Before using this unit

Connection

The speaker cabinet is made of wood and is therefore sensitive to extreme temperatures and humidity. Avoid placing the speaker systems in locations subjected to direct sunlight, or in smoky or in humid places, such as near an air conditioner, humidifier, bathroom, or kitchen. Doing so may result in damage to the speaker.

Place the unit on a rigid, level surface. Placing it on a slanted surface or weak base not only may cause the unit to fall, but also results in decreased sound quality.

Keep water or other liquids away from the unit. If water is spilled into the unit, not only the unit but also the speakers themselves may be damaged.

Turn the sound volume to the minimum and disconnect the power cord to the amplifier before connecting the speaker cables.

The nominal impedance of this speaker system is 5 Ω. Use only amplifiers capable of handling this impedance.

Use the speaker cables to connect between speaker’s terminals and the amplifier’s speaker terminals as illus- trated below.

Connect the terminals of the Right and Left speakers (when viewed from the front side) with the amplifier’s right

(R) and left (L) speaker terminals, respectively.

Connect the speaker cables securely to the terminals, with the core wires twisted properly.

Press the lever, securely insert the cable’s core wires, and then release the lever.

Pull lightly on the speaker cables to ensure that they are connected securely.

Positive (+) side is indicated with a description or a white line.

Before turning on the amplifier’s power switch:

Make sure that the positive (+) and negative (–) speaker cables do not contact each other. Otherwise, a short- circuit may occur, causing damage to the amplifier.

Be sure to connect the speaker cables with correct polarity (connect the speaker’s positive (+) and negative (–) termi- nals with the amplifier’s corresponding speaker termi- nals). Reversed polarity results in impaired bass-range reproduction, causing mislocalization of the sound image. Also, be sure to connect the Right and Left speakers with the amplifier’s corresponding speaker terminals.

Pull lightly on the speaker cables to ensure that they are connected firmly.
