- The line voltage selection switch must be set for the correct AC voltage present in the region of use (115VAC or 230VAC). Operating the speaker outside these voltages or opposite of the selector switch setting may damage the electronics.

The speakers should be positioned firmly on a level surface. Make sure that the supporting object can handle the load weight of the speaker. If a third party mounting bracket is used, confirm that the bracket is firmly mounted to the structure. Serious injury can occur from dislodged speakers.
The HT805C model comes with a tray for vertical ribbon alignment when it is placed below ear level (such as underneath a plasma screen). The HT805C can be moved front to back on this tray to adjust the vertical angle of the cabinet.

- The speaker position relative to the room’s side walls should not be within 33 percent of the distance to the back wall in order to smooth room nodes. For an example if the speaker is 4ft from the back wall it should be no more then 3ft or greater then 5.3ft from the side wall.
If bi-wiring is preferred, remove the links and run 2 pairs of separate cables between the speaker and amplifier. The ribbon is the top set of binding posts, the woofer(s) the bottom set. Depending on the cable used, this can sometimes improve resolution of low-level detail.

Audio Connection (cont.) The HT805W subwoofer will accept both line level signals via RCA jacks or speaker level signals from an amplifier via the binding posts. Do not use a mixture of line level and speaker level connections. Whenever possible, use the line level connections.

We recommend that all susceptible display devices maintain at least 12” clearance from the speaker enclosures. These would not include Plasma, projection or LCD televisions. Those technologies are immune to magnetic interference.
