User manual KLIPSCH REF III SURROUND

[. . . ] pLACEMENT The best locations for Klipsch Wide Dispersion Surround TechnologyTM surround speakers in a typical 5. 1-channel system are on or against the walls to the sides of the seating area, anywhere from adjacent to the listening position to about 20 degrees behind. )It is also desirable that they be mounted above the ear height of seated listeners (5'-7' high). Their WDSTTM design allows great flexibility, however, and good results can be achieved with configurations that depart significantly from the ideal. [. . . ] If yours do not, or if you are making your own out of paired, two-conductor wire, look for identifying marks on the insulation of the two conductors. Normally there will be printing, a stripe or a molded ridge along one of the conductors. CONNECTIONS Note: Proper connection of your speakers to your amplifier or receiver is vital to obtaining good sound quality. Klipsch Reference Series speakers are wired internally with Bandwidth BalancedTM Monster® Cable. bandwidth Balanced technology employs multiple gauges of highpurity copper wire , carefully selected and wound to ensure optimum signal transfer at all frequencies. You will obtain best performance from your speakers if you connect them to your amplifier or receiver with Monster Cable or similar quality wire available from your dealer. Use a lower gauge (heavier) wire for longer runs to reduce the amount of amplifier power lost due to the wire's resistance. Pull the two conductors apart for about an inch and strip approximately 1/4-inch of insulation from the end of each. (A wire stripper will simplify this, but you can use an ordinary pocket knife to cut around and through the insulation down to the wire. ) Twist the strands of wire on each individual conductor tightly together. Loosen the nuts on a pair of binding posts until the holes through the metal posts are exposed, then insert the bare wire through the holes. Make sure that no strands of wire are touching from one binding post to the other or to any strands from the other conductor. Failure to observe this precaution at either end of the connection can result in amplifier malfunction or damage. Loosen the nuts on a pair of binding posts until the holes through the metal posts are exposed, then insert the pins through the holes. Make sure that there is no metal-to-metal contact between the two pins or binding posts. Failure to observe this precaution at either end of the connection can result in amplifier malfunction or damage. Some speaker cables are terminated with U-shaped connectors called spade lugs. Loosen the nuts on a pair of binding posts and slip the spade lugs around the metal posts. Screw the nuts down finger-tight on the lugs and inspect to ensure they have remained firmly in place. Make sure that there is no metal-to-metal contact between the two lugs or binding posts. Failure to observe this precaution at either end of the connection can result in amplifier malfunction or damage. BASS MANAGEMENT SETTINGS Surround-sound receivers and processors use what is known as bass management to ensure that low frequencies in the various channels are sent to speakers that can handle them well and away from small speakers that cannot.
