[. . . ] While each Klipsch speaker must meet certain specific criteria on its own, it is the careful and deliberate design of the speakers as a system that results in even and all-encompassing sound. Voice, or timbre, matching ensures that the resulting outputs have similar sonic characteristics, meaning as sound moves throughout the listening area from speaker to speaker, it is seamless and enveloping. For a truly complete home theater, you need closely matched components capable of accurately reproducing all of the detail and dynamic range of the source material. Klipsch recommends the following grouping of components to complete your Klipsch Legend Home Theater: 2­SCR-3 10 Towers 1­SCR-3-C7 Center Channel 2­KSF-S5 Rear Surrounds 1­KSW 200 Powered Subwoofer 2­SCR-3 20 Towers 1­SCR-3-C7 Center Channel 2­KSP-S6 Rear Surrounds 1­KSW 200 Powered Subwoofer 2­SCR-3 30 Towers 1­SCR-3-C7 Center Channel 2­KSP-S6 Rear Surrounds 1­KSW 300 Powered Subwoofer Component Specifications LEGEND SCR-3 10 TOWER Sensitivity: 98 dB @ 1 watt/1 meter Frequency Response: 32 Hz-20 kHz±3 dB Nominal Impedance: 8 ohms Crossover Frequency: 2300 Hz Power Handling: 150 watts maximum continuous (600 watts peak) Enclosure Type: Bass reflex via a single, wide-flare, rear firing port Drive Components: Two-way system using one 1" (2. 54 cm) K-100-K tweeter/midrange compression driver with a 90ºx 60º Tractrix Horn and two 10" (25. 4 cm) K-1056-K woofers Weight: 65 lbs.

The Spike Kit Contains: 4­Threaded Spikes (one end pointed, the other blunt) 4­Jam Nuts 4­Spike Covers To Install the Feet: 1. Remove the vinyl cap from the cabinet insert. Thread the jamb nut onto the pointed end of the spike. Slide the blunt end of the threaded spike through the bottom (narrow end) of the spike cover and seat the jamb nut into the hexagonal well in the foot. Since this often requires the use of differing brands of pre-amp and power amplifiers, which may not be compatible, consult your dealer for guidance. Klipsch Legend Series Center Channel The Legend SCR-3-C7 is designed specifically for use as a center channel. As such, it uses magnetic shielding in all of its drivers to minimize picture discoloration and distortion from stray magnetic fields. PLACEMENT OF THE CENTER CHANNEL The center channel should be placed above or below (or behind, in the case of a perforated front projection screen) the center line of the video screen since these sounds are intended to appear to be coming from the central area of the image. A center channel speaker improves the intelligibility of dialogue in complex passages and keeps these sounds anchored to the central area of the screen even when the viewing seat is not centrally located. Installation of the SCR-3-C7 Feet The SCR-3-C7 is supplied with a pair of adjustable feet to angle the speaker up or down depending on placement. Aim the speaker directly at listening height. If the SCR-3-C7 does not need to be angled, cover the threaded inserts on the bottom of the cabinet with the self-stick rubber pads supplied. The Adjustable Foot Kit Contains: 2­Threaded Spikes (one end pointed, the other blunt) 2­Jam Nuts 2­Vinyl Caps 4­Self-Stick Rubber Feet For Low Placement, angle the SCR-3-C7 upward by screwing the two threaded rods into the inserts at the front edge of the cabinet. For High Placement, angle the SCR-3-C7 down by screwing the two threaded rods into the inserts at the rear edge of the cabinet. This technology utilizes two horn tweeters aligned at 90° to one another to create an optimal 180° soundfield. The resulting wide and evenly dispersed soundfield delivers both the direct, localized sounds and the ambient effects that make it perfectly suited for rear channel surround applications. This unique Klipsch approach is ideal for the latest multi-channel 5. 1 (Dolby Digital® and DTS ®) soundtracks on DVD and laser disc formats, making Klipsch truly "Digital Ready. " PLACEMENT OF THE KLIPSCH SURROUND SPEAKERS One of the principal advantages of Klipsch's unique Wide-Dispersion Surround Technology is greater placement flexibility. Due to the full 180° coverage pattern, you can place these speakers on the rear wall, side walls or even on the ceiling. [. . . ] High quality speaker cable can make an audible improvement in the sound of your speakers. Your Klipsch dealer can assist you with selecting the proper cable to ensure optimal performance from your loudspeakers. Your Klipsch dealer can advise and consult on other combinations that will be well-matched, though the above system was designed and tested by Klipsch Engineering for the ultimate in home theater performance. The demands of the latest source materials, such as six-channel motion picture sound and multichannel music recordings, have made matched speaker systems of paramount importance. To duplicate all the effects movie directors and sound engineers have built into today's films, you need faithful reproduction of the original signals, precise directional information and accurate dynamic expression.
