in a separate box.
About the speaker wire: If you you
need longer speaker wire, we
suggest you buy wire that is 18-
gauge or thicker. Remember, the
smaller the number, the thicker the
wire—so 18-gauge is thicker than
20-gauge.
Unpack the speakers carefully, and
examine them for shipping damage.
If they are damaged or fail to oper-
ate, notify your Kenwood dealer
immediately. If they were shipped to
you directly, notify the shipping
company without delay. Only the
person or company who originally
received the speakers can file a
claim against the carrier for shipping
damage. Keep the original cartons
and packing materials in case you
need to transport or ship your
speakers in the future.
