[. . . ] JBL disclaims any liability for the selection of suitable floor stands and/or correct compat- ibility between the selected stand and these satellite loudspeakers. The floor stand adapters are compatible with floor stands equipped with a 1/4"-20 threaded insert. Prepare the speaker wire as described on page 7. Thread the two conductors through the two holes in the floor stand + ­ adapter. Make sure to preserve the proper polarity (+ and ­ connections) by threading the positive conductor through the hole on the left, and the negative conductor through the hole on the right, looking at the front of the adapter. Push down on the red speaker terminal and insert the bare end of the positive wire into the hole under the red cap. Release the cap, and tug gently on the wire to make sure that the connection is snug. Follow the same procedure to connect the negative wire to its terminal. 5 + ­ + ­ Gently pull the slack out of the wire and screw the adapter onto the back of the speaker in two places, as shown. The floor stand adapter screws may be found in Hardware Bag B. Use the larger screw in the upper screw hole, and the smaller screw in the lower screw hole. Screw the floor stand adapter into the floor stand's threaded insert until the speaker is firmly attached to the stand. Back off slightly from the fully tightened position until the speaker is oriented as desired, then rotate the thumbwheel at the bottom of the floor stand adapter to secure the speaker to the stand.

[. . . ] Turn everything back on, and determine whether the problem has followed the speaker, or has remained in the same channel. If the problem is in the same channel, the source of the problem is most likely with your receiver or amplifier, and you should consult the owner's manual for that product for further information. If the problem has followed the speaker, consult your dealer for further assistance or, if that is not possible, visit www. jbl. com.
