Preparation
Precautions before making connec-
tions
• When unpacking the speaker units, do not hold
them by their tweeters or woofers.
• Connect signal cables and power cords so that
they will not become caught on anything.
• Before turning the built-in amplifier on, minimize
the volume of the input signal. Turning it on
while inputting a loud signal could damage the
speaker.
• Do not continuously use it for a long time at a
loud volume. Doing so could harm your hearing.
• Use power cords, power outlets, audio signal
cables and connectors that are undamaged and
free of wiring shorts and other defects.
• Set the power switch to STANDBY before
connecting the power cord.
• Do not input signals other than audio signals.
• Before connecting an audio signal to this unit,
confirm that the level of the input signal is
minimized and the power switch of the built-in
power amplifier is set to STANDBY.
• Always use the correct polarity.
Connections
1. Set the power switch to STANDBY.
2. Connect the included AC adapter (PS-P1524E) to
the speaker and then to the power supply.
3. Use the included connection cable (RCA–6.3mm
(1/4”) standard TS jack) to connect the input
jack(s) of the active unit to the output device.
4. Use the included speaker cable to connect the
output terminal of the active unit to the input
terminal of the passive unit.
Installation
Installing speakers correctly is extremely important.
The volume of low frequencies will seem to change
according to the positions where the speakers are
installed. Test various installation positions to find
the best places for maximizing the capabilities of the
speakers.
• Place the active unit to the left and the passive
unit to the right.
• Place the speakers so that they form an
equilateral triangle with the listening position.
LEFT: Active unit
RIGHT: Passive unit
• Install each speaker so that the top of its woofer
is at ear height.
• Do not install speakers near mirrors, glass or
other surfaces that reflect sound. Do not place
anything between the speakers and the listening
position.
