All M&K Satellite speakers carry a five year limited parts and labor warranty. This warranty is transferable to new owners up to five years from the date of original purchase. It does not cover abuse, misuse, repairs by unauthorized service stations, speakers without M&K serial numbers, speakers not sold by authorized M&K dealers, and those damaged in shipping or by accident. If you have any questions about the warranty, please contact M&K.

13. CABINET MAINTENANCE

The genuine oak veneer or painted black cabinets of your M&K Satellites have a furniture-grade finish that will maintain its attractive appearance with proper care.

Treat the cabinet as you would any piece of fine furniture. If your cabinet is natural oak, rubbing the wood periodically with an oil or polish will enhance its beauty and protect its finish as long as you own it. If your cabinet is painted black oak or Glass Bead black, regular dusting and cleaning is all that is required. Matching black paint can be used if necessary to repair any surface damage.

14. SELECTING THE RIGHT OMNIMOUNT® BRACKET

The S-100B, S-90, and S-80 Satellites all contain threaded inserts to be used in conjunction with brackets offered by OmniMount® Systems. For the S-90, the location of the Omnimounts varies according to production date. Some S-90s have the inserts on the back baffle of the cabinet and other S-90s have the inserts on the bottom of the cabinet. See page 20 for which bracket to use for each configuration.

The brackets offer tremendous flexibility for installation in a wide variety of environments, and are available in several configurations for standard wall mounting. Always use only the OmniMount® Series listed for each speaker to insure safe installation of the speaker.

The machine screws for mounting the bracket to the S-100B and S-90 speakers can be found in any hardware store, along with screws appropriate for properly wall-mounting the bracket and speaker. Your hardware store can help you make the right selection. For more information, including alternate mounting configurations such as ceiling mounts, contact OmniMount® at (602) 829-8000.

For more detailed information on these OmniMount® brackets, see Figure 7 on Page 20.
