Pinnacle Microburst MB5000 Owner'S Manual Download Page 2

 

 

We appreciate your choosing Pinnacle’s Microburst speakers for use in your Home 

Theater & audio system.  These unique speakers will provide you with surprisingly 

powerful and satisfying sound from a stylish & compact package.  Please read this 

manual completely to ensure the best possible performance from your Home Theater or 

sound system. 

 
SPEAKER PROTECTION: 

One special feature of the Microburst speakers is an overload protection circuit 

designed to help protect the speaker from accidental overload.  This protection circuit 

will automatically attenuate the overall output of a speaker when it senses excessive 

volume level.  If you hear this protection circuit engaging, (and it will be obvious when 

this occurs), please turn down your receiver’s volume.  Your speaker will quickly return 

to its normal operation. 

 
CONNECTIONS: 

Complete all wire connections in your Home Theater/Sound system before powering 

up your receiver. Be sure to observe proper polarity for all speaker wire connections: 

receiver PLUS (red terminal) to speaker PLUS, receiver MINUS (black terminal) to 

speaker minus. For the best results, we recommend 12, 14 or 16 gauge wire; consult 

your dealer for options. 

 
To connect your speaker  wire to your speaker's binding posts, twist the bare wire 

strands together tightly, then insert through the hole which becomes visible when the 

knurled knob is screwed counterclockwise.  The wire must then be secured by 

screwing the knob back clockwise until snug.  Remember, loose strands of wire may 

cause short circuits. Upon completion, gently tug at all connections to ensure they are 

fastened securely and re-check for correct polarity. 

 
 

LIMITED TRANSFERABLE WARRANTY 

 

WHAT IS COVERED: All Pinnacle Microburst speakers are covered by this warranty 
for a period of seven (7) years from the date of the original purchase.  The warranty 
covers all necessary parts and labor to return the speaker to proper working order.  
Cabinet surfaces, grille assembly, and other exterior parts subject to normal wear and 
tear are not covered except where an inherent structural defect becomes evident. 
Parts replacement and labor will be performed at the discretion of the company 
(Pinnacle Loudspeakers) and will be provided free of charge unless (in the opinion of 
our service department, service representatives, or engineering department) the 
speaker system has failed due to abuse or negligent operation.  Any latent defect 
attributable to error in manufacture will always be covered by this warranty. 

 

WHAT IS NOT COVERED: This warranty will be void and no free services performed 
if we or any party acting as our agent determines that the speaker system in question 
has had any of its loudspeaker elements (woofer, midrange, tweeter, etc.) or internal 
circuitry removed or tampered with in any way whatsoever without express prior 
authorization from Pinnacle.  Furthermore, if the speaker system is not found to be 
defective a service charge will be levied.  In either case the minimum charge will be 
$30.00. An additional charge will be applicable for same day service if requested 
(subject to feasibility).  This charge will always be in effect even if the actual parts and 
labor are covered by this warranty. Any damage caused to the speaker system from 
improper use is not covered by warranty.  Pinnacle Loudspeakers reserves the right 
to make the final determination of whether or not a particular speaker system has 
been damaged by abuse or excessive overload.  

 

TO OBTAIN SERVICE: To obtain service under this warranty, either contact your 
Pinnacle dealer or us directly at (516) 576-9052 or  [email protected].

ship your speakers you are responsible for packing and shipping insurance.  The 
freight must be prepaid.  We will, however, pay return freight charges on any returned 
speaker that qualifies for in-warranty service.  Sorry, we cannot accept any collect 
freight charges.  You must include a note, attached to the unit, with your name, phone 
number or email address, and return shipping address (no Post Office boxes), 
indicating the nature of the problem you are experiencing.  For warranty service you 
must also include a copy of your sales receipt. If the speaker returned to us or our 
agents for service proves not eligible for warranty repairs or is not found to be 
defective, then you will have to pay return freight charges. Please be sure to pack any 
items you ship us carefully since we cannot be held responsible for damages incurred 
during shipping.  This warranty may be transferred to a subsequent owner, but will not 
be in effect for a period greater than seven (7) years from the date of the original 
purchase. SAVE THIS CERTIFICATE AND YOUR SALES RECEIPT.  YOU MAY
