Stand the loudspeaker upright, using great care not to damage connecting cables, furniture or the floor.

Lift off the top packing piece and the protective cloth bag.

Fitting and Removing the Grilles

5

Lift off the center and base packing pieces

The loudspeaker is ready for connection

The grilles are magnetically attached to the cabinet. Specially designed magnets are housed inside the front wall of the loudspeaker, so that if you wish to operate the loudspeaker with the grilles removed, no grille mounting hardware is visible. This preserves the smooth lines of the loudspeaker.

To fit the grilles: Fit the top grille first and line it up with the top and sides of the cabinet. There is a small lip on the top of the grille that should rest on the top of the cabinet. Now, fit the lower grille, lining up the top of the lower grille with the bottom of the upper grille. You may now remove the top grille if you wish.

What’s in the box?

The grille box contains: one upper grille; one lower grille.

The Accessories box contains: four long spikes; four short spikes; four spike seats; two bi-wiring

straps: one Allen wrench.

There is a pair of gloves located in a pocket in the side of the packing carton beside the Owner’s manual.

Identify all the components. If any item is missing or damaged, report this immediately to your Klipsch dealer and the transport contractor for action.

Although operating the P-39F loudspeakers with the grilles on or off is a matter of personal taste, moving or connecting the loudspeakers should always be done with the grilles removed. Be especially careful not to touch the drive units.
