Preparation
7 Attaching the feet
Attach the supplied feet on the bottom of the speaker, so that you
can protect the speaker cabinet, absorb the speaker vibration,
and prevent the speaker slipping.
· Place a large, thick cloth under the speaker in order to protect
the floor and the speaker.
When installing the speaker vertically
1 Stand the speaker upside down.
2 Attach the feet.
When installing the speaker horizontally
Install the speaker with the screw holes facing rightward.
1 Place the speaker with the side, where you attach the feet,
facing upward.
2 Attach the feet.
3 Attach the screw hole caps to the screw holes.
Warnings, Cautions and Others
7 Precautions for installation
· Do not install the speakers on an uneven surface or in a place
subject to vibration; otherwise, they may fall over, causing
damage or injury.
Take the occurrence of earthquakes or other physical
shocks into consideration when selecting the installation
place, and secure the speakers thoroughly.
· To prevent deformation or discoloration of the cabinet, do not
install the speakers where they are exposed to direct sunlight
or high humidity, and avoid installation near air conditioning
outlets.
· Speaker vibrations may cause howling. Place the speakers as
far away from the player as possible.
· The speakers are magnetically shielded to avoid color
distortions on TVs. However, if not installed properly, it may
cause color distortions. So, pay attention to the following when
installing the speakers.
When placing the speakers near a TV set, turn off the TV's
main power switch or unplug it before installing the
speakers.
Then wait at least 30 minutes before turning on the TV's
main power switch again.
Some TVs may still be affected even though you have followed
the above.
If this happens, move the speakers further away from the TV.
· Tuner reception may become noisy or hissing if a speaker is
installed near the tuner.
In this case, leave more distance between the tuner and the
speakers or use an outdoor antenna for better tuner reception
without interference from the speakers.
7 Precautions for daily use
· To maintain the appearance of the speakers
Wipe with a dry, soft cloth if the cabinet should become
dirty.
If very dirty, wipe with a cloth applied a small amount of
water or neutral detergent, then wipe with a dry cloth.
Do not use chemicals such as benzine and thinner for
cleaning the cabinet.
· To improve the sound field
It is recommended to leave a space of more than 50 cm
between the speakers and the wall.
If the speakers are facing a solid wall or glass door, etc., it is
recommended to furnish the wall with materials that absorb
sounds, for example by hanging up thick curtains, to prevent
reflections and standing waves.
· To use the speakers without any trouble
Do not reproduce sounds at so high a volume that they are
distorted; otherwise, the speakers may be damaged by
internal heat buildup.
When moving the speakers, do not pull the speaker cords;
otherwise, the speakers may fall over, causing damage or
injury.

Connection
7 Precautions
Before connecting:
· Turn off the power to the amplifier before connecting the
speaker system; otherwise, the speakers may be damaged.
· The impedance of the speaker is 6
.
If this does not match with the speaker impedance range
indicated on the amplifier, you cannot connect this system to
the amplifier.
· The maximum power handling capacity of the SX-WD8 is
150 W. Excessive input will result in abnormal noise and
possible damage.
· Be sure to turn down the volume level on the amplifier to
prevent unwanted noise before performing following
operations:
Turning on or off other components
Operating the amplifier
Tuning FM stations
Fast-forwarding a tape
Continuously reproducing high frequency oscillation or high
pitch electronic sounds
Connecting or disconnecting a microphone
· When using a microphone, do not aim it at the speakers or
use it near the speakers; otherwise, the howling which occurs
may damage the speakers.
· Before replacing the cartridge, always turn off the power both
to the amplifier and to the turntable; otherwise, the clicking
noise may damage the speakers.
7 Connecting the speaker system to the amplifier
· Twist and remove the insulation at the end of
each speaker cord before connecting.
· Make sure to match the polarity (
ª and ·); otherwise, the
surround effect will become less effective.
