User manual KLIPSCH ICON SERIES

[. . . ] USE only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over. UNPLUG this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time. REFER all servicing to qualified service personnel. [. . . ] With all connection types, take care that there is no contact between the positive and negative terminals at the speaker and amplifier. Damage to your equipment may result. Front Left and Right Speakers (See Figures 2A and 2B. ) · Place on a common wall 6 to 15 feet apart. · If used in a home theater system, position the speakers flanking your video display. · Position them equal distance from the back wall (if they are not wall-mounted. ) · Position them at the same height above the floor (for non-floor standing models) with the high frequency drivers at seated ear height. · Angle speakers toward the listener and even with or forward of any adjacent obstructions (if they are not wall-mounted. ) e · Placing them near a corner or wall provides the greatest amount of bass while moving the speakers away from room boundaries reduces bass energy. · Asymmetrical placement of a pair of speakers from adjacent side walls can smooth room-induced bass unevenness. · Bookshelf models may be placed on shelves or optional floor stands. · Experiment with the above guidelines to suit your taste and to compensate for your room's acoustic characteristics. Active Floorstander Connections (See figure 5. )(XF-48 only) · In addition to the standard connections, the speakers have an RCA-jack line-level input that can be used as an input from your A/V receiver or electronics. Do not connect both the standard SPEAKER IN and the LINE IN inputs at the same time as damage to your equipment could result. · Your floorstanding speakers have a built-in amplifier that needs to be connected to an AC outlet. Once plugged in, it will be either ON or in STANDBY depending upon the position of the AUTO POWER switch. You must unplug the power cord from the AC outlet to completely turn off your speaker during extended periods. vacations. ) Center Channel Speakers (See Figures 2A, 2B and 3. ) · Place immediately above or below the center of your video display. · These models are supplied with a tilt rod to compensate for placements above or below seated ear height. · Use the supplied rubber pad to protect the front bottom edge of the speaker. (See Figure 3. ) Active Floorstander Controls (See figure 5. )(XF-48 only) Power - This switch allows you to select either "AUTO" or "ON" for the speakers built in amplifier. When "AUTO" is selected, the speaker will automatically turn on when it senses a signal. It will automatically turn off after 20 minutes if no signal is present. In the "ON" setting the speaker will remain on as long as the AC power cord is plugged into a wall socket. The power indicator LED on the front panel will illuminate BLUE when speaker is on and RED when the speaker is in standby. The LED will be off if the AC power cord is not connected to an AC outlet. Input Sensitivity - This switch adjusts the level of the input signal to optimize the performance of the built-in amplifier.
