CONNECTIONS
All connections should be made with the equipment turned
off.
Be certain to connect the positive red (+) terminal of the
speaker to the positive red (+) output terminal on the
amplifier. Be certain to connect the negative black (-) terminal
of the speaker to the negative black (-) output terminal on the
amplifier. The speakers will sound out of phase (bass loss and
image distortion) if there is an error in your connection.
TRESS SPEAKER CABLES
Speaker cable is an important element of the overall
performance so ask your dealer about Totem Tress cable. Tress is a twisted pair
of 14-gauge, multi stand, linearized oxygen-free silver-plated conductors coated
in black and white Teflon. Dielectric shielding makes it impervious to damage
and oxidization. Tress can be run long distances -in-wall and around room and
maintain peak performance. It provides great extension in both high and low
frequencies, excellent spatial ability, has no capacitance buildup, and is FT4 rated. It is one of the best
performers out there, yet remarkably economical.
DECOUPLING
Totem recommends decoupling the loudspeaker with the
supplied feet to break down cabinet resonance for optimum
results. Turn the speaker upside down and apply the adhesive
backed feet to the 4 corners of the cabinet.
OUR THOUGHTS ON GRILLS
KIN Monitors come equipped with magnetically attaching grilles included in the box. This is a departure
from our original practise as for years we did not include grilles and only made them available as an
optional accessory. We firmly believe that our customized drivers are of the highest quality, the cabinet
is a timeless design, and the combination provides an extremely appealing esthetic.
Most importantly however, therefore, are the micro details that are lost when a grille, no matter how
supposedly acoustically transparent, is in place in front of the drivers. Totem's absolute dedication to
