safety preCautiONs
Prior to the installation of your speakers, read the following safety guidelines to help prevent
damage to any electrical components or harm to users.
• Do not place this product or any of its parts near heat or potential heat sources, nor in any
moist or damp environment.
• Do not hit, drop or mishandle electrical components in such a way as to loosen, break or
otherwise render inoperative any interior or exterior parts.
• Do not remove the back panel except as directed by a qualified technician in order to
minimize the possibility of electrical shock. If in need of repair or inspection, bring the
speaker(s) to a professional repair person.
• Should liquids or other materials (including fragments of broken parts) get inside the speaker
cabinet, immediately shut power off to the speaker and have it professionally inspected
and/or repaired before further operation.
• Turn off the power and unplug from power source when the system is not in use.

setup
1. Carefully unpack the speakers and cables. Do not lift or remove the speakers from the box
by the function knobs or other attachments as this may damage the speaker unit.
2. Place the right and left speakers and subwoofer in the desired listening location.
3. Attach the right and left speakers to the corresponding
Output jacks on the rear panel of the subwoofer unit.
4. Using the included RCA cable, connect the left and
right Input jacks on the rear panel of the subwoofer
unit to the corresponding Line Out or Audio Output
jack(s) of the audio source (tuner, computer, game
system or whatever). NOTE: Connect to the headphone jack
of the source if it’s the only output available.
5. Plug the AC power cord into an electrical outlet and set the
Power button on the rear panel of the subwoofer unit to the
On position to turn the speaker system on.
6. With the audio source turned on and generating an audio
signal, adjust the Volume and Bass controls on the side of the
subwoofer unit (adjusting the volume/audio output level on the

audio source as necessary). NOTE: If connecting to a computer, you may want to conduct a
sound card test. With the speakers properly connected and turned on, find the computer’s
sound card in the device manager and begin the test. Each channel should be able to be
tested for sound and link. With the “test” window still open, turn up the volume on each
channel (speaker). Test sound should be audible.
Suggestions for Setup & Operation
• Though featuring a magnetically shielded design so the speaker system is free from interference
when placed near a monitor or TV, the subwoofer can cause interference in other components.
Position the subwoofer at least 30 cm (1 ft.) away from monitors and TVs.
• If only one speaker emits CD audio when the system is plugged into a headphone jack, it’s
because WAV files and games normally transmit only one track of audio.
• Check all appropriate connections and controls (including those on the audio source) should one
or more of the speakers not be producing sound once power is on. NOTE: If adjusting the Bass
control doesn’t affect the audio output, it could simply be that the signal source doesn’t include
frequencies below 200 Hz.
