INSPECTION

We want your new speaker system to look as good as it did
leaving the factory! Please check promptly for any transit
damage. Carefully unpack your new speaker system and verify
the components against the packing list. In extreme circum-
stances, items may have become damaged in transit. If any
damage is discovered, notify the delivery service and dealer
where the system was purchased. Make a request for
inspection, and follow their instructions for evaluation. Be sure
to keep the product’s original shipping carton.

POSITIONING YOUR REFERENCE SERIES SUBWOOFER

Klipsch powered subwoofers are designed to reproduce deep
bass and deliver the impact that makes your movies and music
come alive. Typically, optimum performance will result if you
place your subwoofer in a corner of the room on the same wall
as your front channel speakers (Refer to figures 1 & 2). Please
note that room placement can have a dramatic effect upon the
performance of your powered subwoofer. Corner placement, as
suggested above, will increase the amount of bass output, while
placing the subwoofer along the middle of a wall, or out in the
room will decrease the amount of bass output. Experiment with a
number of different placement options and control settings to
find the one that best suits your particular room and taste. When
choosing your subwoofer’s location, keep in mind that you will
need to connect the subwoofer’s built-in amplifier to an AC
power outlet.
