Icon Series Loudspeaker

Thank you for your purchase of this Icon Series Loudspeaker. In total, there are five wood finish models within the Icon Series: the WF-35 and WF-34 floorstanding speakers, the WB-14 bookshelf speaker, the WC-24 center channel speaker and the WS-24 surround channel speaker.

All of these speakers utilize a new wide dispersion Tractrix® Horn- loaded tweeter with XTTM technology. This proprietary design radiates sound in a smooth, enveloping 80-degree by 80-degree pattern. As with all Klipsch horn-loaded technology, this version also produces more output using less energy and delivers the company’s signature dynamic sound.

Please be sure to fill out the product registration card included with this manual or online at www.klipsch.com so we are better able to serve you.

Inspection

Please check promptly for any transit damage. Carefully unpack your new speaker system and verify the components against the packing list. In extreme circumstances, items may have become damaged in transit. If any damage is discovered, notify the delivery service and dealer where the system was purchased. Make a request for inspection, and follow their instructions for evaluation. Be sure to keep the product’s original shipping carton.

Bookshelf and Center

These models are supplied with self-stick rubber feet to prevent surface damage. (See Figure 1 for proper application.)

Room Placement

Your Icon 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 2A and 2B.)

•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 equal distance from the front wall (if they are not wall-mounted).

•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 (if they are not wall-mounted).

•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, optional floor stands or on walls using appropriate brackets.

•Experiment with the above guidelines to suit your taste and to compensate for your room’s acoustic characteristics.

Its slim profile allows it to fit seamlessly into smaller spaces without sacrificing audio performance.

The WC-24 is a dedicated center channel speaker that plays a critical role in enhancing dialogue and clarity in a surround sound setup.
