PLACEMENT
(See Fig. 1 & Fig. 2)
The speaker can be placed on a stand below, and in front of the video screen
(TV), or it can be wall-mounted above or below the video screen as shown in
Fig. 1 (more about wall mounting later).
For surround speaker placement, see Fig. 2 for optional surround back. Note:
Surround back speakers should be centered approximately 2-3 feet above
the seated listener’s ear level.
MOUNTING OPTIONS
(See Fig. 3)
To wall mount your Saga speaker, it is supplied with two 1/4˝ - 20 inserts on
the rear of the enclosure. You can purchase many after-market universal
mounts that will work with the 1/4˝- 20 inserts and hang it on your wall, or
suspend it under your video display with metal straps from the video mount.
Be certain the mounting system you choose is rated to support the weight of
the speaker. Note: If you mount the speaker under your video screen, be
sure the vents (screened openings in top of the enclosure) are not blocked.
You can invert the enclosure so the vents point down to avoid blockage. The
system will work normally.
HOOKING UP YOUR SAGA SPEAKERS
(See Fig. 4)
STOP! – Make sure that you consult your amplifier’s owner’s manual
regarding speaker hook-up. Your amplifier should be turned off throughout
this procedure.
Most speaker wire is polarity coded. This means that each conductor is
labeled either (+) positive or (-) negative. The (+) positive side may be a
different color or texture than the (-) negative side. On the back of your
amplifier, each channel should be labeled (+) and (-) as well as color-coded
red for (+) positive and black for (-) negative. Saga speaker terminals are
color-coded red for (+) positive and black for (-) negative. Be sure to hook
(+) to (+), (red to red), and (-) to (-), (black to black). (See Fig. 4.) All
connections should be tight. Inspect connections for frays and stray strands
of wire touching both (+) and (-) terminals. (This will cause a short and,
perhaps, damage your equipment.)

INSTALLING & REMOVING THE GRILLE
The grille is held by pins. To remove the grille, pull gently around the edge away from the speaker. To re-install, align the grille
pins with the cups in the speaker and push into place.
CARE & CLEANING
You can clean your soundbar using a soft, lint-free cloth, slightly moistened with plain water. Do not use any other cleaning agents
or chemicals. Be careful not to get any water on the driver cones or tweeter dome. You can clean the grille with a quick pass from
a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment. Avoid placing your speaker in direct sunlight or near a source of heat that may, over
time, damage the finish.

GENERAL / CONTACT
If you should have a problem, first try to determine if it is indeed a speaker problem. Determine whether the problem exists in both
speakers. If it does, the problem most likely originates in some other components in the system. If the problem is in one speaker
only, reverse your speaker leads (left to right, right to left). If the problem moves to the other speaker, your problem is not in the
speakers.
Once you have determined that you have a speaker problem, contact your dealer for authorized factory service information. If you
are unable to contact your dealer, if your dealer is unable to solve your problem, or if you have any questions or comments
regarding your Saga Speaker System, please contact Skywalker’s Customer Care at (800) 844-9555.
