Page 3: Introduction
The sound quality of your speakers can be affected by the type of speaker wire that you use to connect them. While it is possible to use speaker wire as thin as 22 gauge to hook your speakers up, we recommend using the largest diameter wire that you can. -

AMPLIFIER OR RECEIVER HOOKUP For each speaker, connect the Positive (+) lead from your amplifier or receiver to the RED (+) INPUT terminal and connect the Negative (-) lead from your amplifier or receiver to the BLACK (-) INPUT terminal. See Figure 1. -
Page 5: Center Speaker
If the speakers will sit close to walls or other large objects, leave as much space as possible between the speaker and the object. Ideally, your speakers will be several feet from the nearest surface, but in most rooms compromise is necessary. -
Page 6: The Tripole Surround 25 Speaker
Think of it as a dipole surround speaker that includes a very high quality direct radiating speaker in the same cabinet. - Page 7 WALL LOCATION The surround speaker can be mounted on either the side walls or on the back wall, or even directly in a corner. They can be flush on the wall, on shelves, on brackets, etc. The Tripole's great flexibility makes it very forgiving of room placement that is less than optimum.

CENTER CHANNEL The Center channel speaker in a multichannel system is the most important speaker in the system. This speaker often produces more output than the left and right speakers combined. This speaker should be of the highest possible quality, and as similar as possible in response and radiation pattern to the left and right speakers. -
Page 9: Surround Channel
If the television is not in the center of the room (or not centered between the Left and Right speakers), the Center channel speaker should still be as close as possible to the screen -- even if it is outside the left and right speakers (such as a TV located in a corner of the room outside the stereo spread of the left and right speakers). -

SATELLITE SPEAKER The speakers should be a minimum of a few feet away from the nearest listener. If the speaker is located too close to a listener, its sound will become too directional and may distract that listener. Ideally, the surround speakers should not call attention to themselves and should not be audible as separate sources of sound. -
Page 11: Speaker Damage & How To Avoid It
You need to perform this test because when Main speakers are located separate from a Subwoofer, each speaker is at a different distance from your ear. In some cases, the difference will be just enough so that the output from the Subwoofer arrives out of phase with the output of the Satellites. When this happens, that critical mid-bass is actually cancelled. -
Page 12: M&K 5.1 Multichannel & Pro-Logic System Setup Guide
The best way to avoid speaker damage is to use common sense. Use moderate boosts of tone controls or equalizers, at the very most. Listen carefully for any harshness and break-up, especially at high volume levels, and turn down the volume when needed. - Page 13 SATELLITE SPEAKER If it is in the back of the room, place the subwoofer in a back corner. If possible, avoid corners near doorways or openings. If you are willing to experiment, another option is to place the subwoofer at the listening position and walk around the room.

Set all channels to exactly the same level. Use a Sound Level Meter. Point it directly at the speaker being measured. Set all channels to the same level, using the processor/receiver/receiver’s internal test signal. Set the meter to “C” weighting and “Slow”... -
