Connecting, Bass Management, Care and Cleaning

Center Channel Speaker (See Figures 2A and 2B.)

• Place immediately above or below the center of your video display.

Surround Channel Speakers (See Figures 2A, 2B and 3.)

•Place above seated ear height on side or rear walls

(approximately 4-5 feet above the floor).

•Use the attached wall brackets to hook to appropriately sized screw heads screwed into a wall stud and wall anchor or two wall anchors with a suitable weight bearing capacity. (See Figure 3.)

On Wall Placement

•Icon bookshelf models may be wall-mounted using the

1/4-20 threaded insert on the rear of the speaker. Be sure the mounting hardware you are using has the necessary load bearing capabilities before hanging any speaker. If you use a bracket, see the bracket owner’s manual for mounting details.

Never use the wall bracket for mounting the speaker to the ceiling.

Connecting

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 4.)(All Models)

•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.

•Use 16 gauge (AWG), two conductor, copper wire at a minimum and larger gauge wire for longer runs. The connection terminals on your loudspeaker will accommodate bare wire, spade terminals, and banana plugs.

With all connection types, take care that there is no contact between the positive and negative terminals

at the speaker and amplifier. Damage to your equipment may result.

WF-35 and WF-34 Standard Connections

•Use either pair of positive and negative terminals keeping the metal coupling straps in place.

Bi-Wire Connections (See Figure 5.)

•The WF-35 and WF-34 are equipped with two pair of connection terminals for bi-wire hookup and enhanced performance.

•Remove the metal coupling straps.

•Connect one speaker wire (+ and -)to the top pair of binding posts and a second speaker wire (+ and -) to the bottom pair of binding posts.

Bass Management

When using your speakers in a home theater system, consult the owner’s manual of your surround electronics for proper application of bass management settings.

•As a general rule, compact speakers (Bookshelf, Center

Channel and Surrounds) are set to the “Small,” or bass- limited setting.

•Floorstanding speakers are typically set to the “Large,” or full-range setting.

•Also refer to the electronics instructions for adjusting the relative volume levels of the speakers so they are at the same level when listened to from the primary listening position.

Care and Cleaning

•Occasional dusting or wiping of the cabinet with a cloth is all that is required. Never use abrasive or solvent type cleaners or harsh detergents.

•A vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment may be used to clean the grille fabric.

•Never spray polishes or cleaners on the drive units (woofers, midranges or tweeters).
