If possible, the screw should be driven into a wall stud; if not, be sure to use appropriate anchors in the drywall or plaster. SPEAKERS TO AMPLIFIER:KEEPING IT STRAIGHT One of the most important things about hooking up your speakers is keeping them in the same polarity, or phase. If they are connected out of phase, bass and sound imaging will be degraded. The easiest way to ensure that your speakers are wired in phase is to always connect the positive and negative output terminals on your amplifier or receiver to the matching input terminals on your speakers:positive ("+", color-coded red) to positive and negative ("­", color-coded black) to negative. ) Most pre-terminated speaker cables have color-coded connectors that make it easy to match output and inputs correctl y. Any of the Klipsch Reference Series surround speakers can be set to Large in your receiver or processor's speaker setup menu if necessary. But if your system includes a good powered subwoofer or floorstanding front left and right speakers, you probably will get better overall performance by using the Small setting and letting the sub or the front speakers handle the low bass, especially when the woofers in the surrounds are less than 6. CARE AND CLEANING The only thing you should ever need to do to your speakers is dust them occasionally. Never apply any abrasive or solvent-based cleaner or any harsh detergent. You can clean the grilles with the brush attachment of a vacuum cleaner. AND CANADA ONLY The Warranty below is valid only for sales to consumers in the United States or Canada.
