a.
Remove both jumpers.
b.
Connect one set of cables to the low-cable input and the other set to the
hi-cable input. Connect the other end of the cables together (o/-
polarity), and connect to one channel of the amplifier outputs. If frequency
specialized cables are used, connect them to their respective inputs. In
either case the other ends are connected to the same amplifier channel.
c.
Repeat same procedure for the other channel.

CAUTION-CAUTION-CAUTION
A.
The terminal plate states a maximum fuse value of 4 amps Type SAG ("normal"
or "fast blow"). We recommend that 4 amp fuses continue to be used. The bass
section does not require fusing protection. This fuse value should never be
increased or bypassed. Do not use slow-blow fuses. If these precautions are
taken, our destruct tests show that it is impossible to burn out these drivers.

For owners of cats, we recommend cat repellant around the base of the
speakers.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT
Proper speaker placement and room acoustics can have more effect on a music system than
upgrading one of the components in the system. Unfortunately, there is no definitive
guideline which will cover all possible listening rooms. Some experimentation is required for
locating the optimum position. The following are a few general guidelines:
A.
BASS RESPONSE
Play a record (or test signal) with repetitive bass. Try the speakers in several
possible locations in the room. Begin experimenting with the speakers about 3
feet from a back wall. Try moving the speakers forward or backward in
increments of 6 to 12 inches. One position in the room should be noticeably
better than others. Also experiment with your chair location. Positions close to a
wall will often result in increased bass (often too much). See Figure 3.
B.
STEREO WIDTH AND IMAGING
Once you have located the best position for the speakers and your chair for
bass performance, separate the speakers by 50% of the distance from your
chair to the speakers. (For example, if your chair is 10 feet from the speakers,
move the speakers 5 feet apart.) Now, move the speakers apart in increments
of 3 or 4 inches at a time, listening carefully at each position. At some point you
will start to hear two separate speakers instead of a "stage effect" (or continuous
