UNPACKING
All Models
Open one end of the carton, attach outrigger feet as shown in Figure 2, invert •
the speaker and pull the carton off of the loudspeaker. (See Figure 1.)
Remove all inner packing, including plastic bags, and re-install the grille on •
the front of the cabinet.
Inspect the loudspeaker for shipping damage. If damage has occurred, notify your
Klipsch dealer or the responsible transit company. Retain all packaging for future use.
Floorstanding Models
Floorstanding models are supplied with foot spikes to enhance performance on
carpeted floors.
Invert the speaker on a carpeted surface and screw the spikes into the •
threaded bushings in the bottom of the feet. Use caution when turning the
speaker upright as the spikes are sharp! (See Figure 2.)
Use an assistant to lift the speaker into position. •
Adjust individual spike length to level the speaker after positioning.•
Bookshelf, Center and Surround Models
These models are supplied with self-stick rubber feet to prevent surface damage.
(See Figure 2 for proper application.)
ROOM PLACEMENT
Your Reference loudspeakers will perform well in a variety of locations, but best
results will be achieved using the following guidelines:
Front Left and Right Speakers (See Figures 3 and 4.)
Place on a common wall 6 to 15 feet apart. •
If used in a home theater system, position the speakers •
flanking your video display.
Position them equidistant from the back wall.•
Position them at the same height above the floor (for non-floor standing •
models) with the high frequency drivers at seated ear height.
Angle speakers toward the listener and even with or forward of any adjacent •
obstructions.
Placing them near a corner or wall provides the greatest •
amount of bass while moving the speakers away from room boundaries
reduces bass energy.
Asymmetrical placement of a pair of speakers from adjacent side walls can •
smooth room-induced bass unevenness.
Bookshelf models may be placed on shelves or optional floor stands.•
Experiment with the above guidelines to suit your taste and to compensate for •
your room’s acoustic characteristics.
Center Channel Speakers (See Figures 3 and 4.)
Place immediately above or below center of your video display.•
These models are supplied with a tilt rod to compensate for placements •
above or below seated ear height.
Use the supplied self-stick rubber pads to cover the threaded bushing holes •
(2) if the tilt rod is not used. (See Figure 6.)
Surround Channel Speakers (See Figures 3 and 4.)
Place approximately 2 feet above the listening position (Typically this will be •
about 5-7 feet above the floor.)
The surrounds should be placed on the walls directly adjacent to the listening •
position. Another option would be on the wall behind the listening position.
The final surround speaker placement depends on your room’s characteristics.•
Use the attached wall bracket to hook to an appropriately sized screw head •
screwed into a wall stud or wall anchor with a suitable weight bearing
capacity. (See Figure 4.)
See your Klipsch dealer for optional, adjustable wall mounts if required. These •
mounts utilize the threaded bushings on the rear of the cabinet.
CAUTION! Never use the attached wall bracket for mounting the
speaker to the ceiling!
CONNECTING
CAUTION! Turn your amplifier off before making any
connections.
Your loudspeakers are equipped with positive (Red) and negative (Black) connection
terminals on the rear of the cabinet. These correspond to the positive and negative
terminals on the appropriate channel (left, right, center, rear etc.) of your amplifier.
Standard Connections (See Figure 5.)
Some Reference speakers come with dual binding posts that are connected •
by a metal strip. Do not remove this strip or your speakers will not function
correctly. Keep this strip in place and connect your speaker wire to the top
set of the binding posts. It is possible to “Bi-wire” a speaker that has two sets
of binding posts. Please see your receiver’s manual for further instructions.
All speakers in your system must be connected in phase with the positive •
speaker terminal connected to the positive amplifier terminal. Repeat this
for the negative speaker terminal and amplifier terminals. Most speaker
wire has distinguishing markings on the insulation of one of the conductors
to assist in correct hookup.
WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
DO NOT OPEN.
WARNING: Do Not Open! Risk of Electrical Shock. Voltages in this
equipment are hazardous to life. No user-serviceable parts inside.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
