If you have any questions about your speaker system, please contact your M&K dealer or call the M&K factory directly at (818)

2. PLACEMENT OF YOUR SPEAKERS
Your M&K speakers can be installed in a wide variety of locations. Their compact size gives you great flexibility in installation. They can be placed on stands, shelves, or bookcases, or more permanently mounted using brackets, through direct attachment to a wall, or with a ceiling suspension system.
If you want to mount your speakers permanently using wood screws, their cabinet thickness is 1/2". Do not use longer screws, as you may damage the internally mounted crossover.
You can place the left and right speakers virtually anywhere in the room, but certain locations are better than others. In general, locate them away from obstructions that would interfere with the direct path from the speakers to your ears (such as walls, furniture, lighting, plants, etc.). Center channel speakers should be located close to the television screen (see Home Theater Usage on page 8). Your speakers will sound better when they are around ear height, or when angled towards your listening location. They sound better when they are not sitting on the floor.
For more detailed information on placement of your speakers, see Section 5 (page 6).
Your speakers are magnetically shielded. This means that you can locate them close to a television set or even directly on top of the set.
In some rare instances, a small amount of residual magnetism at a specific angle to your TV set may cause a slight geometric or color distortion of the picture on your television set. If you do get this distortion, try moving the speaker slightly until the distortion is reduced or disappears. Then turn the set off and wait 10 minutes before turning it back on to trigger the set's degaussing circuitry. If you cannot solve any magnetic problems, contact the M&K factory.
